Forward-Deployed Software Engineer

Hoshii

Zurichfulltime

Apply on the employer's site

Role description

The inbox was never built to run a business. Orders get missed, RFQs go cold, and every line gets retyped into the ERP by hand — one email, one PDF, one WhatsApp message at a time. We built AI Coworkers that do most of the repetitive work nobody wants to do instead: they read what comes in, sort it, draft linked actions, and post clean entries straight into the customer's systems of record. The team approves; Hoshii does the rest.

We are the ones driving, train-riding and flying to customers, running the workshops, and staying up past the demo to make the PoC actually work — and we can't scale that forever. We are looking for a Forward-Deployed Software Engineer to become the technical face of Hoshii in front of the companies who actually run on our product: someone who can walk into a customer's office, understand exactly where the manual pain lives, build a working proof of concept in days rather than weeks, and take it all the way to production — then stay accountable for it once it's live. You'll follow Amazon's "you build it, you run it" principle: whatever you ship for a customer, you own operationally too. You will join the founding team building the AI Coworker that operations teams actually run their order desk on.

Tasks

  • Run on-site and remote discovery directly with customers: map their order-to-cash workflows, identify the real pain points behind the stated requirements, and translate them into technical scope.

  • Build and demo working proofs of concept fast, iterating directly with customer stakeholders rather than through a requirements document.

  • Own end-to-end deployment: integrate Hoshii's agents with the customer's ERP/CRM systems, configure the workflow, and take it live in production.

  • Follow the
    "you build it, you run it"
    principle: stay accountable for what you deployed, monitor it in production, and be the first responder when something breaks for that customer.

  • Feed field learnings back into the product roadmap — you're often the first to see where the product breaks down against a real workflow, and that signal needs to shape what we build next.

  • Work closely with our channel partners to keep the underlying integrations reliable across every customer running on their systems.

  • Write clean, tested, maintainable code — you're not just configuring, you're building.

Requirements

We are looking for team players with a growth mindset, an entrepreneurial spirit, and genuine comfort being the person in the room with the customer:

  • Strong fullstack coding and debugging skills — comfortable moving across frontend, backend, and infra as the deployment demands — with proven experience building and shipping production software (
    Python
    ,
    Javascript/Typescript
    , or similar).

  • Proven experience building and running
    GenAI PoCs
    end-to-end: prototyping fast with LLMs/agents, then hardening what works into something a customer can actually run in production.

  • Solid understanding of systems and how they integrate — APIs, data pipelines, microservices, event-driven architectures — and the judgment to know where deep integration is worth the effort and where it isn't.

  • A pragmatic
    80/20 instinct
    : you ship the 20% that unblocks the customer's real problem instead of gold-plating the other 80%.

  • Experience working directly with customers — PoCs, technical scoping, on-site deployments, or a similar consulting/pre-sales-adjacent engineering background.

  • Familiarity with
    ERP/CRM systems
    is a strong plus.

  • Genuinely
    product-minded
    : you instinctively separate what a customer says they want from what they actually need, and you enjoy shaping the roadmap, not just executing it.

  • Excellent communication skills in
    English
    and
    German (C1 or above)
    ;
    Swiss German
    is a strong plus.

  • Comfortable with regular travel to customer sites across DACH.

  • Strong sense of ownership
    : you treat what you deploy as yours to run, not just to hand off.

Benefits

  • Autonomy and Ownership
    : You're in charge of your time at Hoshii; decide what you want to do, align with the team, and go for it!

  • Stock Options
    : Ever owned your impact? Well, at Hoshii you get stock options, allowing you to get something back from our collective success story.

  • A World-Class Team
    : We're a team of servant leaders who work hard and put customers first; we hail from top companies and universities, and we hold ourselves to the highest standards.

  • Amazing Office Location
    : We have a lakeside location in Zürich with cozy corners to relax, fostering a comfortable environment where you can thrive.
