ABOUT THE ROLE
We're hiring a Deployment Engineer to be Squint's technical bridge between our platform and the real world: the factory floors, job sites, and utility yards where our customers actually work.
This isn't a configuration job. Our customers' environments are messy and industrial — legacy systems, spotty connectivity, workers in the field wearing AR headsets instead of sitting at a desk. You'll write real production code to make Squint's knowledge graph and AI workflows work in that environment, for that customer, this week.
You'll work closely with our founding engineering team, embedding directly with named accounts to turn ambiguous operational problems into shipped, working deployments.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
You'll be the engineer accountable for getting Squint live at a customer site and proving out its value. You will:
- Own deployments end-to-end: From kickoff to go-live, you'll be the engineer accountable for getting Squint live and delivering value at a customer site — no handoffs, no hiding behind a ticket queue.
- Build, don't just configure: You'll write production code — integrations, custom workflows, data pipelines — to adapt Squint to each customer's systems, equipment, and terminology.
