About the role

Lead the Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) team to onboard and deliver end-to-end deployments for Doppel’s largest enterprise customers, shaping technical direction, building scalable integration solutions, and turning field learnings into reusable product capabilities.

Responsibilities

  • Lead FDE technically. Set technical direction, mentor engineers, unblock complex projects, and raise the engineering bar while remaining hands-on.
  • Own our most strategic deployments. Join customers from technical discovery through production rollout, identifying onboarding friction, scoping solutions, and driving the engineering work required to get them live.
  • Build end-to-end solutions. Architect, build, and debug across APIs, webhooks, SIEM/SOAR platforms, identity systems, email infrastructure, and the broader enterprise security stack.
  • Turn field work into product. Identify patterns across customer deployments and turn bespoke solutions into reusable product and platform capabilities.
  • Make deployment increasingly scalable. Build the systems, automation, and internal tooling that make every new customer faster and easier to launch than the last.
  • Shape the product from the field. Create a tight feedback loop between customers, GTM, Product, and Engineering so what we're learning from our largest customers influences what we build.
  • Help shape FDE's technical boundaries. Develop strong judgment around what FDE should build, what should graduate into core product or platform, and where FDE should partner with other engineering teams.

Qualifications

  • Strong software engineering foundation. 6+ years building and shipping production software, with the technical depth to make architecture decisions and contribute directly to the codebase.
  • Technical leadership experience. You've set technical direction, mentored engineers, and driven complex projects while remaining hands-on.
  • Customer-facing technical depth. You've worked directly with complex enterprise customers, can uncover technical needs, and can turn ambiguous problems into scoped production systems.
  • Experience with enterprise systems. You're comfortable working across APIs, webhooks, identity and authentication (OAuth, SAML, SCIM), and enterprise infrastructure. Experience with security platforms or SIEM/SOAR ecosystems is a plus.
  • Product instincts. You recognize patterns across customer needs and know when something should remain customer-specific versus becoming a reusable product or platform capability.
  • High agency in ambiguity. You cut through organizational and technical blockers to get things done and coordinate across Sales, Customer Success, Product, and Engineering.
  • Strong technical judgment and communication. You can move between customer calls, system design, debugging with an engineer, and Product collaboration.
  • AI-native mindset. Experience with LLMs, agents, or AI-powered workflows is a plus; enthusiasm for using AI to transform technical customer work.
