Flatfile helps developers to build the ideal file import user experience and turn “flat” files into API-ready data.
The Role
Forward Deployed Engineer - Flatfile Editions™️

Flatfile is full of builders driven by a dual desire to make cool stuff and create tangible value. We pride ourselves on obsessing over the details but also grounding our decision-making and pace in whether we’re doing what’s in the best interest of our end users.

This is a highly technical and strategic role operating at the core of our partnership strategy.
You’ll act as the primary Technical Lead for our NetSuite and Workday Editions, building a best-in-class version of Flatfile for each respective ecosystem in collaboration with our SMEs on both platforms.

As the Technical Lead, you will spearhead the technical implementation of the Editions - from schemas to integrations - leveraging best practices to accelerate the time-to-value of these offerings.

Success in this role demands deep technical fluency, business systems-level thinking, and the ability to translate evolving customer requirements into scalable, production-ready solutions.

This role reports to: Technical Chief of Staff

Why are we hiring for this now?

Flatfile is experiencing a strong market pull for our Editions, and we are planning for rapidly accelerating growth and tons of runway.

The Strategy Organization at Flatfile is lean, hungry, and a sharp team playing for a huge outcome.

As we bring on more complex and high-value partners, we have a need for an experienced, hands-on builder to ensure we can support the scale of $100M of each Edition. We have an ambitious roadmap ahead of us and need someone excited to lead the charge on the technical implementation.

We want you to be a part of this.

In this role, you will:

Spearhead the End-to-End Edition Roadmap

  • Build, refine, iterate, and forward deploy by any means necessary

  • Engage and collaborate with our System TPMs, who are interfacing with partners to define our ongoing roadmap

  • Interact with our TPMs and Partners to grasp business processes, data structures, and integration requirements

Architect and Scale toward Product/Partner Fit

  • Collaborate with TPMs to translate complex customer needs into solutions

  • Use Flatfile’s APIs and code to solve unique challenges brought on daily

Drive Cross-Functional Execution

  • Work as a technical leader with the Strategy org (Flat Strat)

  • Collaborate with product, engineering, and sales to ensure customer feedback closes product gaps and aligns with the overarching goals of the business

Be the Edition Expert for Market Dominance

  • Serve as the technical authority, designing a customized Flatfile solution that makes it the undisputed leader in automating data migration within the NetSuite and Workday ecosystems

  • Document technical solutions and best practices to train and empower partners teams

  • Evangelize what we are building with these Editions internally, creating shared language and frameworks that are streamlined/replicable for rapid growth into new markets (e.g., Salesforce)

Consider applying if the following sounds like you:

Technical Acumen

  • 5+ years of experience building software, track record of building and delivering scalable solutions

  • Deep hands-on proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, and other development tools for scripting, automation, and API integrations

  • Expertise in data manipulation and integration, with a clear understanding of data conversion and API consumption (REST, GraphQL, SOAP - both NetSuite & Workday are reliant)

Strategic Problem-Solving

  • A proven ability to conduct effective discovery, translate complex business needs into technical specifications, and solve difficult problems with a bias for action

  • Demonstrated experience managing multiple high-priority projects simultaneously with little direction, making key decisions, and prioritizing effectively in a fast-paced environment

  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences, including executive leadership.

Bonus Points

  • Expertise in NetSuite, Workday, or Salesforce implementations

  • A background in customer support

  • Ability to build and maintain strategic relationships

  • Eager to learn more to be a high-output startup operator and/or future founder

Compensation Range: $165K - $200K
