Your Impact
Procurement is over 50% of revenue for industrial companies and their biggest lever for profitability. The hard part is not the software, it is that every customer's reality is different: a different ERP, a different data model, decades of undocumented process. Generic platforms stall exactly there, and that is where most enterprise AI value quietly dies.
Forward Deployed Engineering is how we close that gap. You sit inside the customer's environment, build in their production data, and turn what you learn there into product. You are one of the first FDEs at Tacto, so you are not slotting into a playbook, you are writing it while shipping in real accounts.
Your Tasks
Build in customer environments. Data pipelines, agents, and custom logic on top of the Tacto platform, in real production data.
Own the technical side of a deployment. Extraction, mapping, validation, enrichment, until the customer's procurement team can actually work with the result.
Be in the room, on site. Run data workshops with key users, debug alongside their IT, and see how a company really buys instead of how the process documentation says it buys.
Turn what you learn at the edge into product. Document the pattern and push it to Product and Engineering instead of quietly rebuilding the same one-off for the next customer.
Automate your own job. If a step in a deployment can be done by an agent, you build the agent and prove it works.
Make it one team. Hold the boundary with Solution Engineering and Customer Value so the customer experiences one Tacto, not three.
Your Profile
• You are a builder. You have shipped software, automations, agents, or technical projects that real users relied on.
• You write code yourself. You are comfortable with Python and SQL and use AI coding tools to move fast.
• You are AI-native. You have built with LLMs against real data and understand where agents work, where they fail, and where humans still matter.
• You thrive in messy environments. Incomplete requirements, undocumented data, and conflicting stakeholder input do not stop you from making progress.
• You can earn customer trust. You explain technical decisions clearly, handle pushback, and do not over-promise.
• You have 0-4 years of experience with evidence of a steep learning curve through strong technical work, ambitious startups, internships, or things you built from zero.
• You speak native-level German and fluent English , are based in Munich, and are willing to travel regularly across DACH.
Why This Role is Awesome
You get to combine building software with seeing exactly how it creates value in the real world. You will ship into production, work directly with industrial customers, and turn what you learn at the edge into product improvements. Do this well for 12 to 18 months and you are among the people who defined what Forward Deployed Engineering means at Tacto, with a direct line into the product roadmap and an obvious next step, whether that is leading a team, going deeper into product, or owning a segment.
What This Role Is, and Isn't
We want to be honest about what you are signing up for.
• This is not an engineering role with customers kept at a safe distance. Customer contact is the job, not a tax on the job. If you want a ticket queue and clean requirements, this is the wrong role.
• This is not consulting. Nobody here bills days. You are measured on what the customer can do afterwards and on what made it into the platform.
• It is deliberately broad. If you want to specialise narrowly you will be frustrated here.
• The deal: prove yourself, deliver real impact, make a strong case for yourself, then we back your next step in every way we can.
Why Tacto
We bet on young talent and mean it. We consistently back smart, hungry, young people with real ownership early. 70%+ of our Leadership Team was promoted internally: you deliver impact and sky is the limit at Tacto.
Backed to win big. We are Sequoia and Index-funded with €50M+ behind us. Our founders sit at the same table as the people defining the global AI agenda. We're building Tacto to be the lighthouse for European industrial AI.
A truly AI-native organization, with every resource you could dream of. All the leading AI tools and custom agents at your fingertips, plus dedicated people who keep us at the frontier.
High bar, high speed, genuinely fun. You'll be surrounded by extremely smart and ambitious people who set the bar high and push you to get better every week. Intense, fast, and the opposite of boring.
A front-row seat in the European startup ecosystem. Weekly exposure to leading founders and operators through internal and external events (Lunch & Learns, hackathons, community gatherings). Check out all upcoming and past events here: https://luma.com/tacto
You'll build something that lasts and that matters. You'll help build the company that keeps European industry competitive for the long term.…
