Forward Deployed Engineer

Excerpt from the original posting

TL;DR – We’re looking for an exceptional Forward Deployed Engineer to help build the future of AI-powered software creation. You will be a founding member of our FDE function, working directly with our customers to translate ambitious ideas into real products. This is a hands-on software engineering role: you will design, write, and ship production code. It’s a unique opportunity to scale a new discipline from scratch and solve problems with AI that no one has solved before.

Why Lovable? 
Lovable is the software creation platform that gives people the power to act on the problems closest to them. For decades, turning an idea into software required so much capital, technical fluency, and time that many ideas never came to life. Lovable is the counterargument: a platform for all people with ideas, ambition, and problems worth solving. From solopreneurs to small business owners to teams at companies like Adidas and Zendesk, people have built over 60 million projects on Lovable since its launch in November 2024. And we’re just getting started.
We’re building a generational company from Stockholm, with growing teams in London, Boston, New York, and San Francisco. Our team is small, talent-dense, and moving quickly, with a culture rooted in extreme ownership, high velocity, and low-ego collaboration. We look for people who care deeply, ship fast, and are eager to make a dent in the world.
Lovable is one of TIME’s 100 Most Influential Companies and has been recognized on the Forbes AI 50 and CNBC Disruptor 50, reflecting our momentum as one of Europe’s fastest-growing AI companies and one of the most ambitious places to build in this next era of software.

About the role 
Most engineering roles place you either close to the product or close to the customer. This role gives you both.
You’ll build alongside customers at the frontier of what Lovable can do, solving technically difficult problems across our frontend, backend and AI systems. The goal isn’t simply to make individual deployments successful: it’s to identify what should become part of the Lovable platform and then build it.
As one of our first Forward Deployed Engineers, you’ll also help define the function - from its engineering standards and ways of working to how it collaborates with customers and our core product teams.
If you want to stay deeply hands-on while shaping a product, a team and a new engineering discipline, this is that role. As you’ll be working directly with customers, travel up to 50…
