Responsibilities

Work directly with customers: Understand their workflows, constraints, and goals. Help them succeed with Alguna, fast
Build forward-deployed solutions: Ship integrations, custom workflows, data pipelines, and product extensions that unlock customer value
Close the loop back into the product: Turn repeated customer needs into scalable product improvements and reusable patterns
Be reactive (in a good way): When something breaks or a customer is blocked, you jump in, triage, fix, and communicate clearly
Own implementations end-to-end (the fun kind): From 'wait, what do you actually need?' → design → build → deploy → monitor → iterate. If it’s flaky at 2am, you’ll care
Create paved paths: Build templates, tooling, docs, and automation so the next customer goes live faster than the last
Partner cross-functionally: Work tightly with engineering, product, and customer success to prioritize, scope, and ship

Required

You're customer-obsessed: You want to live close to real users and real problems
You get energy from turning 'this is painful' into 'this is fixed.'
You're a builder who ships: You don't just advise or prototype. You deliver working solutions that run in production
You thrive in ambiguity: Early-stage means unclear requirements, moving targets, and learning as we go
You can still make progress fast
You're relentlessly pragmatic: You'll make smart tradeoffs to get value out quickly, then iterate once we know what matters
You're technical and versatile: You can jump across codebases, APIs, data, infra, and integrations
Whatever the bottleneck is, you go there
You communicate clearly: You can translate between customer context and engineering reality without losing nuance (or patience)
You're efficiency-obsessed: You automate repetitive work, reduce manual steps, and shorten time-to-value for customers
You use AI as leverage: You use AI tools to speed up debugging, integration work, scripting, docs, and iteration—while owning correctness and security
Work directly with customers: Understand their workflows, constraints, and goals
