Role Description
 
You'll embed with our enterprise customers as the engineer who makes Valdera work in their world. Every customer is different: their data lives in different systems, in different shapes, behind different rules. Discovery will be a big part of this job. You'll spend time sitting with a customer, figuring out where their data actually lives, what it looks like, and what it takes to connect it to Valdera. Often that means ERP and procurement data, but no two integrations look the same, and part of your job is figuring out what the patterns are.
You'll sit at the intersection of product, engineering, and the customer. When a customer wants their data flowing into Valdera or a workflow configured, you're the one spearheading that effort with them. This will include writing real code, building real integrations, and debugging real production issues, all while working closely with their procurement and IT team or presenting to their leadership. It's an engineering role with a customer in the room, and the engineers who thrive here find that combination energizing, not draining.
