Sprint With Sprinters

At Sprinto, your work has purpose — and your life has space. We are a workplace where you’re empowered to execute on your most ambitious ideas and deliver your best output in a fast-paced, innovative, and supportive environment.

Joining Sprinto means you will never run alone; you will always have the freedom to take your shot and the support to go farther than you imagined.

What the Role Involves: The Forward Deployment Engineer sits at the intersection of customer operations and technical execution. You will work directly with customers to understand how they currently manage their governance, risk and compliance workflows — then translate those needs into live Sprinto workflows. This is a cross-functional builder role inside Customer Experience & Product Management focused on fast time-to-value, strong customer trust, and repeatable deployment patterns.

Key Responsibilities

• Run structured discovery with customer admins, IT/security owners, and business stakeholders to map current-state processes, systems, pain points, and desired outcomes.
• Design the target workflow in Sprinto across entities, owners, automations, checks, approval paths, evidence flows, questionnaires, and AI-assisted actions.
• Configure and deploy customer solutions across Sprinto modules and connected systems; use APIs and custom integrations when native workflows are not enough.
• Build technical assets when needed — API mappings, data transforms, simple scripts, test plans, and troubleshooting guides.
• Develop on the production codebase to extend feature capabilities across the platform
• Own deployment execution from scoping to go-live, including validation, risk management, issue resolution, and structured handoff to CSM/support teams.
• Pilot solutions with customers, define success criteria, monitor adoption, and iterate based on exceptions, usage signals, and stakeholder feedback.
• Convert repeated customer requests into reusable playbooks, templates, accelerators, and design patterns that improve future deployments.

• Partner closely with Solutions Engineers, CSMs, GRC experts, Product, and Engineering to balance customer customisation with repeatability and product direction.
• Support escalated post-go-live workflow issues where the fix requires technical depth, process redesign, or new deployment patterns

Required Skills & Competencies

• Customer problem structuring — ability to convert ambiguous customer conversations into precise, actionable problem statements
• Solution design judgment — strong instinct for when to configure, extend, or build from scratch
• Full-stack engineering execution — ability to implement production-quality changes across APIs, backend systems, and integrations
• Agent-driven development — proficiency in using LLM/agent systems (e.g., clause-based agents) to generate, modify, and validate code
• Prompt & workflow design — designing reliable prompts, tools, and execution flows for consistent agent behavior
• System integration & APIs — deep understanding of integrating external systems, handling data flow, and managing edge cases
• Rapid prototyping & iteration — shipping quick solutions, testing with users, and refining in tight feedback loops
• Debugging & adaptability — diagnosing issues across both human-written and agent-generated code
• Stakeholder communication — clear, concise communication with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Product sense & feedback looping — identifying repeat patterns and feeding insights back into product and platform improvements

Good to Have:

• Exposure to cloud and business systems such as AWS, Azure, GCP, Google Workspace, Okta, Jira, GitHub/GitLab, HRIS, ticketing, or workflow tools.
