About the Role We are hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer to get our AI features working for real venues. We've launched agents that help our customers send messages, build menus, and more.

Customize. Customize the AI features to our customers needs so that they can be successful.
Drive adoption. Track and improve customizations so that they drive real outcomes for our customers.
Feed the product. Turn patterns across customers into improvements for the core product. Bring engineering the problems worth solving for everyone. Help write evals to improve performance.
