*The Enterprise AI Challenge*While the market focuses on Generative AI prototypes, the true challenge for global enterprises lies in production and scale. Generic AI models often fail because they lack context and cannot securely access siloed enterprise data like ERPs, HRIS, or legacy systems.
LumApps AI is a high-velocity initiative focused on solving this "Last Mile Integration" problem. We are the bridge between our core platform and customer value. We don't just license a platform; we deploy top engineering talent to the front lines to ensure AI becomes a secure, deeply integrated, and scalable force multiplier for the modern workforce.
*The Role*As a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE), you are the "tip of the spear" for our most strategic initiative. You will solve hard technical truths on the ground, accelerating the adoption of our core AI technologies: Micro-Apps and Agents.
You will sit at the intersection of engineering and customer impact, navigating technical constraints to deploy live, ROI-generating AI Agents within rapid cycles. This is a rare opportunity to accelerate your career by working with senior leadership and opening doors toward future roles as an architect, tech lead, or product manager.
Candidates must be located in the Greater Toronto Area to be considered. The salary range associated with this position is $160K - $190K CAD.
*Missions*- Strategic Co-Innovation: Embed with customers to map complex data environments and identify high-friction business workflows, such as HR onboarding or IT support.
- Rapid Prototyping & Delivery: Build proof-of-concept AI Agents and integrations using APIs, webhooks, and LLMs that plan, decide, and act within the LumApps ecosystem.
- Enterprise Integration: Architect the middleware and custom connectors required to bridge LumApps with systems like SAP, Workday, or ServiceNow.
- Field Feedback Loop: Act as the trailblazer for our Core R&D team. You will identify systemic integration patterns in the field and contribute code to harden and evolve our core platform, as well as abstract your custom solutions into scalable, repeatable "Industry Vertical Packs."
