The Principal Forward Deployed Engineer joins the AI-Native Invoicing team to bridge the gap between complex user workflows and scalable product features. You will build direct relationships with high-profile QuickBooks Influencers, embedding in their real-world invoicing environments to shadow how they and their small-to-medium business clients get paid. Your daily responsibilities include designing and hand-building custom AI-native invoicing solutions, including power-user agents, automations, and RAG workflows, while iterating quickly based on field feedback. You must identify patterns in these bespoke builds to partner with leadership on roadmap-ready capabilities. The role requires 10+ years of software engineering experience, proficiency with modern AI/LLM application patterns, and the ability to translate technical concepts for accounting professionals. You will travel regularly to work on-site with users.
