Source and classification

Production engineering · Evidence for this classification:

customer partnership. You'll own the most complex integration designs and AI-powered workflow implementations end-to-end: decomposing enterprise supply chain problems into architecture, building the solution, and ensuring it scales. This is not a coordination role. You will write code, build data pipelines, design microservices architectures, and ship production integrations alongside the team. When a customer needs a real-time event-driven integration with their SAP landscape, or an agentic workflow that autonomously resolves shipment exceptions, you're the person who designs it, proves it out, and ensures it delivers business value. You'll carry strategic customer relationships across the full account lifecycle (pre-sales through production), feed field intelligence back into Product and R&D, and build external thought leadership that establishes FourKites as the technical standard
