A World-Changing Company
Meticulous is accelerating the pace of software development. We’ve built the world’s first fully autonomous and exhaustive testing platform for frontend codebases - a capability that has never existed before and that we believe is key to unlocking the full potential of code generation.
The demand for Meticulous has been strong. Companies like Dropbox, Wiz, and Notion often choose Meticulous as one of the most valuable tools in their engineering stack, and frequently recommend us to others. Our team of twelve has built this by combining deep technical focus with a high bar for quality, drawing experience from companies such as Uber, Google, Dropbox, Git Hub, Meta, and Palantir.

The RoleAs one of the first Forward Deployed Engineers at Meticulous, you’ll help shape how we work with customers and how leading engineering teams adopt our technology.
This role is a mix of software engineering and customer-facing problem solving. You’ll work with engineering teams at companies like Notion, Dropbox, Wealthsimple, Outtake, and Launch Darkly to understand how their systems work and help them successfully deploy Meticulous. Some days you’ll be writing and debugging code; other days you’ll be discussing technical decisions, trade-offs, and best practices with customer engineers.
You won’t be expected to know everything on day one. You’ll be supported by experienced engineers on the team, but you’ll also be given real ownership and responsibility early on.
Core ResponsibilitiesThis role spans both engineering and customer success. You’ll take ownership of customer deployments and do what’s needed to make Meticulous successful for them, including:
Work with customers to deploy Meticulous at scale. Partner with customer engineering teams to understand their architecture, design implementation approaches that fit their systems, and work alongside them to ship reliable solutions.
Improve the product based on real‑world usage. Debug issues that block deployments, investigate problems that reach into core parts of the system, and help ship improvements or features that make the product work better for both the customer you’re focused on and Meticulous overall.
Build strong customer relationships. Communicate regularly with engineers and engineering leaders, help guide rollouts, and collect feedback to ensure customers are successful and supported.
Influence product direction. Use what you learn from working with customers to help inform what we build next. For smaller improvements, you’ll often implement them directly; for larger changes, you’ll work closely with the core engineering team to scope and deliver them.
Help define best practices. As the Forward Deployed Engineering function grows, you’ll contribute to documentation, tooling, and processes that make each new deployment smoother than the last.
Strong technical foundation. A degree in computer science, engineering, or a related technical field, with solid fundamentals in programming and systems.
High ownership and motivation. You’re comfortable taking responsibility, figuring things out, and moving projects forward even when things are ambiguous.
Entrepreneurial spirit. You’ve spent time building things outside of structured coursework such as working on a startup, founding or contributing to an open‑source projects, or shipping personal projects end‑to‑end.
Clear communicator. You can explain technical ideas clearly, ask good questions, and enjoy working directly with other engineers.
Willingness to travel. Around 25% travel to customer sites, primarily in the US.
Learn by building a new function. You’ll be part of shaping an entirely new role at Meticulous, with clear opportunities to grow in responsibility and influence as the team expands.
Exceptional growth and mentorship. We intentionally keep the team small and highly experienced. You’ll work closely with engineers who have led large teams and built complex systems at top technology companies. The environment is fast‑paced, collaborative, and focused on learning quickly from each other.…
