TL;DR – We’re looking for an exceptional Forward Deployed Engineer to help build the future of AI-powered software creation. You will be a founding member of our FDE function, working directly with our most ambitious customers to translate impossible ideas into real products. This is a unique opportunity to design a new discipline from scratch and solve problems with AI that no one has solved before.
Why Lovable?
Lovable lets anyone and everyone build software with any language. From solopreneurs to Fortune 100 teams, millions of people use Lovable to transform raw ideas into real products - fast. We are at the forefront of a foundational shift in software creation, which means you have an unprecedented opportunity to change the way the digital world works. Lovable-built applications and websites are visited hundreds of millions of times a month, and our enterprise footprint is compounding fast. And we’re just getting started.
We’re a small, talent-dense team building a generation-defining company from Stockholm, London, Boston & San Francisco. We value extreme ownership, high velocity, and low-ego collaboration. We seek out people who care deeply, ship fast, and are eager to make a dent in the world.
What makes this role special?
This isn’t a traditional software engineering role.
You will:
- Be one of the first Forward Deployed Engineers at Lovable
- Create a new function at the intersection of engineering, product, customer success, and research
- Partner with customers building never-seen-before AI systems
- Build product features based on real-world behaviors and emerging patterns
- Influence our core product direction and technical roadmap
If you want to invent new categories, not just improve existing ones - this is that role.
What we’re looking for
- 5+ years of experience building and shipping full-stack products
- Proficiency in modern frontend (React/TypeScript) and robust backend development
- Strong architectural thinking and familiarity with distributed systems
- Ability to rapidly prototype, experiment, and learn from real usage
- Exceptional product intuition and ability to work directly with users
- Comfort operating in high-ambiguity, high-agency environments
Bonus if you’ve:
- Worked on agentic AI systems or built with LLMs before
- Led zero-to-one product development
- Worked in a founding or early startup environment
What you’ll do
In one sentence: Deploy intelligence into the real world.
- Work directly with customers to understand their workflows, needs, and problems
- Design and implement solutions for our customers that integrate with Lovable
- Translate insights from real usage into foundational platform improvements
- Own projects end-to-end — from idea → architecture → shipping → iteration
- Shape how Forward Deployed Engineering works at Lovable (rituals, playbooks, org design)
- Contribute to core product strategy, technical decisions, and cultural foundations

- Frontend: React, Typescript
