Forward Deployed Engineer

About SANOVIO SANOVIO makes buying and selling medical supplies easier. On our AI platform, hospitals, purchasing groups and suppliers work together in one place instead of juggling emails, Excel lists and disconnected systems. Hospitals can buy together, and suppliers reach that bundled demand more easily. Our software, SANOVIO aOS, uses AI agents to take over the tedious work: cleaning up product data, comparing requests and offers, bundling demand and keeping orders on track. It connects to the systems our customers already use. When needed, SANOVIO Fulfillment also takes care of the physical side: finding manufacturers worldwide, quality checks, financing, warehousing and delivery. The goal is simple: less admin work, and more time and money for patient care. About the Role As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you are the bridge between our customers and our product, on both sides of the platform: healthcare providers and purchasing groups on one side, suppliers on the other. At its core, this role is about talking to customers. You work directly with procurement, logistics and IT teams, understand how they really work and make SANOVIO work inside their world: you connect our platform to their ERP, materials management and supplier systems, untangle their data and processes, and ship the solutions that make them successful. This role is for builders who are just as comfortable in a customer workshop as in a code editor. Whether you studied business informatics, industrial engineering, computer science or mathematics, or bring experience in technical product management, product engineering or software engineering with a strong design sense: what matters is that you love solving messy real-world problems end to end. We hire for skills, not for degrees.
