The Role

You'll be the first Forward Deployed Engineer at Bonx for the Italian market.

Fast-track opportunity. High growth. High impact.

Be at the forefront of bringing AI into our customers' operations.

Work alongside the Deployment Strategist to transform complex customer needs into AI-powered workflows, automations, and custom solutions that deliver immediate business impact.

Own the technical side of deployments, from scoping and prototyping to production rollout, with your clients.

Design and maintain scalable automations and internal tools using technologies such as n8n, LangChain, and emerging AI frameworks.

Bridge customer needs, operations, and engineering, ensuring custom solutions are both impactful and scalable.

Troubleshoot complex technical challenges across multiple deployments and continuously push the boundaries of what AI can automate.

The role is not

This is not a Software Engineer role.

You're not expected to build and maintain Bonx's core product.

You're closer to a Technical Deployment Engineer, Solutions Engineer, or AI Automation Engineer: someone who uses technology to solve customer problems, automate processes, build workflows, and successfully deploy Bonx in client environments.

The focus is on implementation, automation, problem-solving, and execution rather than traditional software development.

You

Native Italian, professional English - non-negotiable.

2–7 years managing complex IT projects or hands-on consulting with a strong on-site delivery track record.

Engineering degree or strong technical background.

Strong desire to experience the raw intensity of an early-stage startup.

Comfortable working with generative AI and AI-powered workflows.

Rapidly prototypes solutions, tests ideas, and iterates based on feedback.

Builder mindset: resourceful, hands-on, and focused on execution.

Thinks in terms of systems, processes, and scalability rather than one-off fixes.

Driven and ambitious!
