About You
As a Forward Deployed Engineer at Optiml, you will sit at the intersection of product, engineering, and our most strategic customers. You’ll work directly with large real estate owners and consultancies, embedding into their workflows to ensure our software becomes a core part of how they operate—not just a tool they deploy.
Your mission is to drive successful, high-impact implementations: deeply understand customer processes, redesign workflows around our platform, and translate complex, messy requirements into scalable technical and product solutions. You’ll own the end-to-end lifecycle of complex deployments, from early scoping and prototyping through to adoption and long-term success.
This role combines hands-on technical execution with strong customer and stakeholder leadership. You will act as a trusted partner to senior client teams while working closely with Optiml’s Product, Engineering, and Sales functions to generalize insights into our broader product roadmap.
We’re looking for a high-agency engineer with experience operating in ambiguous, high-friction enterprise environments. This is not a support or delivery role. If you thrive at the intersection of technology, customer impact, and ownership—and enjoy doing whatever it takes to make software truly stick—this is an opportunity to shape how Optiml scales with its most important customers.
About Optiml
Optiml is revolutionizing real estate with our Real Estate Decision Intelligence (REDI) software—a new class of decision technology that embeds AI to help decarbonize buildings while optimizing asset financial performance.
We are an ETH Zurich spin-off that launched its first product in April 2024 and has since been scaling across Europe and the United States, earning major industry recognition, including the 2024 ULI Europe PropTech of the Year and 2024 ZIA PropTech of the Year awards.
We are backed by top-tier US and European investors, including Innovation Endeavors (the fund of former Google CEO Eric Schmidt), Planet A, BitStone, and Kompas, who support our mission to empower real estate investors, asset managers, and consulting partners to deliver a cost-effective, value-preserving transition to Net Zero.
As of early 2026, we are expanding our team to broaden our product lines and scale operational delivery for a growing global client base.
