First Resonance builds the ION Factory OS - the operating system their factories run on.\nAlmost no factory runs on ION alone. Parts live in a PLM system, purchase orders in an ERP, costs in finance, and a surprising amount of critical process in spreadsheets and homegrown tools. Integrations are the difference between ION being the system of record for how something gets built and ION being one more tab. Right now that work is the single biggest lever on how fast a customer gets real value from us - and it needs an owner.\nYou will own it end to end: discovery, architecture, implementation, go-live, and keeping it running. Sometimes you will write the code. Sometimes you will direct an internal engineer or an external systems integration partner. Either way the outcome is yours. Over time you will turn what you learn into reusable connectors, reference architectures, and platform improvements, so the tenth integration costs a fraction of the first.\nYou will work day to day with Forward Deployed Engineering, Customer Success, Sales, Product, and Engineering, and directly with customer engineering and IT teams.\nWhat you’ll own\nCustomer integrations, end to end: Discovery and requirements through architecture, estimation, build, test, go-live, documentation, and handoff.\n\nThe translation layer: Turn how a customer actually manages parts, BOMs, purchase orders, receipts, inventory, work orders, quality, and engineering changes into a design that holds up in production.\n\nBuild-versus-partner calls: Decide when we implement directly, reuse an existing connector, enable the customer’s team, or bring in a systems integration partner - then scope the work, set acceptance criteria, review the quality, and hold delivery to it.\n\nProduction reliability: Monitoring, alerting, retries, reconciliation, auditability, and incident response for integrations customers depend on every shift.\n\nReusable leverage: Convert one-off implementations into connectors, reference architectures, test harnesses, runbooks, and documentation.\n\nPlatform feedback: Find the recurring gaps in ION’s APIs, eventing, and data model, and work with Product and Engineering to close them for good.\n\nWhat we’re looking for\n6+ years in customer-facing or delivery-oriented engineering - solutions architecture, integration engineering, forward deployed engineering, or technical consulting - where you shipped production code yourself.\n\nYou have taken at least one complex enterprise integration from a vague first conversation all the way to running reliably in production.\n\nReal depth in API-based integration: REST or GraphQL, webhooks, auth protocols, async processing, and data transformation - plus the distributed-systems instincts that go with it, including idempotency, ordering, retries, reconciliation, and observability.\n\nYou are comfortable sitting with a customer’s manufacturing or IT team, hearing an ambiguous process description, and leaving with a scoped technical plan.\n\nYou write and speak clearly enough to explain an architecture, a tradeoff, and a risk to both a staff engineer and a VP of Operations.\n\nNice to have\nManufacturing systems experience - ERP, PLM, MES, procurement, finance, or warehouse platforms. Names we run into often: NetSuite, SAP, Dynamics 365, Teamcenter, Arena, Duro, SolidWorks PDM.\n\nIntegration platforms or middleware such as Prismatic, Boomi, MuleSoft, Workato, or Informatica.\n\nConnectors, SDKs, or developer documentation you built that other people actually used.\n\nComfort with enterprise security and deployment constraints: SSO/OAuth, audit requirements, regulated or on-premise environments, restricted networks.\n\nBackground in aerospace, defense, or advanced manufacturing.\n\nBenefits & Perks\nHealth Insurance; medical, vision, dental, & life insurance.\n\nPaid Parental Leave.\n\nEmployee Stock Option Plan.\n\nTeam outings, group lunches, open office, happy hours.\n\nPaid holidays, sick days.\n\nFlexible Friday and PTO.\n\n401K.\n\nFirst Resonance is an equal opportunity employer dedicated to building an inclusive and diverse workforce.\nFirst Resonance participates in E-Verify. As part of our onboarding process, a new hire's Form I-9 information will be shared with the federal government to confirm they are authorized to work in the U.S.\nPay is based on factors such as (but not limited to) scope and responsibilities of the position, candidate's work experience and skillset, and location.\nFirst Resonance accelerates the speed and reliability of hardware development for companies manufacturing the next generation of hardware products. This includes space exploration, electric airplanes, autonomous vehicles, nuclear reactors, robotics, and more. We are a group of software, hardware, and manufacturing engineers that are bringing the best of modern UX and data science to an industry that has been overly rigid in its innovation. We are removing the barriers preventing radical advancement by providing tools to manufacturing engineers and operators to move information more freely, collaborate with their teams more easily, and use the power of data to predict problems and provide insights that result in better hardware quality and delivery.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5317,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["401k plan","Health insurance","Life insurance","Parental leave"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Artificial Intelligence","Web Design","UI/UX Design"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-02T16:09:16Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":3,"expected_fill_days":143,"reasons":["conf:1","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-05T05:45:15Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":190000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/first-resonance-forward-deployed-engineer-integrations","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/first-resonance-forward-deployed-engineer-integrations.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-06T02:50:09Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":4250,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":750,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-07T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":673414},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=673414"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Ffirst-resonance-forward-deployed-engineer-integrations"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Ffirst-resonance-forward-deployed-engineer-integrations"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Ffirst-resonance-forward-deployed-engineer-integrations"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/first-resonance-forward-deployed-engineer-integrations\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Ffirst-resonance-forward-deployed-engineer-integrations"}]}
