Verification. Evidence.\nRole Overview\nPackageX is looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer - Mobile to work directly with customers, prospects, sales, product, engineering, AI, and implementation teams to understand complex physical operations, design PackageX workflows, and implement solutions that work in real-world environments.\nThis role is focused on enterprise workflow design, solution configuration, customer operations, technical implementation, and go-live success. From pre-sales solution design through pilot, implementation, testing, rollout, and go-live, you’ll serve as a technical point of contact, translating customer requirements into validated, production-ready solutions.\nWorking across manufacturing sites, distribution centers, warehouses, retail locations, and other logistics-heavy environments, you’ll map workflows, configure the PackageX platform, support pilots, troubleshoot issues, and help customers go live successfully.\nThis is a customer-facing, technical, and hands-on role. The right person can configure workflows in the platform and partner with Product and Engineering to close technical gaps. This is more than a pre-sales or solution design role. You’ll write code, configure workflows, provision devices, debug on the floor, and get customers live.\nHow This Role Works\nThis is one role with two modes, and you’ll move between them constantly, often inside the same week.\nSolution mode. You are in front of the customer: running discovery, mapping current-state and future-state operations, designing the workflow, configuring it in the PackageX platform, and driving the pilot through to go-live.\nBuild mode. You are in the PackageX React Native codebase, shipping the mobile features that configuration alone cannot express, then putting them in front of that same customer and iterating.\nBoth halves are required. Shipping production React Native code is a gate for this role, not a bonus, and so is direct customer-facing work. If you have deep enterprise implementation experience but have not shipped mobile code, or you are a strong mobile engineer with no appetite for standing on a warehouse floor with a customer, this is not the right role.\nWhat You’ll Own\nCode contributions to the PackageX React Native application where customer needs exceed what configuration can deliver.\nCustomer workflow discovery and process mapping.\nPre-sales solution design and technical workflow support.\nCurrent-state and future-state workflow design.\nPackageX workflow configuration and hands-on implementation.\nPilot setup, testing, validation, and rollout support.\nCustomer technical ownership through solution design, implementation, and go-live.\nTranslation of customer requirements into working platform solutions.\nWorkflow documentation, configuration logic, QA, and implementation readiness.\nInternal solution handoffs to product, engineering, AI, and implementation teams.\nIdentification of reusable workflow patterns.\nSupport for strategic demos, pilots, readouts, and enterprise rollouts.\nWhat You’ll Do\nJoin customer and prospect conversations during pre-sales to understand real operational workflows.\nConnect with customersfor discovery, workflow mapping, operational walkthroughs, pilot support, readouts, and go-live activities.\nMap current-state and future-state processes.\nTranslate customer workflows into PackageX platform configurations.\nConfigure workflows, rules, forms, logic, automations, and solution components.\nBuild the parts that don’t exist yet:mobile features, workflow logic, integration glue.\nSupport discovery, solution design, demos, pilots, and technical validation.\nHelp implement pilots and customer rollouts from design through go-live.\nServe as a technical point of contact for customers during solution design, implementation, testing, and go-live.\nTest workflows and troubleshoot configuration, workflow, data, integration, and operational issues.\nPartner with Product, Engineering, AI, and Implementation teams to improve execution and identify reusable platform patterns.\nDocument workflow requirements, assumptions, dependencies, configuration logic, and implementation decisions.\nIdentify opportunities to configure, automate, productize, escalate, or manually solve customer needs.\nSupport strategic accounts requiring deeper workflow design and hands-on solution building.\nHelp build repeatable workflow playbooks by industry and use case.\nWhat Success Looks Like\nWithin the first 90 days:\nStrategic customer workflows are documented clearly before implementation.\nCustomer workflows are configured, tested, and ready for deployment within the PackageX platform.\nPilots and rollouts move faster because workflow design and implementation gaps are identified early.\nTime-to-go-live is tracked and improved for assigned implementations.\nCustomers have a clear technical point of contact from solution design through go-live.\nAt least one customer-blocking gap has been closed by you in code rather than escalated to the core team.\nSales, Implementation, Product, and Engineering teams have cleaner handoffs and better-defined workflow requirements.\nReusable workflow patterns are identified across customers to improve future implementations.\nStrategic discovery, demos, pilots, readouts, and rollouts are better supported.\nCustomer workflow knowledge becomes more structured, repeatable, and actionable.\nIdeal Background\nSolution and implementation\n5+ years in solutions architecture, enterprise implementation, workflow design, technical consulting, field deployment, or hands-on solution engineering.\nExperience working directly with enterprise customers, not only through a PM or account team.\nExperience configuring or implementing enterprise software platforms from solution design through go-live.\nStrong understanding of operational workflows, systems, data flows, and implementation dependencies.\nComfortable with APIs, integrations, enterprise systems, configuration logic, workflow automation, and technical documentation.\nMobile engineering\nHands-on React Native development experience: able to read an unfamiliar codebase, ship a feature, and open a reviewable PR without handholding. Native iOS or Android depth is a plus.\nExperience with device camera work: barcode scanning, OCR, or on-device ML.\nHow you work\nStrong communication skills with both business and technical stakeholders.\nComfortable working on customer sites and creating structure in fast-moving, ambiguous environments.\nStrong curiosity about logistics, supply chain, manufacturing, warehousing, retail, and physical operations.","description_format":"text","description_chars":7099,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Supply Chain & Logistics Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-14T08:13:33Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-15T03:37:49Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/packagex-forward-deployed-engineer-mobile","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/packagex-forward-deployed-engineer-mobile.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-15T03:37:49Z","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_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":5050,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-16T00:00:00Z"}},"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":180056},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=180056"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fpackagex-forward-deployed-engineer-mobile"},{"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%2Fpackagex-forward-deployed-engineer-mobile"},{"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%2Fpackagex-forward-deployed-engineer-mobile"},{"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/packagex-forward-deployed-engineer-mobile\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fpackagex-forward-deployed-engineer-mobile"}]}
