About Elements Elements is building a foundational platform to automate and connect high-stakes finance workflows. We are in advanced beta, live with early customers, and preparing for a full production launch. The product is already operating in demanding, real-world environments. This is a rare moment to join early with real traction and low execution risk. We are well funded, actively used by multiple customers, and seeing strong inbound demand as we prepare to scale.

The Opportunity We are hiring a Senior Forward-Deployed Engineer as a foundational team member. This fully remote role sits at the technical-forward intersection of engineering and customer delivery: you will spend your time building production-grade integrations and custom workflows that embed Elements into our customers core systems. You will work directly with the founders and enterprise clients to ensure our platform delivers immediate, high-stakes value in the field.

What You'll Do

Partner directly with enterprise finance teams to translate complex operational challenges into working technical solutions.
Design and ship production-quality connectors between Elements and customer systems using Java (Spring Boot) and React.
Act as the voice of the customer for the engineering team, turning field insights into core product features.
Build scalable, observable workflows that prioritize security, performance, and long-term stability.
Collaborate closely with founders and core engineers in a high-autonomy environment.
Establish delivery best practices and integration playbooks as the team grows.

Who We're Looking For

Strong engineering foundation with a track record of building and scaling production systems.
Strong functional background in finance or accounting - ideally a CPA or a Bachelor's in Finance - to bridge the gap between technical code and complex financial workflows.
Ability to navigate complex enterprise environments and turn ambiguous requirements into technical architecture.
Deep understanding of application architecture, system design, and API patterns.
Ownership mindset with experience in zero-to-one or customer-facing engineering environments.
Technical judgment to balance shipping high-impact solutions with maintaining engineering standards.
Experience with Java, Spring Boot, React, or similar technologies.

Why Join Elements

Real ownership in a category-defining product.
Meaningful equity as a founding team member.
Direct impact on how critical finance systems operate.
A small, experienced team focused on building the right way.
