About This Job

We're looking for an Intermediate Forward Deployed Engineer to rapidly ship working software that solves real operational problems. This is a hands-on, high-autonomy role: you'll spend time with stakeholders to understand a workflow, then go build — wiring together automations, internal tools, AI-driven logic, and APIs into production-grade solutions, often within days rather than quarters.
You will not be handed fully-specified requirements. You'll partner with product, operations, credit, and business teams to diagnose bottlenecks, propose a technical approach, and deliver an iterative solution — then stay close to the problem to refine it as real usage reveals edge cases.

Responsibilities:

  • Sit with business/operations stakeholders to map current-state workflows and identify where automation, tooling, or AI can remove manual effort or risk 

  • Design and build production-grade internal applications and dashboards in Retool for case management, review queues, approvals, and operational visibility 

  • Architect and maintain n8n workflows to orchestrate data movement, notifications, approvals, and system-to-system integrations, including robust error handling and alerting 

  • Integrate LLM/AI components (classification, extraction, summarization, triage) into operational workflows, with attention to accuracy, cost, and failure handling 

  • Design and consume APIs to connect internal tools with core banking, LOS, CRM, and third-party systems 

  • Design and manage Microsoft SQL Server schemas — tables, relationships, keys, indexing strategy — for new and existing internal tools, alongside query and stored-procedure optimization 

  • Design, build, and maintain C# API integration layers (REST services, middleware, authentication, data transformation) connecting Retool/n8n to core systems 

  • Own solutions end-to-end: prototype → pilot with real users → harden → document → hand off or maintain 

  • Rapidly iterate based on direct user feedback rather than working from a fixed spec 

  • Identify when a lightweight (Retool/n8n) solution is sufficient versus when a problem needs custom application code, and make that call 

  • Review code and designs from junior engineers and help enforce engineering standards 

  • Ensure solutions meet the bank's security, data governance, and compliance requirements 

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or equivalent practical experience 

  • 3–5+ years of experience building internal tools/automations with Retool, n8n (or similar: Zapier, Make, Appsmith, OutSystems) 

  • Practical experience integrating LLMs/AI models (e.g., via API — OpenAI, Anthropic, Groq, etc.) into real workflows, not just prototypes 

  • Strong SQL skills and comfort designing schemas in Microsoft SQL Server — normalization, indexing, query optimization 

  • Solid, hands-on experience with C# / .NET, both consuming third-party APIs and designing/building internal ones 

  • Comfortable working directly with non-technical business stakeholders; can translate a vague operational pain point into a technical spec with minimal oversight 

  • Bias toward shipping: comfortable with ambiguity, fast iteration, and being embedded in the business rather than working from a backlog 

  • Basic-to-strong scripting ability (Python or JavaScript/TypeScript) for glue code, custom n8n nodes, or Retool custom components 

Axos Employee Benefits May Include:

  • Medical, Dental, Vision, and Life Insurance

  • Paid Sick Leave, 3 weeks’ Vacation, and Holidays (about 11 a year)

  • HSA or FSA account and other voluntary benefits

  • 401(k) Retirement Saving Plan with Employer Match Program and 529 Savings Plan

  • Employee Mortgage Loan Program and free access to an Axos Bank Account with Self-Directed Trading
