About Ramp
At Ramp, we’re rebuilding how modern finance teams function in the age of AI. We believe AI isn’t just the next big wave. It’s the new foundation for how business gets done. We’re investing in that future — and in the people bold enough to build it.
Ramp is a financial operations platform designed to save companies time and money. Our all-in-one solution combines payments, corporate cards, vendor management, procurement, travel booking, and automated bookkeeping with built-in intelligence to maximize the impact of every dollar and hour spent. But we’re not just building features powered by AI. We’re building a platform where it’s agents who chase receipts, close books, flag risks, and surface insights. That way, teams can reclaim their time and reinvest in what actually matters.
More than 40,000 businesses, from family-owned farms to e-commerce giants to space startups, have saved $10B and 27.5M hours with Ramp. Founded in 2019, Ramp powers the fastest-growing corporate card and bill payment platform in America, and enables over $80 billion in purchases each year.
Ramp’s investors include Thrive Capital, Sands Capital, General Catalyst, Founders Fund, Khosla Ventures, Sequoia Capital, Greylock, and Redpoint, as well as over 100 angel investors who were founders or executives of leading companies.
Ramp has been named to Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies list and LinkedIn’s Top U.S. Startups for more than 3 years, as well as the Forbes Cloud 100, CNBC Disruptor 50, and TIME Magazine’s 100 Most Influential Companies.
About the Role
Being a part of Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE), you will design and build solutions to support our largest customers and scale our enterprise motion. FDE is a high-pace, customer-facing, business-focused engineering team, and we pave the way for Ramp to support the largest and most complex organizations in the world.
On FDE, you will interact directly with customers and deliver solutions end to end — from understanding pain points and shaping product decisions to designing and implementing scalable systems. We are a full stack team and collaborate closely with sales and core product engineering.

What You’ll Do
Deliver solutions end to end that meet the needs of our largest, strategic customers — understanding user pain points, scoping product specs, and designing and building software.
Collaborate closely with our sales and go-to-market teams to close exciting deals, activate customers, and expand the value Ramp provides over time. We work with and support huge, world-class companies at the scale of $100B+ in valuation.
Drive our core product engineering roadmap and make important prioritization and scoping decisions that determine when we build custom solutions vs. accelerate larger existing projects. Our team uses an embedding model where FDEs embed within core product engineering teams to develop expertise in the most relevant technical areas.
Solve technical challenges to support new levels of scale, and help us develop and execute our strategy to grow our enterprise platform. For example, extending our data model for roles and permissions, seamlessly integrating with 3rd party systems with generalized data exports, and ingesting HRIS data at scale.
