Artheon helps owner-led companies become AI-first. We set up AI for owners and their teams, map how their work really runs, and build agents that take over the repeated work, on software the client owns.
As a forward-deployed engineer you own engagements end to end: from the first working session at the client's desk to agents running in production, with a team that knows how to run them.
What you'd do
- Run working sessions with clients and their teams, on site and remote
- Map how the work actually runs, and decide what's worth automating and what should stay human
- Set up Claude and Codex for owners and their teams (skills, routines, connectors) and teach them on their own work
- Build agents and automations on the client's own systems: ERPs, CRMs, helpdesks, ad platforms and spreadsheets
- Write the integration code: MCP servers, API clients, scripts, webhooks and small internal apps
- Write evals and checks, so every agent's output can be measured
- Debug agents in production and fix forward quickly
- Document what you build, so the client's team can run it and extend it
What we look for
- You've shipped production software and owned it after launch
- You build with coding agents every day (Claude Code, Codex or similar) and know where they fail
- Hands-on with LLM APIs and agent tooling: tool use, MCP, context and retrieval, prompt design, evals
- Solid TypeScript or Python, plus SQL, REST APIs, JSON and webhooks
- You can lead a session with a non-technical team, explain trade-offs plainly and push back on bad scope
- Fluent Czech and good English
What you'll use every day
- Claude + Agent SDK
- Codex
- MCP
- Hermes
- TypeScript
- Python
- Postgres
Nice to have
- Experience with Odoo or another ERP
- You've built and published an MCP server
- You've run a workshop or taught a team
- Background in operations, finance or marketing work
Probably not for you if
- You want to build from a spec, away from the people who use the result
- You need complete requirements before you start
- You'd rather debate what models can't do than make it happen
