Prototype in days
We put a working tool in your hands before the first week is out.
Build & integration
We build the custom software and wire it into the tools you already run.
Embedded AI
We embed AI assistants and automation where they actually save time, not for the demo.
Production deployment
We don't stop at the prototype: we ship to production and keep it standing under real load.
Handover & run
We hand control back to your team, with the docs and autonomy to run it without us.

About
The engineer you embed in your team
TPMGE brings the forward deployed engineer (FDE) model to SMEs and scale-ups: an embedded engineer who settles in with you and ships the software you're missing.
Traditional consultancies sell you specs and leave. We do the opposite: we embed in your team, we live your constraints on the ground, and we build from the real problem, not a theoretical brief.
Based in Paris, we work remote and on-site. Within days you have a prototype in hand. Within weeks the tool is in production and your teams use it every day.
Our field: custom software, internal tools, client portals, ERP and CRM, e-commerce, dashboards and AI integration. Projects already delivered and in use, from bespoke tailoring to B2B logistics.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Everything worth knowing about the forward deployed engineer model.
What is a forward deployed engineer?
A forward deployed engineer (FDE) embeds directly inside your team to understand the real problem on the ground, then builds and ships the software that solves it. Instead of writing specs from a distance, we work alongside your people and deliver a working prototype in days. It's the model used by Palantir, OpenAI and Anthropic, offered here as a service for SMEs and scale-ups.
How does an engagement work?
We start with a short immersion to map your workflow, data and constraints. Within days you get a working prototype, then we iterate with you until it's in production. Everything ends with a clean handover, so your team keeps full ownership.
Do you work remotely or on-site?
Both. We're based in Paris and work on-site when being on the ground matters, and remotely the rest of the time. The mix is set with you, depending on the project and where the real problem lives.
How fast can you deliver?
A usable prototype usually lands in a few days, and most projects reach production in a matter of weeks. That speed comes from embedding early and building the real thing instead of endless documents. Larger platforms take longer, but you see working software fast.
Which technologies do you use?
Our core stack is TypeScript, React, Next.js and Tailwind on the front end, with Node.js, PostgreSQL and Drizzle ORM on the back end. We deploy with Docker and CI/CD. We pick proven tools over hype, so what we ship stays maintainable.
Do you do AI integration?
Yes. We integrate Claude and other large language models into your products and workflows, from custom assistants and RAG search to automation with tools like n8n and Zapier. The goal is always a concrete gain, not AI for its own sake.
Do you maintain what you build, and how is pricing set?
You own the code, and we can keep maintaining and evolving it or hand it fully to your team. Engagements are usually scoped by mission or on a recurring basis, depending on your needs. We agree on scope and budget upfront, before any code is written.
Got a problem that deserves its own software?
Let's talk. We'll learn your ground and tell you within days what we can ship.
