Forward Deployed Engineering

Custom Solutions.
Platform Expertise.

ShipHero's internal engineering team builds, hosts, and supports custom integrations and automation solutions — for the lifetime of your business.

About the FDE Team

ShipHero's Forward Deployed Engineering team bridges the gap between specific client needs and the main ShipHero application. Through fast innovation and critical design implementations, we deliver solutions that go beyond what's available out of the box — building only what we host and support ourselves.

Platform Experts

As an internal ShipHero team, we have deep knowledge of the platform, codebase, and architecture. No external consultancy can match our level of access and understanding.

End-to-End Ownership

We build it, we host it, we support it — for the lifetime of your system. One team, full accountability, no handoffs to third parties.

Rapid Delivery

Fast prototyping and deployment with the agility of a startup, backed by the stability of ShipHero's enterprise infrastructure.

What We Build

Desktop Integrations

Native desktop applications that connect directly with ShipHero workflows.

PODHero

Print-on-demand solutions integrated seamlessly into the fulfillment pipeline.

Order & Workforce Automation

Automated workflows for order processing, routing, and workforce management.

ERP Integrations

Connect SAP and custom ERPs with real-time data synchronization.

Your Idea, Our Roadmap

Have a concept that doesn't fit the mold? We turn your vision into production-ready software — hosted and supported by our team.

Marketplace & Channel

Custom storefront and marketplace connectors beyond standard integrations.

Custom Workflows

Tailored business logic and automation for unique operational requirements.

Custom Reporting

Purpose-built dashboards and reports that surface the metrics that matter most to your operations.

Agentic Solutions

Bring the power of AI closer to your business — intelligent agents that automate decisions, surface insights, and accelerate your workflows.

ShipHero already offers a wide range of native integrations. The FDE team focuses on custom solutions that aren't available through the standard platform — we don't rebuild what already exists unless there's a compelling reason to do so.
