TailorEmpower every company to deploy any ideas. We simplify the difficult parts of product creation through engineering. We aim for a world where anyone can become a product creator by breaking down the boundaries between business and engineering. We are waiting for those who resonate with this mission. What Tailor Offers We deliver value to solve business challenges for companies by democratizing ERP using AI, focusing on two pillars. One is the development of the AI Native Headless ERP platform "Tailor Platform™". We aim to redefine ERP, which supports the backbone of businesses worldwide, into a flexible and scalable system that assumes the AI era in both construction methods and end-user usage, maximizing corporate value. We are redesigning business logic based on AI Agents to create core systems that can be handled by both humans and AI — this is the theme we are challenging in this era. The other is Professional Services.

We not only build backends on the Tailor Platform but also engage in frontend development, business consulting, IT strategy, and PMO support, directly addressing customers' management challenges. These two are not independent. Insights gained from the field of Professional Services flow back into the Tailor Platform, and the evolution of the Tailor Platform accelerates the problem-solving of Professional Services — creating this cycle is at the core of our development style. The Market Tailor Challenges The ERP market accounts for about 30% of the entire software market.

The domestic market is also expected to grow from over 5 trillion yen in 2024 to over 8.5 trillion yen by 2029. However, more important than market size is the fact that there are still a large number of unresolved business challenges in this area. As the global trend shifts from "all-in-one packages" to "best-of-breed combinations of SaaS," questions arise daily in companies about how to structure complex business processes, how much to automate, and how to incorporate AI.

Position Role As a member of Professional Services, you will be responsible for identifying customer challenges from the pre-sales stage to implementing solutions. Alternatively, you will co-create product development with customers to maximize the success rate of existing projects.

Depending on the project and organizational situation, you will work on solving challenges in various areas. Specific Job Responsibilities Utilizing your experience in the financial accounting domain, you will think and choose the expected roles yourself.

Attraction of This Position - You can stand at the center of the judgment of "what to solve and why" — As the speed of implementation increases due to AI, the value of judgment regarding "what to create" and "why to solve it" becomes relatively higher. FDE stands at the center of that judgment. - You can not only use the platform but also be part of its growth — You can return insights gained in the field to improve the Tailor Platform. Your solutions will become the foundation for the next project. - You can directly commit to customer value through collaboration with diverse teams — You will stand at the forefront of problem-solving while co-creating with various teams such as PdM, Consultant, and Sales. - AI / LLM native development environment — We have already introduced major AI / LLM services and agents.
