Forward Deployed Engineer
Remote, Hybrid
Solutions Engineering
Full-time
We’re looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) to join our team and help bridge the gap between product and customer. As an FDE, you’ll work directly with our customers to understand their technical needs, build custom solutions, and ensure they get the most out of our platform. You’ll be deeply technical, but also comfortable collaborating cross-functionally — with product, customer success, and engineering teams.
This is not a typical support or integration role — it’s about building real solutions, solving hard problems in the field, and helping shape how our product evolves based on frontline feedback.
Responsibilities
- Deploy, extend, and customize our platform to meet customer-specific requirements
- Build scalable integrations, automation, and tooling based on customer workflows
- Collaborate with customers to deeply understand their infrastructure, architecture, and goals
- Work closely with internal product and engineering teams to translate field learnings into product improvements
- Act as the technical lead during implementations or critical projects
- Deliver POCs, custom prototypes, and integrations as needed
- Occasionally travel to customer sites for deployment, integration, or discovery workshops (if applicable)
Requirements
- 3+ years experience in software engineering, solutions engineering, or a similar technical role
- Proficiency in one or more programming languages (e.g., Python, Go, TypeScript, Java)
- Strong understanding of modern infrastructure (cloud services, APIs, CI/CD, containers)
- Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills in production environments
- Comfortable working directly with customers and cross-functional teams
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
Bonus (but not required)
- Prior experience in a customer-facing technical role (e.g., solutions engineer, sales engineer, dev advocate)
- Familiarity with [insert relevant domain: e.g., data pipelines, machine learning, enterprise IT, etc.]
- Experience in fast-paced startup or scale-up environments
- Willingness to travel occasionally
Why This Role
If you thrive on solving real-world problems, working closely with customers, and deploying technology in production environments — this role will put you at the center of it all. You’ll have the autonomy to build, the opportunity to impact how we evolve, and the support of a high-caliber team behind you.
