Forward Deployed Engineering Lead

You have built solutions directly inside customer environments and carried them to adoption, as a forward deployed engineer, a founding engineer close to customers, or a solutions engineer who ships real code.

Breadth over specialization. You pick up an unfamiliar part of a product quickly, and you can design and defend a solution on the fly in a room full of customer engineers. You are as comfortable in an executive conversation as you are deep in the codebase, in the same afternoon.

You have led a small team while still building, and your team shipped faster because of how you ran it, not just what you coded.

You read what sits behind a customer ask, say no to builds that will not survive, and set expectations without burning the relationship.

You are comfortable being on the road. Embeds run from a few days to a few weeks, sometimes on short notice. Expect roughly 30% of your time at customer sites.

Comfort operating AI-first. Our default is that not using AI for a task is the choice that needs explaining.

First 30 days: You know the product hands-on and use it daily. You have sat with customer success and sales engineering, know every live engagement, and have been in the room with our top accounts. You have shipped your first build.

By 60 days: You have run your first onsite, with the outcome shipped and in use before you leave. You run the team's intake and prioritization day to day, and the US-India rhythm is yours.

By 90 days: The outcomes number is moving and visible: wins counted when customers use and keep using what FDE built. Your first handoff to a product team has gone through a clean sign-off review, and the playbook for going deep with a customer is starting to repeat.

The problem: Be the founding lead of forward deployed engineering. You get the whole platform, the context graph, the taxonomy, the agent stack, behind everything you build in a customer's office.

Growth: Work directly with the founders and engineering leadership at a Series-B company, and shape a function from its first hire.

Benefits: Competitive salary, equity, premium healthcare.
