Senior Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE)

What You'll Do

• Own customer deployments at offices across the SF Bay Area, Cupertino, and Santa Clara.
• Develop features and integrations specific to customer workflows and port features from our cloud product to on-prem environments inside some of the most locked-down infrastructure on the planet.
• Manage cloud deployments across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OpenShift: standing them up, keeping them healthy, debugging them when they're not.
• Learn about hardware design. Previous experience is not expected, but you should be eager to familiarize yourself with how hardware is developed at a high-level.

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years in backend engineering, full-stack development, or infrastructure/DevOps: internships and teaching assistantships don't count
• Familiarity with agent development and RAG
• Fluency in at least one mainstream backend language (Python, Go, Rust, TypeScript, etc.) and familiarity with either Python or TypeScript
• Comfortable with the Docker ecosystem, cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP), and IaC tools
• Willingness to travel, mostly in California

Bonus Points For

• On-prem deployment experience in enterprise or air-gapped environments
• Prior field engineering, solutions engineering, or customer-facing technical roles
• Experience in EDA, semiconductor, or hardware-adjacent software environments
