Built for Forward Deployed Engineers

Deploy AI Jobs is the only job board exclusively focused on Forward Deployed Engineer, Field Engineer, Implementation Engineer, and Solutions Engineer roles — the jobs that put technical people directly in front of customers.

What is a Forward Deployed Engineer?

A Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) is a software engineer who works directly at or with customer sites to implement, customize, and extend software products. Unlike traditional engineers who build in isolation, FDEs bridge the gap between product and customer — solving real-world problems in real environments.

The term was popularized by Palantir, where FDEs embedded within government agencies and Fortune 500 companies. Today, companies across AI, data infrastructure, cloud platforms, and enterprise SaaS have adopted the FDE model in various forms.

Our Mission

We believe the FDE role is one of the most impactful in tech — and one of the hardest to find through generic job boards. LinkedIn and Indeed are full of noise. Deploy AI Jobs exists to cut through it.

Every job on Deploy AI Jobs is reviewed and categorized for relevance. We focus on roles that require hands-on technical depth and direct customer interaction — not just sales engineering or traditional customer success.

For Companies

Hiring FDEs is hard because the candidate pool is unique — you need engineers who also want to travel, communicate with executives, and solve ambiguous problems under pressure. Our audience is exactly that person.
