About the role

We’re seeking a Forward Deployed Software Engineer (FDE) that operates at the intersection of product engineering, sales engineering, and technical consulting. As a builder, translator, and change agent , you will embed directly with strategic enterprise and government partners to solve their most complex operational bottlenecks. We are not a traditional consulting firm; we are builders who believe that the best way to advise a customer is to show them working software.

What you'll bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
  • Strong cloud experience (GCP, AWS, Azure)
  • Strong full-stack proficiency, particularly in Python, TypeScript, Go, Rust, or Java
  • Demonstrated experience building and shipping production-quality code in ambiguous, fast-paced environments
  • Experience deploying Agentic workflows (e.g., ADK, Agents SDK) and agent orchestration
  • Experience building evaluation frameworks for AI workflows and systems
  • Familiarity and efficient use of AI-enabled tools (e.g., Gemini Code Assist, Claude Code, or Codex)
  • Deep customer empathy, low ego, and exceptional communication skills to bridge the gap between complex engineering systems and business leaders
  • Experience with containerized environments (Kubernetes/GKE)
  • Active Google Cloud certifications, or willingness to obtain within one month of joining
  • Obsession for impact in highly ambiguous environments and favors rapid action over perfect clarity
  • US Citizen
