Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE)

PCT partners with venture-backed technology companies looking for Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs) who can bridge the gap between sophisticated technology and real-world customer problems.

These roles are ideal for engineers who enjoy working directly with customers, navigating ambiguous technical challenges, and building solutions that make technology useful in complex production environments. Depending on the company, Forward Deployed Engineers may work alongside customers from initial implementation through deployment, integration, and ongoing product development.

While requirements vary across our client companies, strong candidates often bring:

• A strong software engineering foundation and experience building production systems.
• The ability to quickly understand unfamiliar systems, codebases, and technical environments.
