I embed with your team and ship AI into your production stack. Running software, not a slide deck.
A forward deployed engineer (FDE) is a software engineer who embeds directly with a customer's team to make a product or technology work in their real environment. Instead of handing over a spec, an FDE learns the workflow from end users, writes the integrations, and ships to production. For AI, that means taking a model from demo to something your team uses every day.
