The Advanced Forward Deployment Engineer works inside a customer's development program as software developer, systems engineer, and deployment lead in one role, and ships production code. This person independently determines and develops the approach to assigned deployment problems, diagnosing issues deep within the protocol stack (Layer 1 to Layer 3), modifying software, validating fixes, and delivering controlled releases during a customer's early development, integration, and regression cycles.

This is a customer-facing software engineering role where you will embed directly within a customer environment to customize, integrate, and deploy technology into real-world production systems.

Core responsibilities

Typically requires a Bachelor's or Master's degree (or equivalent) and 4-5 years of relevant software/systems engineering experience.
