Forward Deployed Engineer, Hardware

Forward Deployed Engineer Hardware Track Revel · Los Angeles, San Francisco, London (Travel 30–50%) About Revel At Revel, we are revolutionizing the way the world’s most critical hardware is controlled—across aerospace, automotive, energy, and manufacturing sectors. Our next-generation software stack combines an intuitive command/control interface, a specialized programming language tailored for hardware control, and a high-performance runtime environment. We empower engineers to build, test, and deploy critical systems rapidly, reliably, and safely. The Role Forward Deployed Engineers are Revel’s most embedded technical presence with customers. You’ll be the person who makes Revel real—showing up at customer sites, getting our software running on their hardware, writing code alongside their teams, and building the kind of deep technical partnerships that make customers successful long-term. You’ll work directly on the hardware that powers critical missions across aerospace, automotive, energy, and manufacturing—driving significant impact for the industries that depend on Revel. What you learn in the field comes back to directly shape our product roadmap. This is not a support role. It’s a highly technical, high-ownership position at the intersection of software engineering and business strategy.
