Forward Deployed Engineer
Ultimate Knowledge
Forward Deployed Engineer
We're looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer who is, first and foremost, a software engineer; someone who writes code, reasons about systems, and understands how distributed applications behave in real-world environments. But you're also the kind of person who enjoys rolling up your sleeves and helping customers succeed directly: embedding with their teams, understanding their constraints, and making complex cloud-native systems actually work in the places they need to run.
You'll work across cloud and on-prem environments; including secure and classified networks; deploying, adapting, and occasionally adapting our platform to environments that don't always behave as expected. This is not a traditional DevOps or IT role. You will ship code, build tooling, write automation, debug real distributed-systems failures, and help customers adopt best practices in GitOps, networking, and infrastructure-as-code. Kubernetes is a must have.
We value engineers who are curious, adaptable, empathetic, and calm under ambiguity. You're the kind of person who can pick up a new tool in a day, learn a customer's entire system architecture in a week, and become their most trusted technical partner in a month. You have strong opinions (and the experience to back them up) but no ego. You prefer shipping things over polishing them endlessly. And you enjoy the blend of deep technical work, human collaboration, and the occasional "how on earth is this network even working?" puzzle.
