How it works
Post a job, read applications and hire in one place.
Career context
Engineers who make AI work inside real companies
Forward deployed engineers (FDEs) sit with customers and turn an AI platform into working solutions: integrating data and systems, building agents and workflows, debugging in production and feeding what they learn back to the product team. The role was popularised by Palantir and AI labs and AI startups now hire for it.
It suits engineers who like both code and people: you scope problems with customers, build quickly, and own the outcome. The roles below come from AI companies' own career pages.
New to the role? Our guide Forward deployed engineer: role, pay and skills reads 84 real job ads from 29 AI companies: what they ask for, the pay they post and how much travel to expect.
Why RemoteAI

Not general job boards.
Some roles are posted here by the company, others link to the company's own job page. Closed roles are marked as closed, and there are no recruiter markups.
AI-only job listings
Roles are filtered to AI work. Each listing shows the company and links to its own job page.
Direct access to hiring teams
No recruiter in the middle. Your application goes to the company making the decision, here or on its own job page. No markups.
Free for candidates
Your profile, browsing and up to 20 applications a day are free. No placement fee, no share of your salary, no exclusive contract.
Pay shown when known
Jobs posted on RemoteAI show a pay range. Listings from company career pages show it when the company publishes one.
Remote roles
Remote and remote-friendly roles. Some require timezone overlap or a country, and the listing says where you can work from.
Full application tracking
Track all your applications, messages, and interviews in one place. No more losing track of where you applied.

Prototypes in days: backend, a simple UI, data plumbing.

Debugging in production
Calm, methodical work when a customer system breaks.

FAQ
Questions about forward deployed engineer jobs
Everything you need to know before applying for your first forward deployed engineer role.
A forward deployed engineer is a software engineer who works directly with customers to deploy and adapt a company's platform (today usually an AI platform), building integrations, workflows and custom solutions until it delivers results.
Solutions engineers mostly support sales with demos and technical answers. Forward deployed engineers write production code for customers after the sale and own the deployment's success.
Many are remote with occasional customer travel; some require a region or on-site weeks. Each listing states the employer's location rules.
Yes, for normal use: profiles, browsing and up to 20 applications a day are free. Credits are optional, for extra applications or to put one at the top.
