Senior Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE)

Forward Deployed Engineer

When you join SBI as a Senior Full Stack Developer (Forward Deployed Engineering), you are joining a firm that is redefining how go-to-market consulting is delivered through data, analytics, and AI.

In this role, you will work directly with clients to identify their highest-impact problems, translate them into structured approaches, and design and deploy scalable, AI-powered solutions. You will operate side-by-side with clients building in real time, iterating quickly, and demonstrating value throughout the engagement.

You are not handed well-defined problems. You are expected to define them, solve them, and ensure solutions are adopted. This role requires a unique combination of technical depth, business acumen, and the ability to operate effectively with stakeholders in high-stakes environments.

Ideal candidates will have 5+ years of experience across software engineering, data engineering, data science, or applied AI. Specifically, the ideal candidate will have experience in:

Building and deploying data-driven or AI-powered systems in production using Next.js, React, and PostgreSQL

Developing workflows, automation, or agent-based systems with modern LLM/AI APIs

Working with APIs, integrations, and scalable system design on cloud platforms (Vercel, AWS, GCP)

Partnering directly with clients or stakeholders to define and solve ambiguous problems

Communicating technical concepts effectively to non-technical audiences

Operating in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where speed and quality are both expected

Experience in consulting, revenue operations, or go-to-market strategy is a strong plus.
