Why Forward Deployed Engineering
The market is desperate for people who can put AI into production.
Every company is racing to adopt AI. The bottleneck isn't the models — it's the people who can deploy them.
The role every AI company is hiring for
Models don't ship themselves. FDEs do — and demand has outpaced supply with no sign of slowing.
A high-leverage career pivot
No ML research required. Ship, communicate, and solve real problems — we compress the skills into six focused weeks.
Practical over theoretical, always
Every week you build, deploy, and demo real software with AI in the loop — no passive lectures.
Open to generalists and specialists
Engineers, analysts, PMs, consultants, and domain experts all succeed here. We meet you where you are.
Fast-track to an offer
Graduate with deployed projects, interview ready stories, and warm intros to companies hiring right now.
The 6-week program
Six weeks. Six shipped projects. One new career.
Every week ends with working, deployed software — not slides.
Foundations & first deploy
Ship a production AI feature on day one. Prompting, retrieval, evals, and the deployment loop.
Building with LLMs in production
Agents, tool calling, structured outputs, and guardrails that hold up against real customer data.
Data, retrieval & integration
Connect AI to enterprise data sources. Vector search, pipelines, and the integrations FDEs run every day.
The customer-facing engineer
Turn vague business problems into shipped features. The consulting edge that separates FDEs from engineers.
Scale, security & reliability
Observability, cost control, and governance — the production discipline enterprises demand.
Capstone & go-to-market
Full capstone, portfolio polish, mock interviews, and warm intros to companies hiring now.
