## About the role

Forward Deployed Engineers at Belisar are the rare engineers who are equally at home in a terminal and in a customer briefing. You will live at the boundary between our product and the hardest operational problems in the federal ecosystem: understanding user needs, implementing product, connecting integrations, and writing code to deliver on the most important outcomes for a customer within the defense space. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 2+ years of software engineering / forward deployed engineering experience, with a strong foundation in at least one backend language (Python, Go, Java, or similar), at a top tier-startup, enterprise, or your own projects
- Hands-on experience deploying or integrating software in complex, real-world environments, not just greenfield development
- Fluency with data: SQL, ETL pipelines, REST APIs, and working with structured and unstructured data sources
- Strong debugging instincts and the ability to diagnose problems across the full stack, including infrastructure and networking layers
- A customer mindset: you understand that the best technical solution is the one that actually gets used
- Exceptional written and verbal communication: you can explain a complex system to a program manager and a junior analyst in the same conversation
