## About the role

Forward Deployed Engineering is how we build that platform with real clients instead of guessing. An FDE embeds with a client, works in the client's own codebase, and builds their integration against OpenLoop's production API. Whatever the client needs that the platform cannot do yet is filed as a platform gap and built once, centrally, so every client inherits it. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- End-to-end ownership of complex, customer-facing technical delivery: you can name the deployments you ran, what went wrong, and what you did about it after launch
- Strong integration engineering depth: API design and consumption, auth, webhooks versus polling, idempotency, rate limits, pagination, schema drift, reconciliation, and comfort across the stack from APIs to data to cloud infrastructure
- You build with AI agents every day and can show how you verify what they produce, when you stop trusting them, and how you evaluate an LLM-based system before it reaches a customer
- Experience handling sensitive data with a security-first mindset, treating compliance constraints as design inputs rather than follow-ups
- Excellent communication with technical and non-technical audiences, including delivering unwelcome news to a customer early and keeping the relationship
- Demonstrated judgment about scope: you can point to things you descoped, sequenced or declined, and explain why
