As a Forward Deployed Engineer , you will work inside PagerDuty’s largest customer accounts, connecting the SRE Agent to their production environments (observability tools, infrastructure as code, GitOps tooling, and CI/CD pipelines) and guiding their teams from AI-assisted incident response to supervised and autonomous actions with safety guardrails.

- Hands-on experience with LLM and agent systems in production, including agent development, tool-use frameworks (MCP or equivalent), evaluation pipelines, and guardrail design
- Customer-facing skills. You can run a technical design session with a customer’s engineers and present the business case to their leadership
