Our lean structure and remote team mean we can move fast while still delivering top-notch technology and design. The Role The software doesn't just get handed off, it gets deployed into some of the most complex engineering environments in aerospace and defense. As a Forward Deployed Engineer , you'll be embedded directly inside customer organizations, operating as part of their team while remaining tightly connected to the product and engineering core. This is not a support role . You are a builder . You'll write real code, architect integrations, and solve hard problems that emerge at the intersection of digital engineering workflows and mission-critical operations. The challenges you'll tackle require the instincts of a strong software engineer and the adaptability of someone who thrives in unstructured environments. Challenges like connecting CAD, CFD, FEM pipelines to the platform; unlocking cross-discipline and cross-clearance collaboration; enabling organizations to actually use the tools in which they've invested. You'll work alongside Program Managers who are embedded in the same customer environments. They carry the program context and stakeholder relationships while you own the technical execution .
