Become an AI Forward Deployed Engineer
The Complete
FDE Playbook
A 90-minute workshop on what FDE is, the tools it demands, and how to start building those skills today.

Software engineers write code. Forward deployed engineers close deals with it.

What's in store
90 minutes. First the role, then three live builds: an agent team that routes real work, a website shipped by coding agents, and the Skills and connectors that plug it all into real tools.
Basic workflow to working agent.
- Part 01·The role
The FDE Role, Decoded
- What a Forward Deployed Engineer actually does, and how it differs from SWE, ML and solutions roles
- How FDEs turn a vague client problem into a scoped AI solution
SWEML EngSolutionsFDE - Part 02·Agent design & orchestration
Build a Multi-Agent Customer Support System
- Design a router agent that reads every incoming ticket and hands it to the right specialist agent
- Learn the orchestration patterns behind multi-agent systems, and when a single agent is enough
The router exampleCustomer ticket→Router agent→BillingTech supportRefunds - Part 03·Coded live
Coding Agent Driven Development
- Build a working website live with Claude Code and Cursor, from first prompt to deployed page
- Work the way FDEs do: describe the outcome, let the agent write the code, review the diff, ship
ClaudeClaude CodeCursor - Part 04·Hands-on
Skills & MCP Connectors
- Package repeatable workflows as Skills that Claude loads only when the task needs them
- Connect your agents to the tools clients already use, like Slack, Notion and GitHub, through MCP connectors

02 / The role
Three roles. One title.
FDE stands for Forward Deployed Engineer.
F01 / 03
Forward
What it means for you
You work where the problem is.
No ticket queue between you and the client. You sit inside their tools and their data, and turn a vague ask into a scoped AI plan.
D02 / 03
Deployed
What it means for you
Your work goes live.
Demos don't count. What you build runs in production, inside the client's real tools, handling real customers.
E03 / 03
Engineer
What it means for you
You still build it yourself.
Multi-agent systems, websites, integrations. With coding agents at your side, you build what connects the model to the business, end to end.
Forward. Deployed. Engineer. The person who makes AI actually work for a business.
F + D + E
03 / Perfect for
Your next promotion in AI.
Writing code is getting cheaper every month. Making AI work inside a real business isn't. Be the person who can do the second.
Stop shipping tickets
Software Engineers:
Start shipping outcomes.
Start shipping outcomes.
You already write the code. FDEs own everything after it: the client's data, the edge cases, the go-live. That's the part of the job AI can't take from you.
Stop crunching data
Data Engineers:
You're closer than you think.
You're closer than you think.
Messy data, broken schemas, pipelines that have to hold: that's half the FDE job, and you do it daily. Add agents, coding agents and MCP connectors, and you have the other half.
The time is now
Tech Professionals:
Get in before it's crowded.
Get in before it's crowded.
Most people still haven't heard of this role. Walk out knowing what it is, why companies need it, and the exact stack to start learning tonight.
If you can write code and talk to a client, you're 90 minutes away from knowing if this is your next role.
