Forward Deployed EngineerActive

The opportunity

Forward Deployed Engineers embed directly with customer engineering teams to ship production-grade Cursor workflows that measurably improve how they build software.

What you'll do

  • Lead discovery with customer engineers to identify the real bottleneck and define clear success metrics

  • Design and build Cursor-powered workflows (e.g., large-scale refactors,: migrations, PR review loops, incident → fix pipelines, spec → implementation systems)

  • Ship a fast first version in days, then harden it into something reliable: over weeks with proper rollout plans, monitoring, and iteration based on real usage

  • Own production quality: tracing, evals, metrics, debugging model behavior, latency/cost tradeoffs, and failure modes

  • Work directly with Staff+/Platform/Eng leaders: going deep in code while also communicating clearly about tradeoffs and results

  • Turn what you build into reusable patterns and push improvements back into the core Cursor product
