What the job really is

As a Forward Deployed Engineer at Redapt, you will work directly with clients to design, build, and implement AI solutions in their environments. Your responsibilities include writing production-quality Python code, advising on AI architecture and security, and engaging with stakeholders to ensure successful AI deployments. This role combines hands-on engineering with strategic advisory work to enhance client ROI from AI investments.

Things to weigh
  • Travel typically 20% or less a year
  • The role requires strong client engagement skills and the ability to communicate technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
  • The position blends engineering with advisory responsibilities, which may appeal to those looking for a varied role but could be challenging for those preferring a strictly technical focus.
