Senior Forward Deployment Engineer

Job Description:

Senior Forward Deployment Engineer This role is Office Based, Hyderabad Office. We are seeking a driven and client-oriented Senior Forward Deployment Engineer to join our team and serve as the technical bridge between our engineering capabilities and our customers. You'll combine strong software engineering fundamentals with client engagement and technical leadership, ensuring our solutions are architected well, delivered on time, and aligned with real-world customer needs.

• Design and build scalable, reliable, and maintainable software solutions using sound engineering principles — data structures, algorithms, system design, and clean architecture.
• Work directly with clients to understand their business challenges, decompose ambiguous problems, and drive them to well-defined technical solutions.
• Take ownership of end-to-end delivery — from scoping and estimation through implementation, testing, deployment, and post-delivery support.
• Make pragmatic technical decisions around trade-offs in performance, scalability, cost, and time-to-delivery.
• Write clean, well-tested, production-ready code in Java and/or Python, following best practices around code reviews, testing, and CI/CD.
• Mentor and guide junior engineers through code reviews, design discussions, and pair programming — raising the bar for the team.
• Own task tracking, status reporting, and delivery timelines for client-facing projects, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.
• Conduct regular client check-ins, demos, and progress reviews — proactively communicating risks, blockers, and milestones.
• Drive technical decisions by evaluating frameworks, tools, and approaches with a bias for simplicity and long-term maintainability.
• Identify recurring problems and invest in automation, tooling, or process improvements that benefit the broader team.
• Participate in Agile ceremonies and contribute to both internal engineering discussions and external client-facing presentations.

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field.
• 3+ years of hands-on software engineering experience with strong proficiency in Java and/or Python.
• Strong CS fundamentals — data structures, algorithms, object-oriented design, and system design.
• Experience designing and building systems that are scalable, observable, and maintainable in production.
• Ownership mindset — you see things through from start to finish without waiting to be told what to do next.
• Excellent communication skills — ability to articulate technical trade-offs to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders with clarity and confidence.
• Demonstrated ability to lead by influence — driving alignment across teams, mentoring peers, and raising engineering standards.
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to track, prioritize, and deliver across multiple concurrent work streams independently.
• A bias for action balanced with sound judgment — you move fast but don't cut corners.
• Comfort with ambiguity and a track record of turning vague requirements into concrete, deliverable plans.
