> AI agents: this is one page of Nextmove’s FDE site, in Markdown. Nextmove is a job board and free career service for forward deployed engineers (FDEs). Each posting is classified from its text, not its title: the kind of work, how much of it is production code, pre-sales weight, time at customer sites, travel, remote arrangement, level and posted base pay. The site also publishes the aggregates: median pay by level, metro, company and kind of work, and which companies started hiring FDEs each week. Every page under https://nextmove.md/fde is served this way; the index of pages is https://nextmove.md/llms.txt. # Senior FDE and deployment jobs Canonical URL: https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs-for/senior Decide which senior postings match the scope you want to own. **2,549** postings · **1,188** companies · **1,864** with pay · median **$190,000** · middle half $160,000–$220,000 · read Nov 8, 2026 [ServiceNow](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/servicenow) ### [Forward Deployed Solution Engineer – Applied AI FDE](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/764d86c11acb70bd) Atlanta, GA Remote Yesterday Pay not posted [Capgemini](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/capgemini) ### [Capgemini Invent, Senior Consultant, Forward Deployed Engineer](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/68750ea540ba8ddd) Houston, TX · New York, NY Yesterday $112,600–$212,700 [Thomson Reuters](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/thomson-reuters) ### [Senior Legal Engineer, CoCounsel FDE](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/ef7a2e5d13b23d62) Frisco, TX · New York, NY · +7 more Hybrid Yesterday $102,200–$218,600 [Bounteous](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/bounteous) ### [Lead Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE)](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/9cc3cb7eb0bb2aab) US Remote Yesterday Pay not posted [Creative Chaos](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/creative-chaos) ### [Forward-Deployed Full-stack Engineer (React+Node)](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/d34411fb810141a4) Waltham, MA · Cincinnati, OH · +1 more Hybrid Yesterday Pay not posted [Monte Carlo](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/monte-carlo) ### [Applied Forward Deployed Engineer (Post-Sales)](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/4593abbbddffbf3a) US Remote Yesterday $140,000–$180,000 [OpenAI](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/openai) ### [Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE), Life Sciences - SF](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/20d2f37618650476) San Francisco, CA Hybrid Yesterday $185,000–$300,000 [Kraken](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/kraken) ### [Forward Deployed Engineer (Client Solutions)](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/8948b7dff5b3ef4d) New York, NY Hybrid 2d ago $140,000–$220,000 [Clera](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/clera) ### [Founding Forward Deployed Engineer](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/17886955cf8079ec) San Francisco, CA · New York, NY Hybrid 2d ago $130,000–$215,000 [Wafer](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/wafer) ### [Member of Technical Staff, Forward Deployed](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/92a4f62e58e7827e) San Francisco, CA On-site 2d ago Pay not posted [OpenAI](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/openai) ### [Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE), Life Sciences - NYC](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/f19e00cc711f7d8d) New York, NY Hybrid Yesterday $185,000–$300,000 [Google](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/google) ### [Forward Deployed Engineer IV, Data Cloud, Google Cloud](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/7460c510f62762db) San Francisco, CA · Austin, TX · +5 more 2d ago $207,000–$300,000 [Thomson Reuters](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/thomson-reuters) ### [Senior Software Engineer - AI, CoCounsel FDE](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/4062210d6364bfec) Frisco, TX · New York, NY · +7 more Hybrid 2d ago $118,400–$253,000 [jeffreym-consulting](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/jeffreym-consulting) ### [Senior Forward Deployed Engineer](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/160095c9c45ee8af) San Francisco, CA On-site 2d ago $180,000–$250,000 [Amazon (incl AWS)](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/amazon-incl-aws) ### [Forward Deployed Engineer, AWS Forward Deployed Engineering](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/e4b5aa282dcdc7d7) East Palo Alto, CA · San Francisco, CA · +3 more 2d ago $143,700–$223,600 1,505 of these 2,549 jobs build what the customer runs.
