> 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. # FDE and deployment jobs in Austin at early-stage companies Canonical URL: https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs?companyStage=early®ion=austin 20 forward deployed engineer and deployment jobs in Austin at early-stage companies, from 11 employers. **20** postings · **11** companies Postings read on November 6, 2026 · Updated November 6, 2026 [H Company](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/h-company) ### [Founding Forward Deployed Engineer - US](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/e2fc21f78f9a6a01) Austin, TX · New York, NY Hybrid 9d ago Pay not posted [NODA AI](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/noda-ai) ### [Forward-Deployed Solution Engineer - International](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/e5fdf8cde7a8eb3a) Austin, TX On-site 6mo ago Pay not posted [webAI](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/webai) ### [Senior Forward Deployed AI Engineer](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/5681002f691861d0) Austin, TX · Washington, DC Hybrid 6mo ago Pay not posted [Rune Technologies](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/rune-technologies) ### [Forward Deployed Engineer](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/df8545f829bbcc4c) Austin, TX On-site 6mo ago $190,000–$210,000 [H Company](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/h-company) ### [Founding Forward Deployed Engineer - US](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/0fe4112f3d62e9d4) Austin, TX · San Francisco, CA · +1 more Hybrid 2mo ago Pay not posted [Eliza](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/eliza) ### [Senior Forward Deployed Engineer](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/f5d9dd7aa0343d25) Austin, TX Hybrid 16mo ago Pay not posted [H Company](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/h-company) ### [Founding Forward Deployed Engineer - US](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/de0ff307c6d67d9b) Austin, TX · San Francisco, CA · +1 more Hybrid 2mo ago Pay not posted [Mia Labs, Inc.](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/mia-labs-inc) ### [Senior Solutions Engineer](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/d58f02a787a71954) Austin, TX Hybrid 3mo ago Pay not posted [Gallatin AI](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/gallatin-ai) ### [Mission Operations Engineer](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/f81c45e021c5160f) Austin, TX On-site 6mo ago Pay not posted [NODA AI](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/noda-ai) ### [Senior Solution Engineer / Solution Architect](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/9970f6dad2353aa4) Austin, TX Hybrid 6mo ago Pay not posted [DevRev](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/devrev) Integrates and configures it ### [Forward Deployed Architect](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/8d78b7fd13b932d7) Austin, TX 18mo ago Pay not posted [Arcade.dev](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/arcade-dev) Proves it works before the sale ### [Forward Deployed Engineer](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/0f2a43575bfcb566) Austin, TX Hybrid 5mo ago From $180,000 [H Company](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/h-company) Plans what the customer deploys first ### [Deployment Strategist - US](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/505c60db81fbe5f6) Austin, TX · San Francisco, CA · +1 more Hybrid 4w ago Pay not posted [H Company](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/h-company) Plans what the customer deploys first ### [Deployment Strategist - US](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/164df6750dfc857c) Austin, TX · New York, NY · +1 more Hybrid 4w ago Pay not posted [H Company](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/h-company) Plans what the customer deploys first ### [Deployment Strategist - US](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/f3a8d02dc926fb61) Austin, TX · San Francisco, CA · +1 more Hybrid 5mo ago Pay not posted [Gyde](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/gyde) Leads the deployment team ### [Head of AI Deployment](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/ba7b23671ec1f28a) Austin, TX · New York, NY New · 3d ago $215,000–$245,000 [webAI](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/webai) Builds for teams inside the company ### [Staff Platform Engineer](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/7c446f9aec340c4a) Austin, TX 2w ago Pay not posted [Level](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/level) Builds for teams inside the company ### [Applied AI Engineer](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/9215b5d9e175d868) Austin, TX On-site 3w ago Pay not posted [webAI](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/webai) Leads the deployment team ### [Director of Applied AI](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/80efef3cae855049) Austin, TX Hybrid 5mo ago Pay not posted [Level](https://nextmove.md/fde/companies/level) Builds for teams inside the company ### [ Senior Applied AI Engineer](https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/fe7dfce6c4433d1e) Austin, TX On-site 5mo ago Pay not posted 10 of 20 build what the customer runs.
