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. # Forward Deployed Engineer, Privy Canonical URL: https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/0d59ec2bd097d76f Stripe posts a FDE role to build what the customer runs in New York, NY, at $190,400–$285,600 base, above the senior FDE median of $190,000 across 1,864 postings with pay.

To do so, we build simple, flexible APIs and tools for developers that make it easy to build new products on crypto rails. Privy owns the abstractions and infrastructure layer above wallets, integrating across chains, third-party providers, and Stripe products like Treasury and Link. We get to solve hard technical problems while leveraging Stripe's distribution to reach customers like Ramp, Klarna, Deel, Kraken, Hyperliquid, and Fomo — powering experiences for both mainstream users and crypto natives. ### About the team Engineering at Privy is distinguished by - High urgency—Shipping very small iterations, very fast, to learn very quickly - Product taste—Our customers *are* developers, and to build effective products for them requires technical knowledge—you will often be "the PM." - Security mindset—A great portion of our product is trust. While we have a dedicated security team, every engineer brings security to their designs from the start. In practice, we use boring technology like Node, React, and AWS so we can focus our engineering energy entirely on pushing the boundaries of Privy's core product, e.g. through hardware enclaves, multi-region low latency APIs, and blockchain abstractions that are accessible to mainstream developers. ### What you’ll do We're looking for an exceptional Forward Deployed Engineer to join our team and be the primary technical owner for building out new capabilities with Privy's most important customers. In this role, you will combine technical expertise with a deep understanding of customer and business objectives to architect, develop, and deploy software features that address customers’ needs and evolve the capabilities of Privy’s core products. Customer obsession is a core part of Privy’s culture. You’ll work closely with fellow engineers, product, and business teams to ensure Privy's customers achieve their desired outcomes and are delighted by our products. ### Responsibilities - Work directly with customers to understand their technical and operational objectives, scope requirements, and prototype and propose software solutions - Design, code, and launch features that improve and innovate on Privy’s core product using tools like **TypeScript**, **React**, and **Next.js**, and own end-to-end development - Drive product deployments, including configuration, testing, and troubleshooting - Champion customer success, ensuring the team understands, prioritizes, and pursues customer feedback and pain points - Dive deep into customer codebases to understand product usage and friction points, and uncover opportunities for improvements - Partner with internal stakeholders to continuously align product roadmap and strategy with customer needs and objectives ### Who you are We’re looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement. ### Minimum requirements - 5+ years of professional, hands-on full-stack development experience with languages such as JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Python, Go, or Java - Excel at rapid prototyping while maintaining appropriate quality standards - Superb problem-solving skills and ability to understand the product and business side of development (in other words, you see the big picture) - Experience building and owning features end-to-end - Excellent ability to communicate and collaborate with both technical and non-technical stakeholders - A passion for handling ambiguity and picking up new technologies, frameworks, and tools - An entrepreneurial and high ownership mindset - A desire for impact and a deep sense of urgency for your work ### Preferred qualifications - Written open-source developer tooling - Published your work (code, presentations, papers, blog posts, etc.) - Experience building web3 applications [View posting at Stripe](https://stripe.com/careers/listing/forward-deployed-engineer-privy/7230452?gh_jid=7230452) ## About Stripe Financial infrastructure APIs (payments, billing, tax, identity, issuing) used by millions of businesses from startups to global enterprises to run revenue online.
