> 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. # Forward Deployed Academy 1 Week Hiring Bootcamp (on-site, Denver, USA) Canonical URL: https://nextmove.md/fde/jobs/ac407d19e2ba8394 Unit8 posts a junior FDE role to build what the customer runs in Denver, CO with no pay posted.

Our esteemed partnerships with industry giants like **Palantir**, **NVIDIA**, and **OpenAI** underscore our commitment to excellence. With over 200 successful projects and a team of 150+ talented professionals across Switzerland, Poland, and Germany, we are now expanding our footprint to the USA. Unit8 is dedicated to driving **AI adoption in non-digital industries**, accelerating their digital transformation. We invest in projects that matter, including pro-bono initiatives and "engineering for good" causes. ### Requirements ### The Program FDE Academy USA is a one-week, in-person bootcamp at our Denver Tech Center office. You'll spend five days building real solutions on Palantir Foundry alongside our engineering team — no lectures, no theory-only sessions, just hands-on education on a realistic use case. At the end of the week, our top performers walk away with a job offer to join Unit8 as a Forward Deployed Engineer. No prior Foundry experience required. We're looking for people who learn fast, think in systems, and are energized by ambiguous problems — not people who already know the platform. ### What the Week Looks Like - **Day 1** — Foundry fundamentals, environment setup, your first guided build - **Day 2–4** — Applied build sprints: ontology modeling, data pipelines, and a Workshop application, with our engineers pairing alongside you through a realistic but self-contained challenge that mirrors real client work - **Day 5** — Present what you built - **On the next Monday **- top performers get a call from our recruiting team ### What We're Looking For - Recent or upcoming graduate in Computer Science, Data Engineering, or a related field - Solid CS fundamentals: data structures, algorithms, databases, and at least one general-purpose language (Python, Java, TypeScript, or similar) - Coursework, personal projects, hackathons, or internships that show you can build, not just study - Comfort with ambiguity and a fast learning curve — you won't know Foundry/AIP yet, and that's fine - Curiosity about how data platforms power real decisions in industries like manufacturing, energy, and financial services ### Logistics - **Format:** Fully in-person, Denver Tech Center (DTC), CO - **Duration:** 1 week (starting on 16th of November) - **Equipment:** Bring your laptop - **Cohort:** Small group, working closely on realistic challenges with Unit8 engineers all week ### This program provides valuable training to participants and is unpaid. ### How to Apply Submit your CV and complete a short technical assessment. We'll confirm your spot in the cohort ahead of the bootcamp week. ### Benefits ### What we offer? - **Outcome:** Top performers receive an offer to join Unit8 as a Forward Deployed Engineer - **High-Stakes Work: If you're offered the job after the program:** You will work on critical projects that transform how major industries operate. - **A "Builder" Culture:** We are not a slide-deck consultancy. We build things that work. You will be surrounded by engineers and data scientists who share your passion for execution - **Groundbreaking Opportunity:** You will play a pivotal role in establishing Unit8's footprint in the USA, driving the growth and impact of our operations in this emerging market. *Unit8 is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace where all individuals are valued and respected.
