All 1,847 build what the customer runs.
See what FDE postings that build what the customer runs pay, and what that kind of work covers.
These postings write the production code that runs in the customer's own system, rather than selling it, configuring it or leading the team. Employers often call the job Forward Deployed Engineer or Forward Deployed Software Engineer. It is a different question from the coding filter: a posting here can spend most of its coding on production code, on prototypes or on configuration.
