Forward Deployed Engineer

We’re hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer to work directly with technical customers and help them get value from Cekura.

You’ll sit at the intersection of customers, product, engineering, and GTM. Your job is to deeply understand how customers build agents, help them create self-improving loops with Cekura, and turn those learnings into better product and better process.

Embed deeply with customers Work with customers to understand their agent workflows, onboard them well, and help them build continuous loops across testing, monitoring, debugging, and improvement.

Automate product insights Build systems and workflows that show how customers use Cekura, where they get value, where they get stuck, and where we should help next.

Drive product direction Turn customer learnings into clear product feedback, RFCs, and roadmap input. Help us decide what to build next.

Build the FDE org Create the playbooks, processes, and standards for how FDE works at Cekura.
