## Description

A Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) works directly with customers to understand their greatest problems and design and implement solutions to use data against them. As an FDE, you'll apply your problem-solving ability, creativity, and technical skills to help organisations use their data to drive a real impact in the world.

Your responsibilities will be similar to those of a startup CTO: you'll work in small teams with minimal supervision and own end-to-end execution of high-stakes projects. Your day might span discussing architecture with fellow engineers, wrangling massive-scale data, coding a custom web app, speaking with customer executives, or establishing strategy for your team.

As an FDE, you'll learn how to unpack a problem and understand the costs and consequences of its solution. You'll learn new technologies and languages, and even develop them yourself. You'll work autonomously and make decisions independently, within a community that will support and challenge you as you grow and develop.

## Core Responsibilities

- Impact: We take on meaningful and challenging projects that change the world for the better

- Ownership: We see projects through from beginning to end, working through any obstacles we may encounter

- Collaboration: We work internally with people from a variety of backgrounds , such as other FDEs, product teams, and Deployment Strategists. We also work externally with our customers, often on site, to understand and solve their problems

- Trust: We trust each other to effectively manage time and priorities and give people the space to think for themselves

- Growth: We encourage ourselves and our peers to seek new challenges and opportunities for growth, as well as find new ways to innovate and share knowledge

- Learning: We often face entirely novel problems where we need to pick up a lot of new knowledge and learn how to use it to make progress.

## What We Value

- Strong engineering background, preferred in fields such as Computer Science, Mathematics, Software Engineering, Physics, and Data Science

- A highly analytical mindset and eagerness to solve technical problems with data structures, storage systems, on-premises and cloud infrastructure, front-end frameworks, and other technical tools

- Experience or interest in working with and using large-scale data to solve valuable business problems

- Strong coder with demonstrated proficiency in programming languages such as Python, Java, C++, TypeScript/JavaScript, or similar

- Demonstrated ability to collaborate effectively in teams of technical and non-technical individuals, and comfortable working in a rapidly changing environment with dynamic objectives and iteration with users

- Ability to continuously learn, work independently, and make decisions with minimal supervision

## Requirements

- Lithuanian Security Clearance or the ability to obtain one

- Ability to travel 70-90% of the time

- Open to relocation within Europe

- Fluency in English

## Additional Information

The salary range for this position is estimated to be €2,800 - €6,000/month. Total compensation for this position may also include Restricted Stock units, sign-on bonus and other potential future incentives.
