What a Labelbox forward deployed engineer does

Company profile

A Labelbox forward deployed engineer (FDE) does not deploy a product inside a customer. Instead, you build the sandboxed environments that AI agents train and are tested in.

Labelbox forward deployed engineer work: RL environments

The posting is titled Forward Deployed Engineer, RL Environments. RL means reinforcement learning, where an AI agent learns by trying tasks. The posting covers terminal-based task benchmarks, browser and computer-use environments, and workspaces where agents use tools. These are built on frameworks like TerminalBench, OSWorld and Tau-bench.

You write containerised, repeatable environments and add logging and trajectory capture. You work with Labelbox's data operations team, so the environments suit both human annotators and model agents. The posting is clear that this is engineering, not ML research.

It asks for professional software engineering experience with strong Python.
