How we picked places

Finding forward deployed engineer jobs near you

A forward deployed engineer, or FDE, is an engineer who works inside a customer's team until the software is live. We read the public job boards of the companies we follow and kept the places where several employers hire FDEs.

A city with only a few employers is covered on its country page, or left out.

In Europe, FDE postings cluster in London, Paris, Munich, Berlin, Amsterdam and Dublin. GitLab also posts a remote EMEA role that covers several countries at once.

Companies can hire through us wherever they are. You tell us who you need, and we send a shortlist of people who fit.

Where forward deployed engineer jobs are posted

Remote roles, US metros and cities across Europe, Asia Pacific, Canada, India and the Gulf.

  • Clearance Government roles in Washington, DC, Honolulu and Sydney ask for security clearances.
  • Language Tokyo, Seoul, Paris and Singapore postings often ask for a second language.
  • Remote with travel Remote FDE roles exist, but Glean and Vannevar Labs still ask for travel.
