Forward Deployed Engineer

Our Forward Deployed Engineers are not support engineers, they're builders. Forward Deployed Engineers build our business within the context of a single customer at a time. They seek out valuable problems that hold our customers back.

The problems we work on are multi-domain, affecting cashflow, production, safety, and the environment. A Forward Deployed Engineer doesn't stop at finding problems, but goes on to create solutions and prove their value, owning the process from start to finish. Forward Deployed Engineers, by solving a specific version of the problem for a specific customer, also help to navigate Gecko's platforms - Gecko's tools that scale across customers.

- Solve Real Problems: We search for the highest impact problems we can find, we spend a lot of time with our customers to understand their true nature, we come up with new ways, and we don't quit until we've reached impact.

- Growth: The problems we work on are hard. No one has yet solved them. We are constantly learning and trying - and that includes learning about ourselves.

We are a group who loves to grow - even if it requires hard work to do so.

- Bachelor's degree in fields such as Computer Science, Computer Engineering Mathematics, Software Engineering, Physics, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or relevant experience.

- Familiarity with data structures, storage systems, cloud infrastructure, front-end frameworks, and other technical tools.

- Understanding of how technical decisions impact the user of what you're building.

- Proficiency with programming languages such as Java, C++, Python, JavaScript, or similar languages.

- Ability to work effectively in teams of technical and non-technical individuals.

- Skill and comfort working in a rapidly changing environment with dynamic objectives and iteration with users.

- Demonstrated ability to continuously learn, work independently, and make decisions with minimal supervision.
