Job Description

We are looking for a Senior Forward Deployed Engineer who can be dropped into a client engagement and trusted to run a workstream end-to-end with minimal oversight. You are an AI-native operator who builds, configures, and extends solutions in live customer environments. You are not a retrained consultant or a business analyst with access to AI tools. As a Senior FDE, you lead with deep expertise in one specialization but operate across the full problem space. You are the person who walks into a client meeting with a vague problem and walks out with a workable scope. You decompose ambiguity, ship working solutions fast, and ensure that what you build is actually adopted — not just deployed.

You are client-ready from day one. You represent IG Labs in every interaction. You mentor Junior FDEs, set the standard for what good looks like, and contribute to IP capture that makes every future engagement faster.
