Forward Deployed Engineer - India

Job Overview

Forward Deployed Engineers embed directly with customer engineering teams to ship production-grade Cursor workflows that measurably improve how they build software.

Key points

  1. Lead discovery with customer engineers to identify the real bottleneck and define clear success metrics.

  2. Design and build Cursor-powered workflows (e.g., large-scale refactors, migrations, PR review loops, incident fix pipelines, spec implementation systems).

  3. Ship a fast first version in days, then harden it into something reliable over weeks with proper rollout plans, monitoring…

  4. Own production quality: tracing, evals, metrics, debugging model behavior, latency/cost tradeoffs, and failure modes.

  5. Work directly with Staff+/Platform/Eng leaders — going deep in code while also communicating clearly about tradeoffs and results.

  6. Turn what you build into reusable patterns and push improvements back into the core Cursor product.
