The Role at a Glance 

Forward Deployed Product 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 Product 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 Product 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. 

Technologies We Use

• Python, JavaScript, C++
• Google Cloud, Amazon Web Services

What you will do

• 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.
