Lead Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE)

What you'll do:

• Own the end-to-end technical design of agentic solutions on Claude, from discovery and workflow mapping through production rollout and continuous improvement.
• Match autonomy to the use case using Anthropic's agent design patterns: start with the simplest composable workflow (prompt chaining, routing, parallelization) and move to orchestrator-subagent or evaluator-optimizer designs only when the task requires it.
• Select the right runtime for each workload: the Claude Agent SDK for agents embedded in client applications, Claude Managed Agents for long-running hosted agents, and Claude Code for engineering workflows, deployed through the Claude Platform, Claude Platform on AWS, or Amazon Bedrock based on…
• Design the tool and context layer: build and govern MCP servers that connect Claude to enterprise systems and data, package domain expertise as Agent Skills, and apply context engineering (progressive disclosure, compaction, memory, subagent context isolation) so agents stay accurate across long,…
• Lead model strategy across the Claude family, matching Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku to task complexity, latency, and volume, and using prompt caching, batch processing, and extended thinking and effort controls to keep cost predictable.
• Define human-in-the-loop checkpoints, permission scopes, and approval gates matched to each workflow's risk profile.
