Forward Deployed Engineering

Forward Deployed Engineeringfrom discovery to deployment

GI embeds engineers with your teams to discover workflows in production, commit to measurable outcomes, and ship secure agentic AI/ML and cloud systems your organization can deploy.

Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE)

That model: embedded engineers, measurable outcomes, and systems your teams can operate after deployment.

Three disciplines intersect in forward-deployed engineering (FDE): domain expertise (workflows and institutional context), software engineering (agents, integration, production systems), and business alignment (stakeholders, adoption, measurable outcomes). That intersection carries you from discovery through deployment: integration, evals, governance, and adoption from day one.

Domain expertise, software engineering, and business alignment intersect in one role: integration, evals, governance, and adoption from day one.
