What you will do

Your mission

UiPath is redefining enterprise automation with AI. As a Senior Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE), you’ll work directly with customers to design and deploy agentic, AI-powered workflows that transform how businesses operate.

This is a highly technical, customer-facing role for engineers who enjoy building in real-world environments. You’ll take ambiguous problems, turn them into production systems, and see your work deliver immediate, measurable impact.

If you thrive at the intersection of AI engineering, systems design, and customer impact — this role is built for you.

What you need

5–8+ years of software engineering experience, including applied or customer-facing work.
Strong coding skills in Python and/or TypeScript.
Hands-on experience with LLMs, prompt engineering, and production AI systems.
Experience building and deploying complex, integrated systems.
Ability to operate in ambiguity and move quickly from idea to production.
Strong communication skills with both engineers and business stakeholders.
Customer-facing experience managing technical risks, timelines, tradeoffs, and stakeholder expectations.
Ability to mentor engineers and contribute to reusable assets, technical standards, and delivery best practices.
Travel: ~20–30% to customer sites.

Strong Preference

PhD or Master’s in Computer Science or a related field.
Experience with agent frameworks, orchestration systems, or distributed systems.
Familiarity with LLM providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, etc.
Background in applied AI, machine learning, or automation platforms (UiPath, RPA, workflow engines).
Experience in startup, consulting, or forward-deployed environments.
Experience with prompt management, LLM evaluation, agent observability, and production support practices.
Familiarity with enterprise security, governance, compliance, and operational readiness requirements.
Experience presenting technical recommendations to senior customer stakeholders or executives.
Experience contributing to reference architectures, reusable delivery patterns, or internal technical enablement.

Maybe you don’t tick all the boxes above—but still think you’d be great for the job? Go ahead, apply anyway. Please. Because we know that experience comes in all shapes and sizes—and passion can’t be learned.

Many of our roles allow for flexibility in when and where work gets done. Depending on the needs of the business and the role, the number of hybrid, office-based, and remote workers will vary from team to team. Applications are assessed on a rolling basis and there is no fixed deadline for this requisition. The application window may change depending on the volume of applications received or may close immediately if a qualified candidate is selected.
