About the job
It’s an exciting time to join our Google Cloud Consulting team, leading the AI and cloud revolution for businesses worldwide. In this role, you’ll work hand-in-hand with our customers as an embedded builder, bridging the gap between frontier AI products and production-grade reality. We are looking for early-career, high-agency engineers with a founder’s mindset. Moving beyond high-level architecture, you will code, debug, and jointly ship bespoke agentic solutions directly within customer environments while helping solve integration, data readiness, and state-management challenges. Joining a collaborative culture with direct access to Google's engineering minds, you will act as an innovator-builder, providing white-glove deployment of complex AI systems and serving as a critical feedback loop to shape Google Cloud’s future product roadmap.
As a GenAI Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) at Google Cloud, you are an embedded builder who bridges the gap between frontier AI products and production-grade reality within customers. Unlike traditional advisory roles, you function as an "innovator-builder," moving beyond high-level architecture to code, debug, and jointly ship bespoke agentic solutions directly within the customer’s environment. This role is designed for high-agency engineers with a founder’s mindset. You will address blockers to production including solving the integration complexities, data readiness issues, and state-management challenges that prevent AI from reaching enterprise-grade maturity. By embedding with strategic accounts, you serve a dual purpose: providing "white glove" deployment of complex AI systems and acting as a critical feedback loop, transforming real-world field insights into Google Cloud’s future product roadmap.
Google is and always will be an engineering company. We hire people with a broad set of technical skills who are ready to address some of technology's greatest challenges and make an impact on millions, if not billions, of users. At Google, engineers not only revolutionize search, they routinely work on massive scalability and storage solutions, large-scale applications and entirely new platforms for developers around the world. From Google Ads to Chrome, Android to YouTube, Social to Local, Google engineers are changing the world one technological achievement after another.
Responsibilities
- Serve as a developer for complex AI applications, transitioning from rapid prototypes to production-grade agentic workflows (e.g., multi-agent systems, MCP servers) that drive measurable ROI.
- Architect and code the "connective tissue" between Google’s AI products and customer's live infrastructure, including APIs, legacy data silos, and security perimeters as part of an expert team.
- Build high-performance evaluation pipelines and observability frameworks to ensure agentic systems meet rigorous requirements for accuracy, safety, and latency.
- Identify repeatable field patterns and friction points in Google’s AI stack, converting them into reusable modules or formal product feature requests for the Engineering teams.
- Co-build with customer engineering teams to instill Google-grade development best practices, ensuring long-term project success and high end-user adoption.
