Role Overview:

The Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) is the most technically complete role at Oscilar. You sit at the intersection of customer success, platform expertise, and agentic AI deployment. From the first technical conversation with a prospective customer to live production and ongoing expansion, you own the full technical relationship.

This is not a support role, and it is not a sales role. It is an engineering solutions oriented role with deep customer proximity. You will be embedded with Oscilar's most strategic customers, designing agentic risk systems, driving implementations, and serving as the field intelligence that shapes what Oscilar builds next.

You operate with the ownership and judgment of a startup CTO — applied to some of the most relevant and consequential decisioning problems in financial services.

What You’ll Do:

TECHNICAL PRE-SALES

- Lead technical discovery with prospective customers, uncovering integration requirements, data architecture constraints, and risk decisioning objectives across onboarding, fraud, credit, and compliance use cases.

- Architect and deliver proof-of-concept implementations using Oscilar's platform, solving and showing value of customer’s problem through workflows and agentic solution that demonstrates clear time-to-value.

- Design and present technically rigorous solution architectures tailored to each prospect's environment, including API integration patterns, data pipeline design, and agent workflow configuration.

- Assist in responses to technical sections of RFPs, security questionnaires, and integration feasibility assessments.

- Serve as the primary technical voice during the evaluation process, building credibility and trust with engineering, data, and risk teams on the customer side.

CUSTOMER IMPLEMENTATION & DEPLOYMENT

- Own the end-to-end technical implementation for new customers partnering with the Technical Account Manager, Account Executive and Sales Engineer, from kickoff through go-live: integration design, data mapping, agent workflow configuration, and UAT support.

- Configure and optimize Oscilar's AI agents and decisioning rules to match each customer's operational context, risk appetite, and regulatory environment.

- Proficient using AI coding tools (Claude, Codex, Cursor, or similar) to rapidly prototype scripts, build workflow automations, parse logs, and debug integrations — you use AI as a force multiplier in your own work, not just in customer deployments.

- Serve as the primary technical point of contact for assigned accounts throughout the customer lifecycle, maintaining trusted advisor relationships with both technical practitioners and executive stakeholders.

- Lead technical health reviews, proactively surface performance gaps, and drive resolution of escalations with urgency and clear ownership.

- Proactively identify upsell and expansion opportunities — recognize when a customer's workflow gaps map to Oscilar capabilities they're not using, and bring a concrete proposal to the AE with enough technical depth to close it. You are a revenue signal, not just a technical resource.

- Lead technical enablement sessions and training to ensure customer teams are confident and self-sufficient operating Oscilar's agentic platform.

AGENTIC AI DEPLOYMENT

- Design and deploy multi-step agentic workflows for customers — automating onboarding, fraud investigation, credit decisioning, case management, alert triage, and compliance monitoring end to end.

- Configure agent parameters directly through Oscilar's UI: field mappings, matching logic thresholds, and disposition policies tailored to each customer's operational context.

- Evaluate customer data infrastructure, model outputs, and decisioning logic to tune agent performance and reliability in production environments.

- Craft and refine LLM prompts within agent workflows — structuring prompts effectively to drive accurate, auditable, and compliant agent behavior.

- Participate in agent backtesting sessions — running configuration changes against historical case data to validate performance before production deployment.

- Guide customers in defining their agentic AI strategy for risk operations: which decisions to automate, how to structure human-in-the-loop oversight, and how to measure agent effectiveness.

- Understand and communicate agent evaluation concepts (evals, golden datasets, false positive feedback loops) to customer stakeholders and internal teams.

- Stay at the forefront of agentic AI patterns, tooling, and emerging best practices — and bring that expertise into every customer strategy conversation.

PRODUCT INTELLIGENCE

- Synthesize patterns across customer deployments and deliver structured product feedback, feature requests, and gap analyses to Oscilar's product and engineering teams.

- Contribute reusable implementation playbooks, agent workflow templates, and integration accelerators that raise the bar across all customer deployments.

- Participate in roadmap discussions as the voice of the field — your proximity to customers and production deployments makes you uniquely positioned to identify what Oscila
