FDE Course Curriculum

Usually, most enterprise environments will be very locked down. Consequently, through our forward deployed engineer training course, engineers prepare to work within very secure zones where clients won’t allow internet access and enforce strict compliance requirements.

Forward Deployed Engineer Training

Security and Air Gaps

Air Gaps

Specifically, trainees will create, containerize, and deploy applications to secure air-gapped environments where there is no package registry or cloud access.

Identity & Access Management

Furthermore, the exercises will involve connecting modern applications to legacy enterprise identity services, such as Active Directory, SAML, and OAuth2 Proxies.

Compliance & Hardening

Consequently, engineers will audit local files and ensure there are no weak dependencies by patching systems to meet strict compliance standards set by financial or healthcare sectors.

CI/CD & Patching

If clients have issues integrating, then we truly cannot afford to wait for standard software updates. Therefore, engineers in FDE roles need to understand how to deploy quickly and remotely.

Hotfixes

For example, trainees will create scripts that can automatically rollback. In addition, safe patches will be applied directly to client clusters.

Lightweight Containerisation

Specifically, trainees will reduce the size of their application images so they can deploy quickly on slow and unreliable networks.

Configuration Drift

Moreover, engineers will use automation tools to ensure client servers are correct and set up as expected.

Observability & Logging

To truly understand what happens with an issue in a distributed environment, engineers will need to have good system visibility.

Logging

Specifically, trainees will set up light logging tools to collect errors from legacy systems and add them straight to dashboards.

Tracing Monoliths

Additionally, engineers will add tracing headers to older code bases.

Profiling

Furthermore, engineers will check memory leaks, CPU spikes, and database deadlocks in real time.

Career Change & Growing as an FDE

Moving from a traditional software engineer role to a field engineer role will ultimately change your career path.

Bridging The Gap

As a result, you will be the key link between product engineers, sales, and executives. You will bring real business goals right into the codebase.

Customer Success

Instead, engineers will move from creating software for unknown users to helping specific enterprise accounts get returns.

Technical Flexibility

Finally, your regular exposure to various tech stacks will rapidly increase your architectural knowledge.
