Forward Deployed Engineer Jobs in Switzerland

The interesting signal isn't the role, it's the org chart: DeepJudge — a Zurich legal-AI scale-up founded by ex-Google search engineers with ETH PhDs — has stood up a whole 'Deployment Engineering' function (FDE, Pre-Sales, Production, SRE, Solution Architect) rather than one lonely FDE. You'd deploy enterprise search across on-prem and cloud for firms like Freshfields and Holland & Knight, wrangling document-management systems and hundred-million-doc datasets. A rare on-site, non-US frontier seat.

A top-5 pharma is standing up a three-level FDE org — Exec Director, Director, and IC postings live simultaneously. The clearest signal yet that the title has escaped tech.
