Who we are
We're Redis. We built the product that runs the fast apps our world runs on. (If you checked the weather, used your credit card, or looked at your flight status online today, you’re welcome.) At Redis, you’ll work with the fastest, simplest technology in the business—whether you’re building it, telling its story, or selling it to our 10,000+ worldwide customers. We’re creating a faster world with simpler experiences. You in?
The Team
What is FDE at Reds
Forward Deployed Engineering sits where Redis products meet the hardest business problems our customers actually have, at the edge of what was previously thought possible. There's no requirements doc. No vague bug ticket. You're sitting with the customer, working through it live: designing the data model, the library, the system that solves their problem.
That could mean building personalized AI agents that learn over time and use context efficiently. Getting lookup times under a millisecond. Scaling search to handle over 500K write ops/sec. Testing and tuning Redis Flex deployments up to 1PB. Whatever it is,
you own it end to end, from the hard technical question through the system that ships and keeps working, and you're measured by whether the customer's problem actually got solved. Along the way, you feed what you learn back into the Redis product.
How we function in the role
FDE is a unique team within Redis. We're an engineering team first, reporting directly into the CTO, but we're also tightly embedded in the broader customer organization: account executives, solutions architects, skilled services, customer success, and technical account managers.
We embed early on strategic, highly technical deals where we're needed to unblock and enable the technical solution. In specific cases, we carry that forward through paid, value-add FDE engagements after the sale. We look for builders: people who find the next hard problem themselves, propose the solution, and build it.
