Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The Forward Deployed Engineer acts as the technical owner for strategic accounts, guiding them from pre-sales validation through production deployment. They design and build Alkira-based network solutions while collaborating with product teams to shape the roadmap based on customer needs.
Candidates need 3+ years in a customer-facing technical role and 1+ years of experience architecting cloud solutions in AWS, Azure, GCP, or OCI. Proficiency in networking fundamentals, routing, and automation tools like Terraform and Python is required.
Alkira is growing our Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) team (formerly Solutions Architect) and looking for high-energy, dedicated professionals who can help new and existing clients succeed on our Network-Infrastructure-as-a-Service platform.
FDEs are hands-on technologists who embed directly with our largest strategic Enterprise accounts — from pre-sales technical validation through production deployment, adoption, and expansion.
The ideal candidate can demonstrate the key technical differentiators of the Alkira service, architect and build alongside customer teams, and help enterprises transform their network to become disruptive, creative, and innovative. As an FDE, you sit at the intersection of Sales, Engineering, and the customer: you win technical evaluations, deploy real solutions in customer environments, and shape the product roadmap with a deep understanding of customer technical needs.

ABOUT ALKIRA
Alkira, a Lumen company, is building the future of enterprise networking: one programmable platform to connect, secure, and operate every cloud, site, partner, data center, and AI workload.
Founded by Amir and Atif Khan, the creators of Viptela and pioneers of the SD-WAN market, Alkira was built to radically simplify how enterprises deploy and manage network infrastructure. Today, as part of Lumen, we are bringing that cloud-native operating model to a global network foundation trusted by the world’s largest enterprises.

At Alkira, you’ll help shape the next chapter of networking: cloud-like consumption, private-network performance, and total control across the enterprise. We move fast, solve hard problems, and build technology that changes how global businesses connect.
Join us and help build the future of networking.
