HOW TO BECOME A FORWARD DEPLOYED ENGINEER (53 MIN MASTERCLASS) Some forward deployed engineers are getting PAID $1M+/year (kinda crazy, I know) And I REALIZED almost nobody talks about HOW they do it in any detail. It's basically nowhere online. So I asked someone who does it ALL DAY LONG for Fortune 500 companies to walk me through it, step by step. and he shares EXACTLY how he does it youtube.com/watch?v=1a5HxU52… Here's what I learned: 1. They start by listening, not building. They interview the people doing the work and let agents quietly read the company's data for a few weeks. The real process is almost always 3x longer than the one on paper. 2. They sort every step into four buckets: delete it, automate it with a simple rule, give it to an AI agent, or keep a human on it. A surprising amount ends up in the first bucket. 3. They build inside the tools the company already uses. Nobody has to learn a new app. When a human needs to sign off, it's just a Slack message. 4. They use the cheapest model that gets the job done. Most of this work doesn't need the most expensive AI. 5. They measure everything before and after, then come back 6 months later and prove it worked. This + concrete client examples + way more on today's episode of @startupideaspod (thanks to @vasuman) A full course pretty much on the topic aivalable to you 100% for free. This episode is for ANYONE who wants to be a FDE or who wants to make their company AI-native by deploying agents. Watch
