What they do
H Company is a Paris-based frontier lab building LLM agents. What stands out is organizational: it has called FDE 'the fastest-growing job category at H' and hired a dedicated Head of FDE, treating deployment as central to how the company grows rather than a downstream service.
What “forward deployed” means here
FDEs embed with customers to ship the lab's agentic systems into production. When a model shop makes deployment its growth engine, the role tends to carry real influence over what the product becomes — field learnings feed back into the models.
Comp & leveling
The US band is $150K–$200K, competitive for an early lab but below the top US frontier-lab cash tier; French seats follow local norms and typically don't publish comp. Weigh the equity and the scope of a founding-era field role alongside the cash.
Growth signals
A named Head of FDE, an explicitly fast-growing team, and dual Austin/Paris seats point to a company scaling its field org across two continents while still early.
