Forward Deployed Engineer, Command by Asana
Why it's interesting
A ~$700M-revenue public company spinning up an FDE bench is its own signal — Asana is staffing Forward Deployed Engineers specifically to land 'Command,' its new agentic offering, rather than leaving deployment to Solutions or CS. Note the comp: $248K–$282K base in NYC (base, not OTE) lands above most startup TC and undercuts only the frontier labs — a reminder that the incumbents are now competing for the same FDE talent on cash.
The role
Deeply technical, customer-facing FDE role helping product-development orgs deploy Command, Asana's new agentic offering. Work directly with customers, move from insight to implementation fast, and bring real-world learnings back into the product. 6+ yrs in software / forward-deployed / customer / solutions / implementation engineering; strong coding and systems thinking; comfort building and integrating across APIs, event flows, and data models. Office-centric hybrid (Mon/Tue/Thu) in NYC or SF. Verified on Asana's own careers site.
