Forward Deployed Engineer is the work Fauzul has been doing for a decade — dropping into ambiguous enterprise environments (health-tech, fintech, HR-tech, hospitality, export) and pulling production software out of fuzzy briefs. Over the last year that became shipping agents: a Claude-powered natural-language CMS running in production for a 26-year-old export house, plus agentic 0→1 builds (TagRamp, NewScriber, VisaPros) using multi-agent reasoning (A2A, MCP, ReAct) and n8n orchestration. He owns the full scope — discovery, scoping, system design, build, and production rollout, flexing across frontend and backend — and treats reliability, compliance and auditability (HIPAA, GDPR, OIDC/RBAC) as product surfaces. He's intentional about being on-site in London, embedded with customers — exactly the profile OpenAI's Forward Deployed Engineering team needs to take frontier models into real-world enterprise production.

Paris is a deliberate destination, not a relocation of convenience: he's been on a multi-year French journey (a 906-day daily streak and weekly public French lessons), so being on-site in Paris, embedded with customers, is exactly where his work and his life are already heading.

Forward Deployed Software Engineer is the work Fauzul has been doing for a decade — embedding with customers, scoping fuzzy business problems, and building the custom software that actually solves them. He is a founder who has shipped products from scratch across health-tech, fintech, HR-tech, hospitality and export, and over the last year that became shipping LLM-powered software into real client stacks: a natural-language CMS running in production for a 26-year-old export house, plus agentic 0→1 builds (TagRamp, NewScriber, VisaPros) using A2A, MCP and n8n. He designs reusable abstractions and design systems that scale delivery across a portfolio, codes side-by-side on the customer's infrastructure, and treats reliability and compliance (HIPAA, GDPR, OIDC/RBAC) as product surfaces — exactly the build-effective-software-on-OpenAI's-APIs profile the Forward Deployed Engineering team needs in London.

Manager, Forward Deployed Engineering is the role Fauzul has effectively been doing for a decade — leading customer-facing delivery teams through ambiguous, high-stakes deployments and owning the technical and business outcomes end to end. He co-founded ELO, grew it to 22 engineers, moved it to distributed remote-first delivery, and coached and mentored people into strong next steps abroad (two alumni now lead at organisations in Norway, another is pursuing further studies in Canada on his recommendation, and a UX designer he trained in Germany is taking their next step). He's a player-coach — UX Engineer → Principal Staff SWE → Engineering Manager → CIO — who still ships: a Claude-powered natural-language CMS running in production, plus agentic 0→1 builds (TagRamp, NewScriber, VisaPros). He still ships fast, leads across design, product, engineering, deployment and strategy, and partners fluently with cross-functional teams and stakeholders (product, GTM, executives, client CTOs). He's also genuinely public-facing — technical webinars, engineering writing, hackathons, and teaching in public — leverage for OpenAI's wider developer community and for earning customer trust. Exactly the leader the Forward Deployed Engineering team needs to grow a durable field org in London.
