Forward Deployed Engineer - Aerospace

Istari's software doesn't just get handed off, it gets deployed into some of the most complex engineering environments in aerospace and defense.  As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you'll be embedded directly inside our customer organizations, operating as part of their team while remaining tightly connected to Istari's product and engineering core.

This is not a support role.  You are a builder.  You'll write real code, architect integrations, and solve hard problems that emerge at the intersection of digital engineering workflows and mission-critical operations.  The challenges you'll tackle require the instincts of a strong software engineer and the adaptability of someone who thrives in unstructured environments.  Challenges like connecting CAD, CFD, FEM pipelines to Istari's platform; unlocking cross-discipline and cross-clearance collaboration; enabling organizations to actually use the tools in which they've invested.

You'll work alongside Istari Program Managers who are embedded in the same customer environments.  They carry the program context and stakeholder relationships while you own the technical execution.  Together, you operate as a unit capable of handling almost anything a customer throws at you.  The best Forward Deployed Engineers make our product smarter, not just our customers happier.
