About Code Metal

Code Metal is redefining code translation for mission-critical industries, helping partners move more quickly and reliably from algorithm to silicon. Our platform accelerates deployment of DSP, RF, communications, and embedded signal processing algorithms onto heterogeneous compute targets, including GPUs, FPGAs, ASICs, and edge SoCs. We support automotive, aerospace, defense, and semiconductor partners deploying complex algorithms onto constrained hardware with speed and rigor.

We are hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) who will be a critical bridge between our platform and real-world deployments—working directly with customers to translate complex algorithms into production-ready implementations on specialized hardware.

The Role

Code Metal operates at the intersection of advanced algorithms and specialized hardware, where successful deployment requires both deep technical execution and close collaboration with customers. We’re looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer who can take ownership of delivering real-world outcomes: translating complex signal processing and compute workloads into performant implementations on GPUs, FPGAs, and edge systems.

This is not a purely internal engineering role. You will work directly with customer teams—often in high-stakes, mission-critical environments—to understand their constraints, debug complex issues, and ensure successful deployment. You will operate with high autonomy, owning problems end-to-end from initial scoping through production delivery.
