Company and context
- As a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) in the Google Cloud Consulting organization, you will be an embedded builder who bridges the gap between frontier AI products and production-grade reality within customers.
- Unlike traditional advisory roles, you will function as an innovator-builder, moving beyond high-level architecture to code, debug, and jointly ship bespoke agentic solutions directly within the customer’s environment.
- This role is designed for high-agency engineers with a founder’s mindset.
- You will address blockers to production including solving the integration complexities, data readiness issues, and state-management issues that prevent AI from reaching enterprise-grade maturity.
- By embedding with accounts, you will serve a dual purpose: providing white glove deployment of complex AI systems and acting as a critical feedback loop, transforming real-world field insights into Google Cloud’s future product roadmap.
- It's an exciting time to join Google Cloud’s Go-To-Market team, leading the AI revolution for businesses worldwide.
- You’ll excel by leveraging Google's brand credibility—a legacy built on inventing foundational technologies and proven at scale.
- We’ll provide you with the world's most advanced AI portfolio, including frontier Gemini models, and the complete Vertex AI platform, helping you to solve business problems.
- We’re a collaborative culture providing direct access to DeepMind's engineering and research minds, empowering you to solve customer challenges.
- Join us to be the catalyst for our mission, drive customer success, and define the new cloud era—the market is yours.

Is this a full-time role, and what type of contract does Google Switzerland offer?
This listing is a full-time position. The contract type shown here comes directly from the employer's original posting; always confirm exact hours, notice period and probation length with Google Switzerland during the application process, since these details can vary by role even within the same contract category.
Do I need a cross-border work permit for a role in Zürich?
EU/EFTA residents living in the border zone of the country adjoining Canton Zürich can apply for a G permit; the Swiss employer files it with that canton's migration office after the contract is signed. Border-zone rules and processing times vary by neighbouring country and canton, so confirm the specifics with Zürich's cantonal migration office or with HR during the application.
