ENTERPRISE Field Deployment Engineers

Your infrastructure. Our engineers.
On-site.

SpinDynamics FDEs are senior systems engineers who embed with your team to architect, deploy, and optimize your inference infrastructure — on-prem, air-gapped, or hybrid.

Overview

What is an FDE?

A Field Deployment Engineer is a dedicated, senior infrastructure engineer assigned to your account for the duration of your deployment.

Not support. Embedded infrastructure architects.

FDEs are not reactive support engineers waiting for tickets. They are proactive, staff-level systems engineers who sit alongside your platform team and operate as an extension of your organization.

  • Dedicated senior engineers assigned 1:1 to your account
  • On-site, remote, or hybrid engagement models available
  • Cleared personnel available for defense and government deployments
  • Engaged through deployment and ongoing optimization — not just install-and-leave
  • Deep expertise in GPU clusters, network segmentation, and RL policy tuning

Your FDE knows the SpinDynamics platform inside and out. They have shipped dozens of production deployments across financial services, healthcare, defense, and large-scale enterprise environments.

Think of an FDE as a staff-level infrastructure engineer who already knows SpinDynamics inside and out — embedded with your team from day one.

Process

The FDE Engagement Model

Every FDE engagement follows a structured, four-phase methodology designed to minimize time-to-production and maximize long-term value.

01

Discovery

Your FDE conducts a deep technical assessment of your inference infrastructure, workload patterns, compliance requirements, and performance targets.

02

Architecture

Custom deployment architecture designed for your specific constraints — on-prem topology, network segmentation, GPU allocation, and failover strategy.

03

Deployment

Hands-on-keyboard deployment. Your FDE installs, configures, and validates every component of the SpinDynamics mesh in your environment.

04

Optimization

Continuous tuning of RL routing policies, autoscaling parameters, and cost allocation. Your FDE stays engaged until your team is fully self-sufficient.

Capabilities

FDE Capabilities

Every FDE brings deep, hands-on expertise across the full SpinDynamics platform and modern inference infrastructure.

Air-Gapped Installation

Full SpinDynamics platform deployment in environments with zero external connectivity. Offline model registries, local telemetry, and hardened security baselines.

GPU Cluster Optimization

Multi-node GPU topology mapping, NCCL tuning, memory-aware scheduling, and inference-specific kernel optimization for maximum throughput per dollar.

RL Policy Customization

Custom reward functions, constraint tuning, and policy training tailored to your specific latency, cost, and compliance objectives across all deployment targets.

Compliance & Audit Support

End-to-end compliance documentation. Your FDE prepares audit artifacts, architecture diagrams, and data-flow documentation for your compliance team.

Network Architecture Design

VLAN segmentation, service mesh configuration, load balancer topology, and east-west traffic optimization for low-latency inference across your network.

Knowledge Transfer & Training

Structured enablement sessions, runbook creation, and hands-on training for your platform and SRE teams. Your FDE ensures your team can operate independently.

Use Cases

Who uses FDEs?

FDE engagements are designed for organizations deploying inference infrastructure in complex, high-stakes environments.

FINANCIAL SERVICES

Tier-1 Banks Deploying On-Prem Inference

Trading desks and risk platforms that require deterministic latency, full data sovereignty, and audit-ready infrastructure. FDEs handle network segmentation, GPU allocation, and regulatory documentation.

HEALTHCARE

Healthcare Networks with HIPAA Air-Gap Requirements

Hospital systems and clinical AI platforms that must process patient data entirely on-premises. FDEs deploy air-gapped SpinDynamics clusters with zero external data egress.

DEFENSE & GOV

Defense Contractors Requiring Cleared Personnel

Programs requiring TS/SCI-eligible engineers for classified inference workloads. FDEs hold relevant clearances and operate within SCIF and accredited environments.

GLOBAL ENTERPRISE

Multi-Region Hybrid Deployments

Global organizations running inference across cloud, edge, and on-prem simultaneously. FDEs architect unified control planes that span jurisdictions while enforcing data residency requirements.
