\n\tThe Forward Deployed Engineer<\/strong> (FDE) L2 \u2013 Enterprise Delivery program is a 28\u201330 hour training, delivered by Xebia, for engineers with 2\u20134 years of production experience or L1 graduates who are ready for enterprise-scale technical ownership and direct customer delivery.


The program builds the capability to connect large language models and agentic workflows safely into enterprise ERP, CRM and legacy backend systems, with production-grade operations, security and governance.

Classroom delivery is followed by Phases 1 and 2 of the Deployment Ramp, moving participants from technical ownership of integration modules to co-owned, client-facing POCs and pilots.<\/p>\t\t\t\t
