The FDE Table, Hosted by Plain
- WHO IT IS FOR: Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs) and technical leaders at AI companies managing enterprise customer implementations.
- WHAT IT IS ABOUT: A high-level peer exchange focused on the challenges of scaling FDE functions and managing enterprise tooling.
- FORMAT: An intimate, curated seated dinner and networking event.
Join Plain for The FDE Table, an exclusive gathering designed for those building and leading Forward Deployed Engineering functions within the AI sector. As AI companies rapidly scale their FDE teams, there are few opportunities for professionals in this role to connect and share the realities of the job.
This curated evening focuses on the candid conversations that don't happen in public forums. Discuss the friction of managing early enterprise customers and the struggle of coordinating workflows across Slack, Linear, and custom internal tooling. Come share your experiences and find solutions with a room full of peers who face the same operational hurdles.
The evening begins with drinks and networking, followed by a seated dinner with guided prompts to spark meaningful discussion. Space is strictly limited to ensure a high-quality, intimate environment for all attendees.
