Forward Deployed Engineers for AI Automation
A full-time in-house AI engineer costs $15K to $25K/month and takes 3 to 6 months to hire. A forward deployed engineer (FDE) from Adaptive Teams starts in days at $4K to $6K/month.
Your FDE builds automations, connects your tools and deploys AI agents, then keeps improving them every month.
