US H-1B: cap-subject employers enter a lottery weighted by wage level — Level I gets 1 entry, Level IV gets 4 (DHS projected selection odds ≈15% at Level I to ≈61% at Level IV). Universities and non-profit research employers are cap-exempt. The $100,000 fee for new petitions from abroad is currently blocked by a court order (appeal pending).

About the role
Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering. Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code. ABOUT THE ROLE Forward Deployed Engineers embed directly with customer engineering teams to ship production-grade Cursor workflows that measurably improve how they build software. You’ll figure out what’s actually slowing a team down, design a practical solution, and own it end-to-end, from first discovery call through launch, iteration, and post-production support. This is not a demo role. You are responsible for systems that work in the real world. WHAT YOU’LL DO - Lead discovery with customer engineers to identify the real bottleneck and define clear success metrics - Design and build Cursor-powered workflows (e.g., large-scale refactors, migrations, PR review loops, incident → fix pipelines, spec → implementation systems) - Ship a fast first version in days, then harden it into something reliable over weeks with proper rollout plans, monitoring, and iteration based on real usage - Own production quality: tracing, evals, metrics, debugging model behavior, latency/cost tradeoffs, and failure modes - Work directly with Staff+/Platform/Eng leaders — going deep in code while also communicating clearly about tradeoffs and results - Turn what you build into reusable patterns and push improvements back into the core Cursor product YOU MAY BE A FIT IF - You have 5+ years of experience with software development and coding in Python, Javascript/Typescript - Experience includes 2+ years in a customer-facing role, leading discovery conversations and being accountable for customer outcomes - You thrive in ambiguity and can turn fuzzy problems into clear scopes and shipped systems - You’ve built and owned AI-native workflows in production, not just prototypes, and have debugged real-world model failures - You build end-to-end - if it needs frontend, backend, infra, or prompt iteration, you’ll own it - You’ve handled production reliability before (metrics, alerts, safe rollouts, incident response)
