The Rise of the Internal FDE
The Forward Deployed Engineer was the role of the last twelve months: engineers sitting with customers, finding the problem first hand, building the thing that fixes it. The same pattern is now showing up inside companies — AI engineers whose customers are their own colleagues, working across finance, sales, operations and support to find the repetitive work and build the agents that take it over. An evening of panel discussion with the people already doing it, hosted by StackOne in partnership with Aura Talks.

What we'll cover
Where an internal AI team creates real value, and which workflows aren't worth automating at all
What separates an internal AI product people actually use from a demo that never ships
How these teams get structured, who they report to, and how they pick what to build next
Balancing experimentation with governance once agents start taking real actions in production systems
