Forward Deployed: A curated night for FDE's
Meet NYC’s top forward deployed engineers and the AI teams building the future with them.
We are your hosts: Peri connects exceptional talent with the companies building what’s next. Doing this in person is core to our mission.
Here’s why to come: You might be looking, thinking about looking or happy where you are. Either way building a career is about constantly building your network and following the best companies. The majority of the event is curated but we are opening to a small number of people via open sign ups.
Here’s how it works: Founders and engineering leaders from the city’s top AI teams take the stage two at a time for a rapid-fire panel: quick pitches, sharp questions, no filler. The lineup stays under wraps until Monday, November 16, when we’ll share it with confirmed guests.
After the panel, the evening opens up with an open bar, passed hors d’oeuvres, and a DJ set from our Head of Network, Ishaan Tuli [@ishlovesfish]. That’s when the real conversations happen. On the back of your name tag, we’ll hand-write the company we think you should meet, and if you’re interested, we’ll make the intro afterward.
The event is small on purpose. Every request is reviewed.
