Join a growing California-based company serving AI data centers and next-generation networks.
Work closely with customers and help deliver solutions that keep critical networks connected.
Support the infrastructure powering AI, cloud computing, telecom, and broadband connectivity.
We are hiring a Senior Application Engineer to be the technical bridge between our products and our customers. You will own pre-sales engineering, design-in support, proof-of-concept validation, and post-sales technical guidance across our target verticals. This is a high-visibility, customer-facing role.
What You Will Do
- Lead technical discovery calls, solution design workshops, and proof-of-concept deployments with hyperscale, data center, telecom, and enterprise customers.
- Develop and present compelling technical proposals, architecture diagrams, and product recommendations.
- Serve as the primary technical resource during the sales cycle — responding to RFPs/RFIs, running lab evaluations, and producing test reports.
- Provide hands-on support for MPO/MTP high-density cabling design, 400G/800G transceiver integration, and FTTH/5G network infrastructure deployments.
- Deliver technical training, product demonstrations, and application workshops for customers and channel partners.
- Capture field insights to influence product roadmap.
What You Bring
- 5+ years of application engineering, systems engineering, or technical sales engineering experience in fiber optics or optical networking.
- Deep hands-on expertise with MPO/MTP connectors, SFP/QSFP/OSFP transceivers, patch panels, and test instruments (OTDR, optical power meters, OLTS).
- Solid understanding of data center networking architectures (spine-leaf, AI/ML fabric) and 400G/800G interconnects.
- Strong communicator — able to translate complex technical concepts for both engineering and executive audiences.
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Photonics, Optical Engineering, or equivalent.
Nice to Have
- Experience with hyperscaler or co-location data center customers (AWS, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Equinix).
- CFOT, RCDD, or equivalent certification.
Why FOT Dynamics
- Work on products at the center of the AI infrastructure build-out.
- Small, focused team — your wins translate directly to company growth.
- Competitive compensation and clear path to senior technical leadership.
- California-based with hybrid flexibility.
