Mumbai: Nearly 58 per cent of engineers want to transition into forward-deployed engineer (FDE) roles, but nine in 10 lack awareness of a structured upskilling path, even as nearly 90 per cent of Indian enterprises expect demand for FDEs to grow by 2030, a report said on Thursday.
Nearly nine in ten Indian enterprises expect their need for FDEs to grow by 2030, with almost eight in ten MNCs already planning to hire FDEs within the next 12 months, edtech company Scaler said in 'India's FDE Opportunity' report.
