Forward Deployed Engineer · Exa
Jakub Hojsan works on deploying web search in AI agents and production applications. He joined Exa as its first forward deployed engineer in 2025, helping customers integrate search through pre-sales, implementation, and ongoing support. His technical focus addresses a practical weakness in coding assistants: a model can understand a codebase yet lack the newer documentation, library behavior, or breaking changes needed to make a sound decision.
