By no means am I an expert on Garlean lore, but it seems to me there's a number of ways a magitek engineer could end up an amnesiac (a classic FF trope, that) in Eorzea; the Empire was established in Ala Mhigo and had several fortresses on the continent.
Magitek is powered by concentrated Aether "acquired" from the planet(ceruleum), amd it's known to be unstable. That makes an accident entirely possible, and since some people are known to have bad reactions to Aether, you've got the setup for your story right there. I would think you also have more mundane options, such as a scout airship crash.
Also, the Garlean military is super wicked, so your character might have some dark flashbacks and a dark history. You have the option of turning the "darkness dial" anywhere from zero all the way to 11.
