Is it possible to purchase Guardian Tech (say from a Fleet Carrier) rather that having to go through the laborious process of earning them?

no :/
Although it varies from person to person, access to guardian technology is easier than normal ship engineering.
But as I said: It depends on the person.

So, if I go through the process of getting the Guardian FSD, it is unlocked permanently or do I have to do the grind for each one I want?
It's unlocked permanently.
And it's not an FSD, it's an FSD booster. It goes in an optional slot. So don't look for it in outfitting where the FSD's would be
Ah, thanks Codger. I didn't know that.
All the older stuff must be unlocked once at a tech broker and then can be purchased in any quantity in outfitting. There has been newer pre-engineered stuff recently (in the last... two years?) that is a per-unit-unlock, i.e. each unit costs the listed materials, and after unlock one (!) unit is placed in storage. The ones I remember are the pre-engineered FSD and Surface Scanner, as well as the Salvation weapons. There are other pre-engineered modules that are not obtainable at present and were only available as CG rewards (Class 3/4/6 power plants, double engineered warrant scanner, pre-engineered heatsinks, probably more - those I remember).
Try not to get confused

True, but all the pre-engineered stuff is purely Human technology not Guardian.All the older stuff must be unlocked once at a tech broker and then can be purchased in any quantity in outfitting.

of course. Still a source of possible confusion
