Role Overview

The Forward Deployment Engineer is a hands-on AI integrator who works close to customer teams, operators, and internal engineering to identify high-value workflow opportunities, build practical agentic AI solutions, and convert successful field experiments into reusable deployment patterns.

What You'll Do

  • Create reusable workflow patterns, templates, implementation notes, and lightweight operational playbooks
  • Drive hands-on adoption and enable customer teams on approved AI tools and operating patterns
  • Track adoption metrics, operational KPIs, hours saved, quality improvements, and failure modes
  • Share field learnings with the broader engineering team so one deployment improves the next
What We're Looking For
  • Experience building or integrating AI, automation, data, cloud, or operational workflow systems
  • Strong systems thinking and ability to find leverage inside messy real-world processes
  • Comfort working directly with customer teams, operators, and technical stakeholders
  • Ability to prototype quickly while keeping security, governance, and reliability in view
  • Production-oriented mindset across evaluation, monitoring, failure handling, and adoption
  • Clear written communication and ability to turn field work into reusable playbooks
  • Bonus:
    Experience with LLMs, RAG, agentic systems, AWS AI services, Python tooling, or operational analytics
