About the job As an AI Outcome Customer Engineer, Forward Deployed Engineering, you will bridge the gap between pre-sales agreement shaping and post-sales execution. Entering the agreement cycle during the technical evaluation phase for AI accounts, you will ensure that solutions are shaped strictly through the lens of adoption, rapid activation, and viable delivery.

Aligned with our Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) organization, you will architect how these technical assets actually integrate into the customer's IT ecosystem (connectors, identity, data residency, legal constraints).

Responsibilities

Partner with Account teams and Practice Customer Engineers (CEs) during technical evaluation phases to assess project feasibility, shape proposals for long-term adoption, and validate FDE engagement requests.
Dive into code-level context to diagnose and resolve complex customer implementation issues, identify core product bugs, and test workarounds to clear execution roadblocks.
Serve as the definitive liaison to core Product and Engineering teams, troubleshooting systemic deployment blockers and translating real-world field feedback into actionable feature requests.
Steer implementation strategy through technical authority and architectural foresight while owning the technical reality of delivery alongside customer-facing teams.
