As a ForwardDeployedEngineer(FDE), you will operate at the intersection of executiveproblemframing,rapidengineering,andscalablearchitecture. You will engage directly with client CXOs and ssseni or leaders to identifyahighvaluewedge, build a workingproofinweeks, and translate that into a clear path toward MVP and scaled rollout on  or nay hyper-scaler platforms.

You will be embedded in deals and client journeys—shipping real agentic systems, not slides.

KeyResponsibilities 

1)Executive-facingdiscovery&valueshaping

• Partner with Sales, Client Partners, and  leaders to run CXO-levelworkingsessions that translate business pain into an OutcomeThesis (KPI tree, baseline, uplift hypothesis, operating constraints).
• Identify the right“thin-slice”wedge for a rapid Proof of Value (PoV): high signal, measurable, low dependency, enterprise-relevant.
• Communicate trade-offs clearly: what to automate vs assist, where human-in-the-loop is required, and what “safe scale” entails.

2)RapidProofofValueengineering

• Build a rapid PoV that demonstrates businessimpact+technicalfeasibility trustworthiness
• Implement agent workflowswith tooluse, integration to enterprise systems, and lightweight UI/experience for stakeholder clarity.
• Create initial evaluationharness (task success, accuracy, policy compliance, tool-call success, latency/cost) and capture baseline vs PoV lift.

3)Agenticblueprint&path-to-scalehandoff

• Produce a scalable AgenticBlueprint: agent roles, orchestration patterns, tools/APIs, data/knowledge strategy, guardrails, observability, and HIL escalation.
• Define MVP backlog and architecture decisions: identity/access, audit, logging, fallback design, policy boundaries, and deployment model.
• Hand off cleanly to delivery teams (MVP squads / pods) with a production-ready plan.

4)Solutionarchitecture+clientecosystem

• Design solutions using constructsorhyperscalerAgenticAIfoundations (Foundry, knowledge fabric/RAG patterns, agent orchestration, governance, observability/AgentOps
• Deploy across hyperscalers (AWS/Azure/GCP) and/or client environments; integrate with enterprise apps (e.g., ServiceNow, Salesforce, SAP, Microsoft stack).
• Ensure alignment with enterprise security, privacy, and compliance requirements.

5)Dealacceleration&differentiation

• Serve as a technical “closer” in competitive pursuits: demos, workshops, architecture deep dives, and technical validation.
• Create reusable accelerators: prompt packs, workflow templates, connectors, eval suites, reference architectures—so future PoVs become faster and repeatable.
