## Description

You will be part of the founding team of the Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) initiative, working closely with strategic customers to deliver high-value AI solutions.

As a Deployment Strategist, you will be the critical bridge between a customer's business problem and Databricks' technical solution, owning the technical and product direction of the engagement from initial discovery to production launch and adoption.

Responsibilities:

- Author the PRD, prioritise the engineering backlog, manage scope, and act as the primary hands-on QA tester.

- Drive the FDE build team through an agile delivery process, manage stakeholders from the C-suite to individual engineers, and unblock technical or organisational issues.

- Own the "Day 0" launch, manage the war room, and drive the solution from launch to full adoption by capturing user feedback, iterating, and proving the defined business value.

- Scope the ongoing maintenance plan, create customer documentation/training, and leverage your trusted advisor status to identify the next high-value FDE engagement.

Requirements:

- Executive presence and excellent communication skills.

- Strong product judgment and delivery skills.

- Technical fluency and architecture judgment, including modern data and AI architectures.

- Hands-on technical ability, proficient in at least one language such as Python, Java, or SQL.

- Typically 7+ years of experience delivering complex, customer-facing data, analytics, AI, or software engagements.
