As an AI Outcome Customer Engineer, Forward Deployed Engineering, you work as an enterprise architect, technical debugger, engineering liaison and technical delivery manager.

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).
