Deployment Strategist

• Solution Launch & Landing: 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. Own production readiness across data quality, testing, security, performance, and operations. Work with the team to diagnose issues and drive them to resolution.

• Strategic Handoff & Growth: Scope the ongoing maintenance plan, create customer documentation/training, and leverage your trusted advisor status to identify the next high-value FDE engagement. Codify reusable solution patterns and bring field insights back to Product and Engineering.

What we look for

• Executive Presence & Communication: You are a trusted advisor with strong executive presence and excellent communication skills. You are confident and humble, can build rapport quickly, and can help senior stakeholders make difficult decisions.

• Product Judgment & Delivery: You can define what to build and why, write strong product requirements, prioritize engineering work, manage scope, and lead complex agile software projects from an ambiguous problem to a measurable outcome.

• Technical Fluency & Architecture Judgment: You understand modern data and AI architectures, including cloud platforms, data pipelines, data models, distributed systems, APIs, security and governance, machine learning, and generative AI application patterns. You can lead architecture discussions, evaluate trade-offs, and pressure-test technical decisions.

• Hands-on Technical Ability: You are proficient in at least one language such as Python, Java, or SQL. You can explore data, work in notebooks, read and review code and pipelines, build or adapt prototypes, and contribute meaningfully to troubleshooting.

• Relevant Experience: Typically 7+ years of experience delivering complex, customer-facing data, analytics, AI, or software engagements, or equivalent experience as a founder or technical builder. You have helped deliver data, machine learning, or generative AI systems into production and understand the integration, operational, and adoption challenges that appear in real environments. Experience in a high-growth technology company, forward-deployed organization, or leading consultancy is valuable. You enjoy working onsite with customers (often 25-50%, sometimes higher) to drive delivery.
