About the role
As a Senior Forward Deployed Engineer, AI, you will own end-to-end delivery for some of Komodo's most technically demanding customer engagements - from solution architecture through deployment inside a customer's cloud, data infrastructure, and compliance environment. This is a deeply technical engineering role with direct customer context. You will write production code, design cloud-native deployment patterns, build integrations, develop MCP servers that extend the Komodo platform into a customer's stack, and debug issues in environments you do not fully control. The Forward Deployed Engineering team operates with a clear principle: own your work end to end. You will be expected to translate customer requirements into scalable, product-adjacent solutions, communicate clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders, surface risks early, and make sound tradeoffs between speed and production rigor. This role is best suited for someone who enjoys ambiguity, takes initiative, and is energized by solving complex problems in close partnership with customers. You'll work on some of Komodo's most complex and visible deployments - and see your work run in production. In your first 90 days, you will have: Learned the Marmot platform end to end, including the agent loop, MCP Gateway integration surface, and deployment toolchain that allows FDE to stand up isolated customer environments independently. Shipped your first customer-facing deliverable, such as a new MCP server, Databricks/Delta Lake integration, or agentic workflow - and seen it run in a real customer environment. Built strong working relationships with Sales, Solutions Engineering, and Product partners, with a clear understanding of who owns what and where you create leverage. Mapped the technical gaps in your first customer deployment and proposed a concrete plan to close them. By the end of your first year, you will have: Led end-to-end delivery of at least one high-complexity customer deployment, standing up AI-native solutions inside a customer's own cloud environment and delivering outcomes with measurable business impact. Built and shipped production-grade agentic workflows and MCP servers that solve customer-specific problems. Established yourself as a trusted technical partner to senior customer stakeholders by leading architecture reviews, navigating compliance constraints, and helping convert pilots into broader programs. Contributed reusable deployment patterns to the FDE playbook, creating frameworks the team can rely on for future customer engagements. Participated in Komodo's architecture governance, influencing platform decisions based on what you have seen and built in the field. Partnered cross-functionally with Sales, Product, Data, and Core Engineering to close gaps and shape the roadmap. These are the essential job duties you will be responsible for ... Design, build, and deploy AI-native solutions inside customer environments, including MCP servers, agentic workflows, and custom integrations that adapt Komodo's platform to each customer's cloud infrastructure, systems, data contracts, and compliance requirements.
