Job Description

About the Role

As a Forward Deployed AI Engineer, you’ll work directly with enterprise customers to deliver custom, production-ready AI solutions that solve real-world problems.

What You’ll Do

• Partner with enterprise customers to scope and implement AI Agent use cases across complex workflows
• Integrate IFS Loops platform with customer systems
• Tune agent behavior and logic to deliver measurable outcomes (e.g., lower costs, increase in efficiency, fewer errors)
• Troubleshoot deployments and iterate quickly to ensure performance, accuracy, and user adoption
• Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and Customer Success to feed customer insights into the roadmap
• Document technical decisions and hand off stable deployments to customer engineering or support teams
