fieldguide - Senior Manager, Deployed Engineering

• 5+ years of leadership experience in forward deployed, deployment, solutions or customer engineering. That might mean FDE leadership at Palantir or a similar company, a Field CTO role, or leading technical work with large enterprise customers. • You still build. You've written production software recently and want to keep doing it. This role isn't a fit for someone looking for a manage-only role. • Experience leading or mentoring engineers, and excitement about building a team from an early stage. • Comfort in front of senior enterprise stakeholders, especially in regulated or complex environments. • Good judgment about building for one customer versus the platform, and the ability to push back on scope when it matters. • Excitement about bringing AI agents into high-stakes professional work. • Experience at a Big 4 firm (Deloitte, PwC, EY, KPMG) or a major consulting firm such as Accenture, McKinsey, BCG or Bain. • Knowledge of audit, accounting, risk or compliance. • Experience deploying LLM or agent-based systems in production.
