About the role
PromptQL is looking for Forward Deployed Engineers (FDE) to guide our customers through their entire technical journey with us. You are a strategic advisor, as well as a hands-on executor, that serves as the technical cornerstone throughout our customer's AI transformation journey. The role spans pre-sales technical validation, solution architecture, implementation, and ongoing customer success.
This kind of implementation work calls for hustle, drive, curiosity, and a strong sense of ownership. The best FDEs take initiative, think independently, and are always looking to learn. While familiarity with the AI industry can be helpful, the most important quality is a mindset that questions convention and seeks better solutions in an AI first environment.
