About the Role
Salesforce is seeking Forward Deployed Engineers—experienced Technical Builders who design, build, and deploy agentic AI solutions directly inside enterprise customer environments. You will work as part of a delivery team, partnering closely with a Deployment Strategist to co-build solutions that go live in production environments from day one. Engagements range from a single large strategic customer to multiple accounts simultaneously, with a focus on real code, real environments, and measurable business impact. This role involves configuration, customization, and full-stack deployment of solutions customers depend on.

As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you will ship real customer solutions supported by best-in-class AI tools embedded into your workflow. You will collaborate with Senior Forward Deployed Engineers and Deployment Strategists, owning technical components end-to-end and benefiting from structured mentorship. You will work on cutting-edge agentic AI platform capabilities and contribute field insights directly to product teams.

Your responsibilities include developing AI agents and experiences that take real actions for real organizations, designing agent intelligence using prompts, reasoning, tool calls, and integrations, building and integrating data pipelines on platforms such as Salesforce Data 360, Snowflake, and Databricks, and maintaining performance dashboards and KPI reporting. You will contribute to proofs-of-concept and MVPs, co-build alongside customers and partners, and provide feedback to improve the platform.

This role requires approximately 25% travel to work directly alongside customers. Join Salesforce to help redefine what’s possible for AI and the world.
