Salesforce is seeking a Lead Forward Deployed Engineer to design, build, and deploy agentic AI solutions inside enterprise environments. You will lead a delivery pod—partnering with a Deployment Strategist to co-build production-ready solutions from day one.

You will mentor engineers, drive complex technical deliveries, and translate customer requirements into scalable AI capabilities that ship. This role involves hands-on engineering, customer collaboration, and travel up to 25%.

• Hands-on experience with LLMs and prompt engineering, APIs, and data modelling; able to lead technical conversations with customer architects and executives.

Aufgaben

• Lead the design and build of AI agents and experiences that take real actions for real organisations — owning complex technical components end-to-end from architecture choice through to deployed, validated, and observable in production, including agent intelligence design, prompts, reasoning, tool calls, and integration with customer systems.
• Build and integrate data pipelines on Salesforce Data Cloud, Snowflake, Databricks, and customer data platforms, and oversee agent performance dashboards and customer KPI reporting to track deployment health and business outcomes.
• Lead PoCs and MVPs that move from concept to deployable in days — co-building with customers and partners, sharing best practices, and enabling customer and partner teams as you go.
• Serve as a senior technical voice in your pod — surfacing platform gaps, edge cases, and field insights to product teams, mentoring junior engineers, and partnering with Deployment Strategist to translate complex customer business challenges into agentic solutions that actually ship.
