Descrizione del lavoro

forgd is the consultancy partnering exclusively with Anthropic to help enterprises build

AI-native businesses. We start with engineering — helping organizations move from

individual developers using Claude Code to entire teams shipping together with AI-native

workflows — and expand into agentic solution delivery and broader business

transformation.

Our conviction is that engineers are uniquely positioned to lead this transformation. The

strongest mental model for designing, deploying, and governing AI agents in production

lives in software engineering. The teams that change how their organization builds

software are the same teams equipped to shepherd the rest of the business into this new

world.

We embed and co-build with customer teams. Cycles are short, delivery is iterative and

accountable to clear outcome goals.

About the Role

As an Applied AI Architect, you embed with enterprise customers and own the technical

work across the full customer journey — initial demos, short proof-of-value engagements,

and multi-week implementations. The work moves customers from interesting prototypes

Most engagements start in engineering. You'll work with customer engineering teams

adopting Claude Code and redesigning their SDLC — code review, requirements, testing,

documentation, and governance. From there, the work expands: co-building agentic

applications and modernizing legacy systems on the Claude developer platform, and

partnering with business stakeholders to deploy agents into core operations like sales,

customer service, and finance.

You're the expert in the room on how engineers work with Claude Code, what an agentic

application looks like in production, and what has to change in an organization to sustain

either. You build prototypes, ship code, run workshops, write specs, and make the calls

that move customers from demos to deployment.

Collaborate directly with Anthropic on customer engagements — joint working sessions,

early access to product changes, and a direct line to their product and engineering teams.

Responsibilities:

Enable

• Lead Claude Code Labs and customer workshops
• Take customer teams from beginner to power user across Claude Code, Claude for
• Work, Cowork, and the developer platform
• Codify deployment patterns and feed them back to forgd's methodology and
• Anthropic's product teams

Transform

Lead discovery into customer environments — engineering toolchains and

workflows, business operations, and organizational dynamics — and turn that into

clear technical plans

Advise on how AI-native development changes existing engineering practices:

issue management, branching, testing, code review, and security

Guide adoption programs that scale Claude across engineering organizations and

into business teams

Build

• Scope engagements: assumptions, risks, milestones, and dependencies
• Embed with customer teams to co-build agentic applications on the Claude
• Build technical artifacts — evaluation frameworks, MCP servers, sub-agents, and
• deployment configurations — tailored to the customer's stack

What Success Looks Like

• Customers move from proof-of-value to production
• Engineering teams measurably change how they ship software
• Customers become references
• Accounts expand on the strength of the work

You May Be a Good Fit If You Have

• 3–5 years in a customer-facing technical role — Solutions Architect, Sales
• Engineer, Forward Deployed Engineer, Technical Consultant — or in a hands-on
• engineering role as a Software Engineer or Product Engineer
• Software development experience in a high-scale startup or enterprise
• environment; you know what it takes to write, ship, and operate production code
• Production experience with LLMs — prompt engineering, agent design, and
• evaluation frameworks.
• Power user of Claude Code or equivalent AI coding assistants; you live in AI-native
• development yourself
• Familiarity with enterprise development toolchains, CI/CD, and modern SDLC
• practices, and cloud-native deployment on AWS, GCP, or Azure
• Communication skills that work across the room — individual contributors,
• engineering leadership, and business stakeholders
• High agency and comfort with ambiguity; you operate autonomously in customer environments

Nice to Have

• Background in professional services or consulting
• Track record leading developer productivity or developer experience at scale
• Vertical experience in financial services, healthcare, or other regulated industries
• Experience driving organizational change
