Forward Deployed Engineering is fast becoming one of the most important models for AI adoption in the enterprise, pioneered by Palantir and now being embraced across the industry. But what exactly is a Forward Deployed Engineer? My client’s definition: a customer-facing builder who can tackle complex problems hands-on, can scope and lead technical projects end-to-end, and uncovers new use cases with customers, ultimately driving both value and revenue. Having previously scaled one of the most successful infrastructure unicorns of the past decade, the CEO of a Kleiner Perkins / Lightspeed backed AI infrastructure company is now looking for an FDE leader to build and own this function as they scale rapidly. If you’re US-based, the above resonates with you, and you’re interested in building a market-leading FDE function alongside the CEO and founder, or know someone who might be, please drop me a DM to connect.

Pivotal Partners are busy as ever, exclusively building out arguably one of AI's/DevOps most exciting entrants to the space in some time. With a recently funded Series A ($60M) , backed by top-tier VCs (Sequoia & Accel), they’ve already landed 250+ customers in just six months of selling, with one of software's finest at the helm as CRO. We’re supporting their global expansion plans, with headcount expected to be 5x in FY26. Current Open Roles: EMEA - Enterprise AE – United Kingdom - Enterprise AE – Nordics - Enterprise AE – Benelux - Enterprise AE – DACH United States - Enterprise AE - New York - Mid-Market AE – New York - Sales Development Rep x3 – New York - Regional Director - East Coast With a very high bar, we're looking to speak to speak with the very best sellers for each region. DM Joe, James, Harry, to find out more.

Last week we posted about hiring a VP Sales for a Series B ($100M) AI CodeDev platform and now we’re on the hunt for their first on the ground EMEA Sales Engineer. After successfully scaling their entire US GTM presence and hiring some of the biggest names in the space, we’re officially touching down in EMEA to build the founding sales/pre-sales function from scratch. On track to clear $25M ARR in just their second year of selling with over $5M in EMEA pipeline already - opportunities like this don’t come around often. If you’ve built or scaled early stage pre-sales functions and want to shape how a category-leading product is taken to market - we’d love to speak with you. Reach out to James Cato directly for more info.
