Forward Deployed Engineer - Artificial Intelligence
About the role
Hiring: Forward Deployed Engineer - AI
Cotera is looking to hire a Forward Deployed Engineer out of our New York Office to work with our enterprise team to deploy AI agents. You will be working in Cotera day in/day out to solve problems at the cutting edge of AI. You’ll get exposed to tons of GTM and Operational business problems inside companies.
Ideally, these are your qualifications:
- You are early in your career: 1-3 years out of college (though more seasoned is also fine!!) and you’re looking to learn quickly.
- You use AI: You’re familiar with tools like Claude Code, Perplexity, CLI/MCP tools, workflows (Zapier/n8n)
- Curious and hungry: you might not know exactly what you want your career to look like 20 years from today, but you’re motivated to try different things to find out.
- You’re technically proficient - you don’t need to be an engineer, but you get like a 5x weighting if you’re using AI tools to code up things - you might not know how they work internally, but they’re working externally for you.
- You’re detail oriented - people describe you as a “perfectionist” and you have a high standard for the work that you put out there.
- You want to be a founder, and you want to learn the ins and outs of running a b2b business: building the house is the easy part now. You can do it from your phone, in a weekend. The hard part is getting people to pay attention, and that’s what you want reps at.
- You like talking to people: you’ll be speaking to a lot of customers, so you should be comfortable spending at least 3 hours a day on the phone.
Here’s what you’ll be doing:
- Working in Cotera daily. This is both to help customers, but also to help our product team
- Talking to customers and managing relationships: our customers expect a lot from us, and building and shipping agents quickly and communicating/training is useful
- Running trainings/webinars
- Writing AI thought pieces for our marketing site.
Salary - 120k-145k + Equity
