Forward Deployed Engineer
Archera, Seattle, Washington, United States, Québec, Quebec, Canada, New York +3
The role
As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you sit where Archera's platform meets the field. This is an engineering role: you will write code, build integrations against partner and hyperscaler APIs, and own what you ship. You will also be the most technical person in the room with a distributor's engineering team, an AWS or Microsoft field counterpart, or a customer's Director of Cloud — explaining what Archera does at a deeper technical level, how other customers have successfully used Archera, and why the numbers hold. Both halves are the job.
You will report to the Senior Director of Field Engineering & GTM Enablement and work across the full deal cycle: technical discovery and commitment modeling on an enterprise pursuit one week, integration delivery or a production escalation the next. You will partner closely with Technical Account Management, Partner Development, Alliances, Marketing, Product, and Engineering. Commitment purchases and exchanges stay with Platform Operations — you set and validate the strategy.
Long-term hardening and the roadmap stay with Product and Engineering — you incubate, they productize. This role is remote within the United States, with light travel.
