We’re looking for a passionate Forward Deployed Data Engineer to join our team at STRATOS – someone eager to sit at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and real-world impact.As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with industry leaders to embed our platform deep into their operations – transforming strategic intent into live systems that drive measurable results. In today’s world, where the last mile of implementation creates the competitive moat, you’ll be the catalyst turning software into scale.About STRATOSOur founders, former business and tech executives, led a $1B division at a Fortune 500 industrial company. To effectively steer their business, they built a digital twin of their enterprise – the first Strategy Operating System: a platform that unified all internal and external data into a single platform to drive synchronized planning and execution across the global organization.Seeing the impact and market’s lack of such a system, they left their executive roles to launch STRATOS in 2022 with a bold mission: build the world’s first strategy operating system.Fast forward 3 years – STRATOS is a category-defining, rapidly growing startup, already helping close to a dozen global industrial companies outperform their competition. Our platform combines deep data integration, a powerful suite of best-in-class workflows, and cutting-edge generative AI.From commercial AI agents that can service the entire market, to embedded intelligence that supercharges lean teams — STRATOS enables customers to achieve 10x productivity and impact.Why Forward Deployed EngineeringWhile we have a scalable technology backbone, we believe that Forward Deployed Engineering is the future of differentiated B2B SaaS in the GenAI age. Rather than shipping static tools, we partner closely with customers to deliver dynamic, tailored solutions where value is created in the implementation layer – not just the codebase.Tasks
