About the role
At Shakudo, we’re building the world’s first operating system for data and AI. We use the term “operating system” in the truest sense: just like iOS, Windows, or Linux, Shakudo’s end-to-end OS provides ever-evolving, fully automated, best-in-class open-source components tailored to each business’s unique needs.
We are seeking a senior Forward Deployed Engineer to join our Platform team and work directly with strategic customers to turn business problems into production AI and data systems. This is a highly technical, customer-facing role for someone who can move between customer conversations, system design, data engineering, AI application development, Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, and production support.
In this role, you will own the path from discovery to production: understanding the customer’s workflows and data, designing the solution, building and deploying it on Shakudo, and helping the customer adopt it in real operations. This is an outcome-based engineering role. A successful engagement is not a demo, a prototype, or an installation. It is a live, governed, adopted workflow that improves how the customer operates and is tied to a clear business result.
