Job description

from Rackspace careers

As a Forward Deployed Engineer at Rackspace Technology, you will be embedded directly with our most strategic enterprise customers to architect, build, and deploy high-impact AI solutions. This role combines deep technical engineering with business acumen, customer empathy, and end-to-end solution ownership. You become the technical bridge between Rackspace’s AI platform capabilities and the customer’s most pressing business challenges. You will own the full solution lifecycle from problem discovery and rapid prototyping through production deployment and continuous optimization while feeding field insights back to our product and platform engineering teams.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of engineering, strategy, and customer engagement and wants the autonomy and impact typically found at an AI startup, backed by the scale and resources of a global technology company.

Key Accountabilities:

    • Embed with strategic enterprise customers to rapidly diagnose critical business challenges, map data landscapes, and co-design AI solutions on-site.
    • Lead end-to-end solution design and delivery of agentic AI workflows, RAG pipelines, knowledge graphs, and real-time decision-making applications.
    • Drive rapid prototyping and POCs that demonstrate tangible business value within days to weeks.
    • Serve as the primary technical owner across the full project lifecycle: scoping, architecture, build, deployment, and post-launch optimization.
