What This Role Is
We're seeking a lead to spearhead customer engagements and orchestrate our implementation of Liquid Foundation Models (LFMs). This strategic role will bridge the gap between customer needs and technical implementation; decoding customer challenges, architecting technical solutions, and leading our engineering team through flawless execution.
You're A Great Fit If
You have deep experience leading technical ML implementations with enterprise customers, including requirements gathering, solution design, and delivery management
You possess deep technical knowledge of foundation models with hands-on experience in customization, fine-tuning, and deployment strategies
You excel at distilling ambiguous customer problems into clear technical specifications that can be executed by implementation teams
You can effectively communicate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, serving as the primary technical liaison with customers
You have a proven track record of leading cross-functional teams to deliver complex ML solutions on time and to specification
What You'll Actually Do
Own end-to-end customer relationships from technical discovery through implementation and success validation
Translate customer use cases into detailed technical implementation plans for the Applied ML Engineering team
Conduct technical discovery sessions with customers to deeply understand their requirements, constraints, and success criteria
Build and maintain the technical roadmap for each customer engagement, identifying risks and dependencies early
Serve as the escalation point for complex technical challenges encountered during implementations
Collaborate with product and engineering teams to align customer needs with our product roadmap
Develop reusable implementation patterns and technical assets that accelerate future customer engagements
What You'll Gain
The opportunity to define how cutting-edge LFM technology transforms businesses across industries
Leadership experience building a high-performing technical implementation function from the ground up
Visibility across the entire customer lifecycle, from initial engagement through successful deployment
The satisfaction of seeing your technical vision translated into tangible customer outcomes that redefine what's possible with foundation models
This role requires someone who can thrive at the intersection of deep technical expertise and strategic leadership. You'll need to be comfortable making technical decisions with incomplete information, guiding teams through ambiguity, and being the definitive technical voice for our customers.
