Responsibilities

• Lead, coach, and grow the Forward Deployed Engineering team from 3 FDEs today to 7–8 by H1 ‘26 , setting clear standards for technical excellence, execution rigor, and customer impact.
• Stay closely involved in active customer engagements and strategic initiatives, providing technical guidance, solution direction, and senior-level support where needed.
• Drive strong AI Agents go-to-market execution by embedding disciplined operating practices across the team, including pipeline hygiene, forecasting accuracy, and effective collaboration with Sales, AM, SE, Partners, and CEs.
• Pilot the team using data-backed operating models, defining and tracking clear input and output KPIs to assess performance, drive accountability, and accelerate AI Agent adoption (e.g., activity metrics, time-to-value, deployment quality, usage and revenue impact).
• Maintain deep technical credibility by staying close to the product and real-world use cases — comfortable coding in at least one language and highly fluent with APIs, integrations, and modern system architectures.
• Guide the design and delivery of scalable AI Agent deployments, including integrations with CRMs, help desks, and System-of-Truth platforms.
• Build and evolve playbooks, reference architectures, and deployment frameworks that enable repeatable, high-quality execution as the team scales.
• Lead cross-functional programs focused on AI Agents success, coordinating efforts across Product, Engineering, Marketing, Support, and GTM teams.

• Drive internal enablement and upskilling across GTM teams, ensuring Aircall Voice Agent is clearly understood, well-positioned, and effectively adopted.

Requirements

• Demonstrated ability to lead execution in complex, cross-functional environments while staying close to the field.
• Experience working within overlay or specialist GTM models, with strong understanding of sales cycles, forecasting, and execution best practices.
