Forward Deployed Engineer - AI Revenue Agents
Job description
Forward Deployed Engineer - AI Revenue Agents at Outreach.
About the role
You are responsible for the complete lifecycle of AI Revenue Agents inside customer sales motions. Your daily work involves designing buyer conversations, configuring workflows, and tuning models to fit real deals. You transform complex go-to-market requirements into working agent behaviors that operate behind the scenes to power every buyer conversation. You partner closely with sales teams to observe live interactions and extract patterns that improve automated outreach sequences. You act as the bridge between product strategy, engineering constraints, and revenue execution in the field. You ensure that every deployment is measurable, repeatable, and aligned with the broader revenue operations framework. You continuously iterate on agent logic based on performance signals and feedback from customer success teams.
