Powered by its patented Time-State Technology®, the Conviva® Operational Data Platform delivers real-time insights and automation that help leading enterprises grow, improve satisfaction, and build lasting trust. The Role We are hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) to operate at the critical boundary between customer ambition and product reality. The FDE is a customer-embedded product owner responsible for converting high-stakes Proofs of Concept (POCs) into structured, shippable product decisions under commercial time pressure.

You run an outcome-driven delivery loop that determines whether work becomes core product, a repeatable capability, or is explicitly sunset. This role ensures innovation strengthens the platform — rather than fragmenting it.

Documents (PRDs) Define sequencing, acceptance criteria, and measurable definitions of “done” Scope and prioritize within constrained POC timelines Define user workflows, metric definitions, dimensions, and success criteria Partner with Engineering in a build → deploy → measure → iterate cadence Identify and reconcile deltas between intended and observed system behavior Drive formal decisioning: productize, standardize, or stop Drive Structured Execution Prioritize scope in partnership with Engineering Unblock technical and product decisions Maintain alignment between commercial expectations and engineering delivery Protect product integrity while operating under time pressure Apply Analytics Insight Rigor Ensure metrics and instrumentation accurately reflect customer intent Validate that data models represent what stakeholders believe they represent Use quantitative and qualitative evidence to drive product decisions Translate complex system behavior into clear, high-impact narratives for technical and executive audiences Tell compelling, data-driven stories that align stakeholders around outcomes Risk Mitigation Systems Thinking FDEs safeguard Conviva against common failure modes in customer-driven innovation: Drift between Sales expectations and Engineering delivery Unbounded bespoke work without a path to productization Ambiguous or misaligned measurement definitions Core engineering bottlenecks created by configuration complexity You act as the control mechanism that keeps delivery disciplined, measurable, and scalable.
