Job description
SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today, SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary and expanding consciousness to the stars.
SpaceXSI is building Super Intelligence to help humanity understand the universe. Our teams are building the full Super Intelligence stack: from our Colossus supercomputers, to Grok models, to our suite of applications, including Grok Bot, Grok Build, Grok Imagine, Grok Voice, and X. We're creating a powerful flywheel where more compute trains better models, better models power more useful products, and what we learn from people using those products shapes what we build next.
FORWARD DEPLOYED STRATEGIST
We're looking for a Forward Deployed Strategist to own our most strategic customer engagements—from initial workshop through delivery. Working in a pod with 1–2 FDEs, you'll partner with executive sponsors to identify high-value use cases, scope tightly focused projects, and stay accountable for outcomes. You'll remain hands-on at the configuration layer while translating technical builds into measurable business results and driving adoption—all while flywheeling valuable feedback into our product offerings.
This role requires technical credibility in agentic coding and LLMs, executive presence to earn boardroom trust, and the judgment to keep engagements scoped tight, delivered fast, and worth repeating.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Partner with executive sponsors to translate ambiguous business problems into concrete, time-boxed projects with clear ROI, validating technical feasibility through discovery and architecture reviews.
Own the configuration layer of the technical build—workflows, integrations, and platform tooling—partnering with FDEs on deeper production work while monitoring feasibility and adjusting scope as needed.
Serve as the primary executive point of contact, selling the vision and plan to C-suite stakeholders and translating between business outcomes and technical implementation.
Identify expansion opportunities during delivery and escalate product gaps and customer pain to Product and Engineering to shape the roadmap.
Build reusable playbooks that strengthen the broader FDE organization over time.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
6+ years in Solutions Architecture, Deployment Strategy, technical consulting, or Engagement Manager roles owning scoping and delivery with technical teams on AI-production workflows.
Strong understanding of agentic coding and LLMs in production: how they behave, where they fail, and what resilient workflows look like.
Shipped AI-native workflows past the prototype stage and can distinguish real production constraints from nice-to-haves.
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE
Hands-on comfort with SpaceXSI workflows, integrations, and platform config; able to read Python/JS-TS to partner effectively with FDEs.
Domain depth in FSI, insurance, telecom, high-tech, healthcare/life sciences, or semiconductor.
Experience building out agentic systems and model training.
Ex-founder experience is a strong plus

The annual compensation range for this role is listed below.
Annual Salary:
$215,000 - $300,000 USD
Your actual level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, and experience.
