Scale is accelerating the development of AI across the world's most important organizations. The Forward Deployed PM is the person who makes enterprise deployments succeed from the product side — embedded with customers, shaping real production outcomes, and translating messy operational reality into high-signal input for the core platform.
This is not a roadmap PM, a CSM, or a solutions engineer. The FDPM owns product outcomes inside a portfolio of enterprise accounts: earning deep trust with senior customer stakeholders, driving deployments to production, identifying where the product is the bottleneck vs. execution, and feeding durable, specific signal back to the platform team. The best FDPMs have shipped products into large organizations and can tell the difference between a customer's stated request, their actual problem, and what the platform should do.
At Scale, our mission is to develop reliable AI systems for the world's most important decisions. Our products provide the high-quality data and full-stack technologies that power the world's leading models, and help enterprises and governments build, deploy, and oversee AI applications that deliver real impact. We work closely with industry leaders like Meta, Ernst & Young, Mayo Clinic, Time Inc., the Government of Qatar, and U.S. government agencies including the Army and Air Force. We are expanding our team to accelerate the development of AI applications.
Задачи
Own product outcomes for our highest impact enterprise accounts. You are the accountable PM for product delivery and customer value
Build trusted advisory relationships with VP/C-level buyers and senior technical leads
Become the reliable escalation point on the Scale side before issues surface externally
Drive deployments from contract to production
You have done this before for large organizations
You know what 'production-ready' actually means and you close the gap
Translate real customer workflows, friction, and priorities into high-signal product input for core platform teams
Not requirements docs — specific, evidence-backed product perspective with tradeoffs articulated
Distinguish where the product is the constraint from where execution, integration, or change management is
Drive each type of blocker to resolution through the right channel
Partner closely with FDEs so the account runs as a coordinated team, not a set of parallel workstreams
Identify and develop expansion opportunities grounded in demonstrated customer value
Represent customer reality to platform and leadership with enough credibility that it changes decisions
Требования
Core Competencies
Enterprise deployment ownership: has driven AI/ML or complex software products from contract to production at scale, with real integration, real security constraints, real change management
Product judgment in the field: translates customer reality into product direction, not just feature requests
can say no credibly and explain why
Customer trust-building: earns and maintains trust with demanding senior stakeholders over multi-quarter engagements
manages conflict without eroding the relationship
Technical translation: bridges the gap between customer engineering teams and Scale platform engineers
does not relay messages, adds interpretation
Operating in ambiguity: creates structure where there is none
makes decisions with incomplete information
does not wait for fully defined requirements
Clear, precise communication: adjusts for audience (exec vs. engineer vs. PM)
writes and speaks at the right level of detail
does not over-explain or under-explain
6+ years in product management, technical program management, or a customer-facing product ownership role
Demonstrated record of shipping products or platform capabilities into large organizations — not pilots or proofs-of-concept
You can name the customer, the scale, the integration, and what production actually looked like
Extreme ownership and follow-through: closes loops without reminders, drives outcomes across teams without formal authority, holds self and others to commitments
Comfortable operating with senior customer stakeholders (VP/C-level) and senior engineers simultaneously
credible presence in high-stakes rooms on both sides
Strong judgment under pressure: makes good calls quickly with incomplete information, knows when to escalate vs. resolve, does not generate thrash
Technical fluency sufficient to hold a real conversation with a platform engineer about architectural tradeoffs — not deep coding, but genuine comprehension of how systems work in production
Будет плюсом
Direct experience with AI/ML platform products — data labeling, RLHF, fine-tuning workflows, or model evaluation pipelines
Experience in a startup or early-stage environment where process didn't exist and had to be created
Prior forward-deployed or embedded role (consulting, field PM, solutions engineering with ownership)
