About The Role:

As a monday.com Forward-Deployed Engineer, you will drive strategic transformation, AI

adoption, and product strategy, directly impacting revenue, roadmap, and customer trust.

You will partner deeply with one strategic customer, advising executives on AI-driven

operational change, and feeding insights back to the product team. This autonomous role

offers high visibility and the chance to define its future.

• Translate what you see in the field into clear, actionable signal for Product and Engineering

  — you're closest to the customer, so your input matters most.

• Strategic Transformation: Embed with C-level stakeholders to architect end-to-end AI solutions and scalable workflows that solve complex business pains

• Cross-Functional Leadership: Partner with Sales and CS as a technical authority to guide account strategy and translate customer needs into Product Requirement Documents (PRDs)
