About this role

ThoughtSpot is building the Agentic Analytics Platform — a governed, AI-native infrastructure that lets anyone ask a question in plain language and get a trusted, traceable answer, powered by Spotter and our semantic layer. Our platform is only as good as its ability to work inside the messy reality of a customer's stack: legacy warehouses, custom auth, bespoke data models, and workflows nobody wrote down. That's the gap this team closes.

We're building a new Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) function inside Engineering, and we're looking for a founding Senior MTS to help shape it. As an FDE at ThoughtSpot, you'll embed directly with our most strategic customers to design, build, and ship agentic analytics solutions on top of Spotter — turning a "great demo" into a production system a customer's team actually relies on. You'll operate like a hands-on technical lead for each engagement: part software engineer, part solutions architect, part product partner, with a direct line back into our core roadmap.


This is not a pre-sales or support role. FDEs write production code, own outcomes, and stay until the system works.
