About the Role Customer impact from day one. Strategic clarity and Execution that sticks.
Salesforce is hiring Deployment Strategists - Strategic Builders who are customer-facing advisors, who define AI strategy, shape agentic solutions, and drive measurable adoption for enterprise customers. You'll work as part of a delivery team alongside Forward Deployed Engineers, translating complex business challenges into agentic AI deployments that go live and generate real value. Engagements are focused and time-bound - typically 12 weeks or less - and may span a single strategic account or multiple customers simultaneously. Your impact isn't just getting to deployment. It ensures customers realise lasting, scalable value from the solutions your team builds.
