## The job description from Qualytics

Posted by Qualytics on Aug 24, 2026

### About Qualytics

At **Qualytics**, we empower data teams to proactively identify and resolve data quality issues—**including the ones they didn’t know they had.** Our platform goes beyond surface-level checks to assess data **row by row**, catching silent errors, unexpected changes, and anomalies before they cause real-world consequences.

We work with some of the most forward-thinking organizations in the world—enterprises where **data quality directly impacts performance, compliance, and strategic decisions**. Whether it’s financial reporting, healthcare operations, or AI model integrity, **bad data can quietly break big things—and we help ensure it doesn’t.**

Joining Qualytics means collaborating with top-tier data professionals tackling high-stakes, deeply complex challenges. If you care about trust, rigor, and solving foundational problems that power how the world works—let's talk.

### Role Overview

As a **Senior Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE)** at Qualytics, you’ll be a strategic partner and trusted advisor to **large, data-intensive organizations**—the kinds where even small data quality issues can cause massive downstream impacts (and not in a good way).

You’ll own post-sale relationships and be responsible for delivering business value, ensuring renewal, and influencing growth across your portfolio. This is a **relationship-driven, outcomes-oriented** role. You’ll work closely with Sales, Product, and Engineering—but your focus will be on **making sure customers get meaningful results, grow with us, and trust their data**.

You’ll also play a critical role in the **pre-sales process**, working with our Solutions Engineering and Sales teams to help prospects connect business needs to our platform’s capabilities.

We are a startup. If you’re looking for fully-baked onboarding, gold-standard benefits, or total process clarity—**we’re probably not the best fit**. But if you thrive on ownership, flexibility, and solving problems that actually matter, you’ll feel right at home.

### What You’ll Do

- **Own the full customer lifecycle**—onboarding, enablement, engagement, retention, and expansion.
- Serve as the **strategic point of contact** for a portfolio of enterprise customers.
- Lead **Customer Objective Reviews (CORs)** to align stakeholders on goals, metrics, and measurable outcomes.
- Partner with Sales to identify opportunities and **drive renewals and expansion through demonstrated value**.
- Support pre-sales and POC efforts by **mapping customer business needs to product capabilities**—without committing to roadmap features or timelines.
- Act as the **voice of the customer internally**, influencing Product and Engineering with structured, actionable feedback.

### What You Need to Succeed

### Must-Have Skills

- 5+ years in a strategic, customer-facing role such as Customer Success, Forward Deployed Engineering, Strategic Account Management, or Client Partner (preferably in B2B SaaS).
- Experience managing **complex enterprise relationships**, ideally including Fortune 500 organizations.
- Demonstrated ability to build executive relationships, align on business value, and maintain customer health over time.
- **Exceptional communication skills** — and this is not filler. You’ll need to **translate broad business objectives into actionable technical conversations**, and just as importantly, **explain how technical features and capabilities support strategic goals**. Whether you're engaging executives, analysts, data engineers, or business stakeholders, you should bring clarity, confidence, and credibility.
- Comfortable working cross-functionally across Sales, Product, and Engineering—especially in fast-moving environments.
- A strong **bias toward ownership and action**—you don’t wait for a playbook; you help build it.

### Nice to Have

- Familiarity with modern data platforms (e.g., Snowflake, Databricks, dbt, etc.)
- SQL proficiency or conceptual comfort with data profiling and quality principles
- Experience with data quality, data governance, or observability platforms
- Past support of technical POCs or evaluations alongside Sales or Solutions Engineering
- Experience working with Product and Engineering in a feedback-driven environment

### Who You Are

- **Strategic** – You take a business-first approach: aligning customer success with company goals, revenue impact, and long-term partnership.
- **Executive-Ready** – You hold your own with senior stakeholders and communicate clearly under pressure.
- **Collaborative** – You work well across functions, advocate for your customers, and get things done.
- **Resilient** – You thrive in ambiguity, adapt fast, and recover quickly when plans change.
- **Value-Driven** – You can connect platform capabilities to real-world impact—and help others see it too.

### Startup Reality Check

We’re early-stage. That means:

- Our documentation and tooling are improving - but not perfect (yet).
- Priorities can change and decisions are made quickly - we move fast and fix things.
- You’ll wear multiple hats and collaborate directly with founders and engineers.
- You’ll help shape how we scale, not just follow a blueprint.

If you’re energized by that kind of challenge, you’re exactly who we’re looking for.
