Forward Deployed Engineer Iv, Genai, Google Cloud

Google Google · Big Tech · São Paulo, State of São Paulo, Brazil

This role involves leading the development and deployment of AI applications, specifically agentic solutions, within customer environments on Google Cloud. The engineer will bridge the gap between AI products and production systems, focusing on integration, data readiness, and state management. Responsibilities include architecting and coding connective tissue, building evaluation pipelines and observability frameworks, and acting as a feedback loop for product development. The role requires significant experience in shipping production-grade AI solutions and Python, with a preference for experience in multi-agent systems and LLM-native metrics.

What you'd actually do

  1. Lead the "Discovery-to-Deployment" journey, serving as the lead developer for AI applications and transitioning from rapid prototypes to production-grade agentic workflows (e.g., multi-agent systems and model context protocol (MCP) servers) that drive measurable Return on Investment (ROI).
  2. Bridge the enterprise gap by architecting and coding the "connective tissue" between Google’s AI products and customer's live infrastructure, including APIs, legacy data silos, and security perimeters.
  3. Engineer for production excellence, building high-performance evaluation pipelines and observability frameworks to ensure agentic systems meet rigorous requirements for accuracy, safety, and latency.
  4. Act as a product catalyst, identifying repeatable field patterns and technical "friction points" in Google’s AI stack and converting them into reusable modules or product feature requests for the Engineering teams.
  5. Drive regional leadership and upskilling by mentoring talent, co-building with customer teams, and influencing cross-functional strategies to uplevel organizational technical capabilities.
