Head of Systems Integrators
Fireworks AI
Role Description SIs are Fireworks' highest-leverage GTM channel and this function does not exist yet. The person in this role originates and structures the deals, builds the partners, makes them technically capable, and embeds Fireworks into how they sell. The weight is upstream: strategy and origination, not day-to-day partner management. What You Will Own: - Originate and Structure - Source and close first-of-a-kind commercial agreements with Tier-1 SIs - framework deals, global MoUs, joint offering structures - where no playbook exists. - Define the multi-practice value proposition; align SI executive and line-of-business leadership on why Fireworks and how joint delivery creates margin for both sides. - Navigate matrixed GSI org structures to secure internal mandates for dedicated practices or CoEs, aligning competing service lines on governance and delivery standards. - Define co-delivery swimlanes and market ownership to prevent channel conflict and protect delivery quality as the partner ecosystem scales. - Recruit and Develop - Identify and recruit Tier-1 SI partners with credible AI practices, client access in target verticals, and appetite to build a Fireworks capability. - Build conviction at every level - make the commercial and technical case from alliance desk to equity partner. - Connect Fireworks engineers, sales, and product to their counterparts at the partner; establish functional working relationships, not just an alliance desk. - Guide partners through standing up a Fireworks service offering: capability definition, staffing model, pricing, and GTM positioning. - Enable - Design and own FDE certification: inference, fine-tuning pipelines, production deployment - with a track covering SFT, RLHF, and model adaptation. - Build the operating model: how projects flow to partners, support tiers, escalation to the Fireworks technical bench, and commercial attribution. - Run the direct interface desk - standing technical bridge between partner delivery teams and Fireworks engineers for in-flight engagements. - Own model update continuity: when Fireworks ships, re-certify partners before delivery is disrupted. - Embed - Place Fireworks in SI practice playbooks and internal solution frameworks - the default inference layer when their AI practices architect for clients. - Produce joint innovation content with named Fireworks placement: reference architectures, solution briefs, and thought leadership under partner credentials. - Develop case studies with specific, attributable outcomes - latency, cost reduction, model quality - with named clients where possible. - Build at practice lead and delivery principal level across all active SI partners, not just alliance managers. Qualifications - 8-10 years across top-tier consulting, enterprise technology or AI/ML vendor roles, or senior SI alliance leadership - with direct exposure to how GSIs structure, sell, and deliver. - Track record closing non-standard strategic agreements: MoUs, framework deals, joint offering structures with major GSIs or consulting firms. - Working knowledge of how GSIs operate - practice formation, CoE funding, delivery authority, internal service line competition - from the inside or from working alongside them closely. - ML stack fluency sufficient to design and assess technical enablement: fine-tuning, inference, deployment pipelines. - Demonstrated 0-to-1 program or function builds; not inherited playbooks. - Operates at C-suite and equity partner level; measures success by pipeline originated and practice maturity, not activity. Requirements - Time inside the AI practice of a leading GSI or MBB firm (Bonus). - Hands-on post-training experience: SFT, RL, or RLHF in delivery or program management (Bonus). - Existing relationships at practice lead or delivery principal level within major consulting or SI AI practices (Bonus). Benefits - Total compensation includes meaningful equity in a fast-growing startup, along with a competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package. - Base salary is determined by a range of factors including individual qualifications, experience, skills, interview performance, market data, and work location. - On Target Earnings (Plus Equity): $330,000 — $380,000 USD. Company Description Fireworks is a Series C company valued at $4 billion and backed by top investors including Benchmark, Sequoia, Lightspeed, Index, and Evantic. We’re an ambitious, collaborative team of builders, founded by veterans of Meta PyTorch and Google Vertex AI. Fireworks AI is an equal-opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all innovators.

Senior Staff AI-Native Software Engineer - Agentic Systems
ServiceNowServiceNow provides cloud-based services that automate enterprise information technology operations. As an employer, ServiceNow offers a challenging, collaborat
Company Description It all started when engineer Fred Luddy wrote code that automated a tedious task for his coworker, Phyllis. She cried tears of joy. That moment inspired Fred to build a company that could do that for everyone-freeing people from busywork so they could focus on meaningful work. Today, ServiceNow is the AI control tower for business reinvention. Our ServiceNow AI platform brings together any AI, any data, and any workflow- helping 85% of the Fortune 500® work smarter, faster, and better. We're building an AI-native culture where technology and talent are unstoppable together. And we're just getting started. Join us to put AI to work for people. Job Description About the Team AI Engineering and Delivery is the customer-obsessed engineering group building the agentic AI and enterprise-scale search systems that power Now Assist, AI Agents, and the AI-driven experiences our customers rely on every day. We build AI as foundational platform infrastructure - prioritizing robustness, performance, safety, and real-world customer impact at scale. Types of problems you'll get to work on You will design, build, and operate production-grade agentic AI systems embedded across ServiceNow's platform - autonomous agents that reason over real enterprise data, take action across workflows, and run safely at Fortune 500 scale. Your core focus areas: - Agentic architecture. Design and ship multi-agent systems - orchestration, tool use, planning loops, memory, and failure recovery - that operate reliably in production, not in notebooks. - Enterprise-grounded reasoning. Build agents that leverage ServiceNow's data layer - CMDB, Workflow Data Fabric, and Knowledge Graph - to make decisions with context no frontier model has on its own. - Trust, safety, and governance. Own the guardrails: observability, human-in-the-loop controls, and compliance infrastructure that make autonomous systems safe to deploy at scale. - Retrieval and grounding. Work closely with our search team to ensure agents are grounded in accurate, low-latency retrieval - RAG pipelines, hybrid search, re-ranking, and evaluation - as a critical dependency of agentic quality. - Model integration and evaluation. Integrate frontier models (Anthropic, Google, OpenAI) into the Sense → Decide → Act → Govern architecture; evaluate trade-offs across cost, latency, and capability for production use cases. Engineering leadership. Raise the technical bar through architecture decisions, code reviews, and coaching - particularly on agentic design patterns and production AI discipline. Why join us Intelligence is commoditizing. Context and execution are not. With 100B+ workflows, 6.5T transactions a year, and 85% of the Fortune 500 on our platform, we are building the system that makes AI actually work inside the enterprise - Sense, Decide, Act, Govern. What's shipping as we speak: AI Specialists autonomously resolving cases across IT, CRM, HR, and Security. Action Fabric opening our full system of action to any external agent via MCP - Anthropic's Claude Cowork is the first design partner. Project Arc with NVIDIA bringing governed autonomous desktop agents into production. Build Agent live inside Cursor, Claude Code, and GitHub Copilot. AI Control Tower with kill-switch capabilities and cross-vendor agent governance. These are production systems at Fortune 500 scale, not roadmap slides. You'd work across three problem spaces at the frontier of what we do: Autonomous Enterprise: Self-driving business processes grounded in CMDB, Workflow Data Fabric, and Knowledge Graph - context no frontier lab can replicate), Omni-channel AI Resolution: Production voice, chat, and computer-use agents with generative UI, live with customers today, AI Control Tower: Identity, entitlements, and audit-grade compliance for every agentic system in the enterprise - nobody else has this layer. You will build the substrate that connects all four: SENSE (any data) → DECIDE (any AI model) → ACT (any workflow) → GOVERN (identity + governance). The architectural inflection point is now. Qualifications To Be Successful in This Role - 8+ years of software engineering with strong fundamentals in data structures, algorithms, and distributed systems. - Hands-on depth designing, shipping, and operating agentic systems in production - multi-agent orchestration, tool calling, planning loops, memory, and failure recovery. Not prototypes. - Production-grade Python. Systems language (Go, Java, or C++) is a plus. - Working experience with frontier AI SDKs (Anthropic, Google, or OpenAI) - prompt engineering, structured outputs, and model evaluation in production settings. - Familiarity with RAG and retrieval patterns in production - vector stores, hybrid search, and retrieval evaluation metrics. - Track record of technical leadership: architecture ownership, code quality bar-raising, and mentoring engineers on production AI practices. Nice to Have - Deeper specialization in search and retrieval at scale or MLOps/model observability. - Published work or open-source contributions in agentic systems or retrieval. - Exposure to LLM fine-tuning or inference optimization in production.
