Manager of Field Engineering

• The Physical AI Field Engineering team at CoreWeave brings AI into the engineering organizations that design, test, validate, and operate physical products
• We work alongside customer teams to identify high-value problems, build solutions against their data and real-world constraints, and deploy software that engineers use in their daily workflows
• As Manager, Field Engineering (Physical AI), you will build and lead the operating model for this specialist practice in your region
• You will combine people leadership, technical judgment, customer delivery, and commercial understanding to make Physical AI Field Engineering a repeatable, high-performing part of CoreWeave’s Field Engineering organization
• Evolve the operating model for Physical AI Field Engineering within your region, from opportunity qualification and problem framing through data exploration, model development, deployment, adoption, and expansion
• Lead, coach, and develop a high-performing team of Specialist Field Engineers, Forward Deployed Data Scientists, and Forward Deployed Engineers, including hiring, workforce planning, career development, performance management, and succession planning
• Set the technical and delivery bar for customer engagements, ensuring that teams build solutions that are grounded in engineering criteria, validated against physical constraints, and deployed into workflows where they create measurable value
• Partner directly with strategic customers and senior stakeholders across automotive, robotics, aerospace, and industrial engineering to understand their priorities, shape technical strategy, and maintain executive confidence throughout delivery
• Work closely with Account Executives, Account Managers, Account Solutions Architects, Technical Solutions Managers, Product, Engineering, and Platform teams to qualify opportunities, allocate specialist capacity, and create a consistent customer experience
• Build mechanisms that make the team more effective at scale, including reusable engagement patterns, delivery standards, onboarding, enablement, technical reviews, and knowledge-sharing practices
• Establish a disciplined field-to-product feedback loop: identify recurring customer needs, distinguish reusable product opportunities from one-off delivery work, and translate field evidence into actionable recommendations for Product and Engineering
• Own the operating metrics that show whether the model is working, including customer value, time to deployment, software adoption, delivery quality, team capacity, expansion, and infrastructure or SaaS opportunities created through engagements
• Represent Physical AI Field Engineering internally and externally, helping CoreWeave explain how domain expertise, applied AI, and the CoreWeave platform combine to solve difficult engineering problems

• Sufficient technical depth in AI/ML applied to physical systems or engineering workflows to engage credibly with ML engineers, data scientists, controls engineers, simulation specialists, and engineering leaders, and to make sound judgments about data, modeling, validation, and deployment trade-offs
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent practical experience
• 10+ years of experience in technical consulting, field engineering, product engineering, applied AI, or a related customer-facing engineering discipline
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to clearly articulate complex technical topics to technical, executive, and customer audiences
• 5+ years of experience leading and developing technical teams in a fast-moving environment, with a track record of hiring strong people, setting a clear bar, and creating an environment where specialists can do their best work
• Experience partnering across Product, Engineering, Sales, Marketing, and Field Engineering to align priorities and move work from customer signal to delivered capability

We believe in investing in our people, and value candidates who can bring their own diversified experiences to our teams — even if you aren’t a 100% skill or experience match

You want to help shape a category-defining Physical AI practice while building a team and operating model that can scale with CoreWeave

You are excited by the challenge of bringing AI into engineering organizations that may not have historically worked with dedicated data science teams

You believe the strongest teams learn from every engagement, turn repeated lessons into reusable capabilities, and share those practices generously across the organization

You are comfortable creating structure in an evolving environment, while keeping the focus on customer value and delivery rather than process for its own sake

You care about building working software that engineers use in production, not producing recommendations that someone else has to implement

You enjoy operating at the boundary between technical depth, customer outcomes, and team leadership, and you know when to go deep yourself and when to create the conditions for others to do their best work

Experience in automotive, robotics, aerospace and defense, industrial, manufacturing, or another engineering-intensive industry

Experience delivering or supporting AI solutions in embedded, on-site, production, or safety-critical environments

Familiarity with modern ML platforms and workflows spanning experimentation, model management, data exploration, application development, and cloud deployment

Capable of owning capacity models, hiring plans, creating technical career frameworks, delivery KPIs, or portfolio-level planning across multiple customer engagements

Track record of converting repeated customer problems into reusable software, product capabilities, or standardized delivery patterns
