Description and Requirements

At Lenovo Solutions & Services Group, we are accelerating a company-wide AI transformation by embedding technical talent directly within business functions. As a Forward Deployed Engineering Director, you will lead a team of Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs) who partner with business leaders to identify high-value opportunities, rapidly build AI-powered solutions, and drive measurable business outcomes.

Collaborate with business stakeholders, platform teams, and data organizations to remove delivery blockers and accelerate adoption.
Communicate progress, risks, adoption outcomes, and business impact to technical and non-technical executive audiences.

What you'll need

15+ years of experience in software engineering, solutions engineering, applied AI, or a closely related technical leadership discipline.
Experience leading and developing high-performing technical teams delivering AI, automation, or intelligent workflow solutions in enterprise environments.
Strong engineering judgment with the ability to review architectures, evaluate solution approaches, troubleshoot complex challenges, and guide technical decision-making.
Experience working with business stakeholders to translate operational challenges into scalable technology solutions.
Proven ability to define operating models, delivery frameworks, technical standards, and talent development practices for growing engineering organizations.
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts in clear and practical language.
Professional-level English communication skills.
