Become the Engineer Who Turns AI Capabilities Into Enterprise Solutions

Companies do not just need people who can build AI models or agents. They need professionals who can understand a real business problem, translate it into a workable AI solution, align stakeholders, design the right architecture, run a credible pilot, and help take that solution into production.

That is the role of a Forward Deployed Solutions Engineer.

This course prepares you for the high-impact space between engineering, product, consulting, and customer success. You will learn how to work directly with enterprise teams, uncover the real problem behind a request, evaluate where AI and agents actually add value, design production-ready solutions, communicate trade-offs to technical and business stakeholders, and drive deployment from discovery through measurable business outcomes.

You will practice the work through realistic enterprise scenarios, solution-design exercises, architecture workshops, customer discovery, PoC planning, ROI analysis, and a hands-on capstone.

The goal is not simply to know AI. It is to become someone organizations can trust to turn AI technology into deployed business value.

What you’ll learn

Turn enterprise AI needs into deployable solutions through discovery, architecture, PoCs, stakeholder alignment, and business impact.

  • Run structured discovery to uncover real customer needs and constraints.

  • Translate business requirements into AI capabilities and solution architecture.

  • Identify where agents, LLMs, automation, or conventional systems fit best.

  • Design end-to-end solutions across models, agents, data, APIs, tools, and workflows.

  • Make informed trade-offs across cost, latency, security, reliability, and scale.

  • Create architecture artifacts that engineering and customer teams can execute.

  • Scope PoCs around hypotheses, success criteria, constraints, and business value.

  • Rapidly assemble AI/agent workflows using modern platforms and APIs.

  • Demonstrate solutions that can progress from prototype toward production.

  • Ask the right technical, business, data, security, and integration questions.

  • Facilitate discovery and solution-design sessions with diverse stakeholders.

  • Convert ambiguous conversations into requirements, decisions, and action plans.

  • Explain architectures, trade-offs, risks, and recommendations clearly.

  • Present technical solutions through executive-friendly narratives and diagrams.

  • Build stakeholder confidence and alignment around the proposed solution.

  • Define business KPIs, technical metrics, and deployment success criteria.

  • Develop pilot-to-production roadmaps covering dependencies, risks, and ownership.

  • Connect AI architecture decisions to ROI and measurable customer outcomes.
