About the Role

We’re hiring Field Engineers to partner with prospective and strategic enterprise customers.

  • Partner with Account Executives to lead technical discovery, demos, and proof-of-concept engagements

  • Build trusted relationships with engineering leaders, architects, and developers, serving as their technical advisor

  • Translate customer requirements into solution designs, guiding them on best practices for rollout, prompt strategy, and context configuration

  • Develop and deliver technical presentations, whiteboard sessions, and hands-on workshops tailored to customer needs

  • Act as the customer’s technical advocate internally, influencing roadmap priorities and escalating feedback to Product and Engineering

  • Collaborate with post-sales teams to ensure a smooth handoff and successful customer onboarding

  • Maintain deep knowledge of Cursor’s capabilities and competitive landscape to position our value effectively

  • Support strategic account planning and help drive expansion opportunities with technical validation

  • You have strong communication skills and executive presence, equally comfortable coding alongside developers or presenting to CTOs

  • You have a deep understanding of the software development lifecycle, modern engineering org structures, and developer productivity challenges

  • You have hands-on technical ability, you don’t need to be a full-time engineer, but you should be fluent in technical workflows, AI tooling, and debugging complex environments

  • You are customer-obsessed with a knack for translating technical details into business impact

  • You have experience in Field Engineering, Solutions Architecture, Pre-Sales, or Consulting for enterprise software

  • You thrive in a startup environment: resourceful, adaptable, and proactive in creating solutions
