About the role
Manager of Technical Deployment leading a team of Forward Deployed Engineers and Technical Deployment Leads focused on Financial Services engagements, responsible for portfolio health, delivery quality, and field-to-product feedback, with client-facing executive interaction and hands-on oversight of complex deployments.
Responsibilities
- Hire, develop, and retain a team of TDLs embedded in Financial Services engagements. Set a high bar for delivery judgment, technical fluency, and customer presence, and run the interviews that hold it.
- Manage each TDL directly: regular 1:1s, clear expectations, direct feedback, and a growth plan. Build a bench that runs engagements well without you in the room.
- Own portfolio health across the vertical. Track which engagements are on track, at risk, or closing out, and intervene early when delivery drifts. Run engagement quality reviews with your team.
- Own customer outcomes across the portfolio. Hold the executive relationship with customer sponsors, run steering committees, and represent Anthropic's credibility with senior business, risk, and engineering leaders.
- Make the staffing call for each engagement. Work with FDE managers to match TDLs and engineers to each customer, and adjust as scope changes.
- Lead the most complex engagements yourself. Take the TDL seat when engagement size, regulatory exposure, or organizational complexity calls for it, from delivery plan through production.
- Set the bar for delivery excellence — SOW quality, MVP scoping, and value measurement. Ensure every engagement has a defensible impact story.
- Codify reusable solution patterns, evaluation frameworks, and technical playbooks across the team. Turn what works in the field into delivery infrastructure that lets the practice scale.
- Partner with Sales to qualify engagements, shape scope, and inform SOWs. Partner with Marketing and Sales on Financial Services–specific go-to-market materials, reference cases, and positioning.
- Run the team's operating rhythm: engagement reviews, knowledge-sharing, and escalation support, and report into the wider post-sales cadence and dashboards. Set team goals tied to customer outcomes.
- Bring the field back to Anthropic. Surface delivery lessons and emerging Financial Services use cases to Product and Research, and represent the vertical in leadership discussions.
- Consistently uphold Anthropic's values as you lead your team. TDLs should be strong representatives of Anthropic's culture as they work within customer environments.
- Travel to customer sites (25–50% expected).
Qualifications
- 8+ years leading enterprise AI/ML delivery, with at least 3 years directly managing people who owned delivery outcomes.
- Track record of building and leading technical delivery teams in enterprise environments, ideally including embedded or forward-deployed teams working at client sites.
- Delivered AI, ML, or LLM-based agentic solutions into production. Understanding of solution patterns, integration approaches, and real-world challenges.
- Depth in Financial Services (banks, insurers, asset managers). Understanding of model risk, security, and compliance review, and ability to speak credibly with CIOs, CROs, and heads of engineering.
- Ability to navigate architecture discussions with engineering stakeholders, evaluate technical trade-offs, and guide technical direction with FDEs.
- Experience with value-based scoping, including TCO/ROI quantification and post-deployment impact measurement.
- Ability to thrive in ambiguity and build teams/practices from early stages.
- Executive presence with senior leaders and hands-on engagement reviews with teams.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills for translating technical complexity into clear narratives.
