Partner Deployed Engineer

About the role

At Cognition, Partner Deployed Engineers (Partner DEs) are force multipliers. They enable services partners like Global Systems Integrators to successfully deploy, scale, and deliver value with Devin and Windsurf across their client base. In this role, you will work closely with partner solution architects, delivery leads, and engineering teams to help them build repeatable offerings and internal expertise on top of the Cognition platform.

You will blend deep technical work, partner enablement, and ecosystem thinking. You'll lead technical enablement sessions, co-deliver pilots, unblock complex deployments, and help GSIs operationalize Devin/Windsurf into their delivery motions. You'll act as Cognition's technical representative within partner organizations.

In this role, you will own the technical success of GSI partners across onboarding, enablement, and scaled delivery of Devin/Windsurf. You'll work directly with partner engineering and architecture teams to understand their delivery models, tooling, and customer use cases. You'll enable partners to build repeatable solutions, accelerators, and reference architectures using Devin/Windsurf.

You'll lead technical trainings, workshops, and deep dives for partner teams (hands-on, not slideware). You'll support partner-led customer pilots and early production deployments, stepping in where complexity is highest. You'll build strong, trust-based relationships with partner technical leaders in GSIs (e.g., delivery heads, principal engineers, solution architects).

You'll capture field learnings and partner feedback to influence product roadmap, packaging, and partner readiness. You'll proactively identify gaps in partner capability and work with internal teams to close them.
