Forward Deployed Creative Technologist
About The Position
The Forward Deployed Creative Technologist is a crucial role on the front line of customer engagements. This individual will be responsible for building solutions for Fortune 500 brands, major studios, and fast-growing agencies using Comfy's platform and their data. The role involves working directly with customers to demonstrate Comfy's capabilities, building custom workflows, demo nodes, and proof-of-concept pipelines to close deals. The technologist will also conduct technical discovery on sales calls, translate customer problems into Comfy solutions, and own the implementation handoff from sales close through to production. Additionally, this role involves creating content such as demo videos, workflow recipes, tutorials, and community posts to support sales enablement and developer relations. A key aspect of the position is acting as a liaison between customers and the engineering and design teams, channeling customer feedback to influence the product roadmap. The ideal candidate will have a deep, hands-on understanding of ComfyUI, creative range across image and video, proficiency in Python, and strong communication and problem-solving skills. This role is distinct from a traditional sales engineer position, requiring more creativity, hands-on building, and customer-facing interaction.

Responsibilities
