Do I have to be an engineer to do this? I’m an account executive for a large company and I do a lot of this stuff already without being paid 400k😭

Sounds like a business analyst or business process consultant… just a new job title for AI integration and implementation

It's just a dedicated Solution consultant. They make inky slightly more because their expected to have soft skills as well

FDE contract roles are paying $60 an hour which is nothing. I've had six recruiters reach out at that rate for different companies. I don't know if FD in reality is a thing maybe it is but I haven't seen it manifest yet.

Just Another Guy :
I had an interview for FDE at Turing. Questions for the role included: 1. How long were the vectors used by your last RAG project encoding model; 2. How do you load balance an api. All done by a ‘senior’ 28 year old individual who himself had no background doing this. No idea what matters most in filling these roles.
