Field Engineer, Public SectorActive

The opportunity

Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering.

What you'll do

  • Partner with AEs to own technical discovery, demos, POCs, and technical validation for new deals and expansion

  • Build trusted relationships across engineering, security, product and IT stakeholders

  • Go deep in mission-critical and high-security environments: developer workflows, AI tooling, complex / constrained setups

  • Help customers connect Cursor to outcomes that matter: developer productivity, secure software delivery, and mission velocity

  • Deliver technical presentations, whiteboards, and workshops for technical and executive audiences

  • Act as the customer's technical advocate internally with Product and Engineering

What they're looking for

  • Partner with post-sales to hand off cleanly and set up onboarding for success
  • You have strong communication skills and executive presence, equally: comfortable developing alongside engineers or presenting to CTOs, CISOs, and program leaders
  • You understand the SDLC and can connect technical detail to mission and operational impact
  • You have hands-on technical fluency (not full-time eng): workflows, AI tooling, complex / constrained environments
