Maybe it's too risky or maybe it's not high enough ROI.

Maybe it's already pretty automated.

Why do we need to bring AI into it?

It also could be that of those 10 steps, only three of them actually need judgment.

So categorization of this lead in a CRM tool, that might be a little bit more non-deterministic, so we're going to bring in an LLM there for judgment.

But the rest can be solved with if-then-else statements.

It can be solved with API calls.

And this sort of judgment is actually...

you know, far more complex than I'm making it out to be even, but it belongs with the FDE.

So the FDE both has, again, the business reality, which is the consulting style, like communication style approach, but also the technical judgment so that they can determine based on their technical background, okay,

I think that this design is going to be risky, we're going to have 80% accuracy, it's not worth it.

Versus this other workflow will have a much higher ROI, we'll be able to build it much faster, it's lower risk, etc.

And that sort of back and forth judgment is where an FDE really shines.

It's bridging the gap between the business and the technology.

a lot of money, you have no idea how expensive it's gotten both from a we're hiring perspective, but also in terms of what the market's demanding.

This is the hottest role in technology right now.

I mean, you could make anywhere from 150,000 base with considerable equity to I've seen the roles go up as high as a million dollars a year.

And I'm not joking.

These are extremely well compensated roles if you are the best combination of consulting and technology.

deployed AI system, finally the last step is actually going out and building the software itself.
