Enterprise AI is only useful when it actually runs in production, inside the tools teams already depend on. Getting there is harder than it sounds. Forward Deployed Engineers at Atlassian work directly inside some of the world's largest organizations, building AI-powered agents, connectors, and workflows on Atlassian's platform. They work alongside customers to understand the real constraints, design solutions that hold up at scale, and see them through to deployment.

In the Startup Stories with Atlassian series, we interview founders about their entrepreneurial journey, learn about the problems they are trying to solve, and explore how their teams are using Atlassian tools to grow and deliver value to their customers. In this episode of Startup Stories with Atlassian, Adam sits down with Stan Suchkov, Founder and CEO of Evolve, to explore why pivoting isn't the failure most founders fear – and why the best founders do it deliberately, quickly, and without losing their team in the process.
