What This Role Is Not
This is a focused pre-sale-only role. To be clear about scope:
- You do not own onboarding or implementation as that transitions to the onboarding SE at contract signature.
- You do not provide post-launch technical support as that is the domain of the full-cycle SE team.
- You are not a demo operator or slide deck builder. you are a technical partner who co-owns deal progression.
- You are not pulled into every discovery call. you engage on qualified deals above the defined threshold.
Cross-Functional Interfaces
- Account Executives (AEs): primary partner; you co-own the technical track of every deal you join.
- Director of Solutions: your manager; owns your capacity prioritization and development.
- Onboarding SE team : your handoff recipients; a clean SOW and complete discovery is your primary output to them.
- Product & Engineering: relay for non-standard requirements and feasibility questions that arise during scoping.
