Austria customers are navigating complex decisions about digitalization, process improvement, and growth. Your ability to capture the C‑Suite's mind share and translate technology into business outcomes will directly fuel their transformation — and ours. Increasingly, this means co‑creating solutions side by side with customers and our Builder Teams, as Solution Engineering shifts toward co‑creation and consumption.

What Success Looks Like

Success is when a customer at any level — from IT staff to C-level — feels understood, sees a compelling vision, and takes the next step. You don't just demo technology; you create memorable experiences that build lasting trust.

We're looking for a curious, empathetic, and people‑oriented thinker who gets energy from solving complex problems and sharing knowledge. You think strategically, communicate clearly, and are passionate about technology and continuous learning. If you love being the first to understand how and why things work — and helping others see it too — you'll feel right at home here.

Why This Team & How We Help You Grow

You'll join a collaborative, diverse team that thrives on mentorship, professional development, and a healthy work/life balance. We invest in your growth — expanding your knowledge in emerging tech, Agentforce, and Data solutions — while you bring the process and industry expertise and presales passion.

A Note from the Hiring Manager
