Job description

Founding Solutions Engineer / Sales Engineer (React, Dev Tools)

We’re hiring our first dedicated Solutions Engineer to sit at the intersection of engineering, sales, and customers. You’ll be the technical authority in the deal cycle and the person customers trust to get them live in production.

Delivery Consultant @ This is Growth | Email: Neil@think-growth.com | Mobile: +44 7723 428998

What You’ll Actually Do
  • Lead technical discovery & demos with engineering-led buyers
  • Debug React, TypeScript & CSS issues directly in customer code
  • Run proofs‑of‑concept and technical validations that unblock deals
  • Help customers integrate an SDK into production environments
  • Build repeatable onboarding & implementation processes (not services, not hand‑holding)
  • Act as the technical voice of the customer back into product & engineering
What’s On Offer
  • 15% performance bonus
  • Meaningful equity as a founding hire
  • 4 days/week in a Central London office
  • Real influence over how Solutions Engineering is built from scratch
  • Direct exposure to founders, sales leadership, and enterprise customers
Why This Is Interesting
  • First SE hire → define the function
  • Strong engineering culture → founders who actually care about product
  • Clear path into senior/strategic roles as the company scales
This Role Is For You If…
  • Ex‑developer / engineer who moved (or wants to move) into a customer‑facing technical role
  • React is second nature; hooks, state, component patterns, debugging
  • You can explain complex technical concepts without dumbing them down
  • You thrive in early‑stage environments where nothing is fully defined yet
  • You’re hungry, coachable, and want real ownership, not a boxed‑in job description
