• Collaborate with internal delivery and operations teams to ensure proposed solutions are feasible, scalable, and aligned with implementation best practices
• Create accurate, customized proposals, solution designs, and supporting documentation in a timely and efficient manner
• Assist Sales Consultants in leveraging company-provided and partner-generated leads to expand existing customer relationships and drive net-new business
• Maintain working knowledge of CRM and quoting platforms (ConnectWise CPQ and ConnectWise Manage, Microsoft Dynamics CRM) to support opportunity tracking and proposal generation
• Stay current on industry trends, emerging technologies, and partner offerings through ongoing research, training, and hands-on testing
• Serve as a technical resource for follow-up questions, solution clarification, and customer communications
• Participate in continuous improvement of sales engineering processes, tools, and standards
• Perform other related duties as assigned by Sales Engineering or Sales Leadership

• Experience supporting presales activities such as solution design, technical discovery, demonstrations, and proposal development
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with comfort presenting to customers and internal stakeholders
