As part of your role, you will:

• Drive Pre-Sales Prototyping: Partner with Sales on strategic opportunities to build and present working proofs-of-concept (PoCs).
• Engineer Creative Solutions: Make rapid build-vs-simulate calls and run workarounds (scripts, temporary API bridges, data feeds) to close product gaps and prove our capabilities live.
• Translate Tech to Revenue: Present to technical and business stakeholders alike, from CTOs to league leadership, so they see the business case and monetization value, not just a demo.
• Own the Implementation: Carry the deal across the finish linepartner with the customer's technical team to turn your PoC into a live integration and stay accountable through the first stable production release.
• Champion the North American Market: Be the definitive technical voice of the NA customer to our Israel-based Product and R&D teams, turning field feedback into structured roadmap input.

Requirements

You should bring with you:

• A Hands-On, Scrappy Builder: You write code regularly (APIs, scripting, basic cloud) and have a track record of making undocumented or unfamiliar third-party systems do what you need.
• Commercial & Executive Presence: You confidently present live to CTOs and business leaders, handle pushback on the spot, and tie technical architecture directly to revenue.
• High Autonomy & Good Judgment: You can take an open-ended ask and run with it without a spec, while knowing exactly where the line sits between demonstrating a capability and overstating one.
• End-to-End Follow-Through: You stay in the game after the contract is signed as motivated by a stable, live integration as by winning the deal.
• Global Collaboration: Comfortable working across North American time zones while staying tightly aligned with an R&D team based in Israel.
• Track Record in a Deal-Facing Technical Role: Several years of experience in pre-sales, solutions engineering, or technical account management, ideally in B2B SaaS.
• Strong Ownership & Communication: You bring clarity to ambiguity and communicate with equal confidence to engineers and non-technical stakeholders.
• Background in pre-sales, solutions engineering, hackathons, or early-stage startups (0-to-1 building).

Bonus points if you have:

• Experience carrying a signed deal into production at a B2B SaaS company (implementation, professional services, or technical onboarding).
• Familiarity with sports technology, video/streaming pipelines, or B2B SaaS integration patterns.

Why You'll Love Working Here

• Make an Impact Where It Matters: Your work reaches millions of sports fans, athletes, families, clubs, and coaches around the world — from parents watching a Friday night game to coaches looking for their next competitive edge.
• Play with Real Technical Challenges: Build technology around real-time video at global scale, consumer experiences that need to feel effortless, and AI capabilities that are changing how sports are captured, produced, watched, and analyzed.
