• Partner with commercial stakeholders and enablement teams to drive solution adoption through intuitive user experiences, training, documentation, knowledge transfer, and continuous improvement informed by user feedback.

• 5+ years of hands-on experience in software engineering, technical consulting, solutions engineering, software implementation, or related technical roles, with demonstrated success building and deploying production-ready software, automations, AI-enabled products, or enterprise solutions.
• Strong ability to work directly with non-technical stakeholders, understand their workflows, and convert business needs into practical technical solutions.
• Commercial curiosity and the ability to develop a strong understandig of sales, enablement, and revenue operations processes.
• Experience taking solutions from prototype to production, including technical design, integration, testing, documentation, release management, and post-launch support.
• Comfort working across product, engineering, data, security, and operational teams in a fast-moving environment.
• Strong analytical skills, with the ability to understand business objectives, measure solution performance and outcomes, and communicate value clearly.
• A collaborative, iterative mindset: build with users, learn quickly, and scale what demonstrably works.

Measures of Success

• Demonstrable ROI through increased sales and revenue growth, enabled by greater selling capacity, improved productivity, time savings, and cost avoidance.
• Adoption, active usage, and sustained engagement with deployed solutions.
• Reduction in manual effort, process cycle time, rework, or avoidable errors.
