In the posting’s own words
The Solutions Engineering team at Metronome is a technical group that sits at the intersection of everything Metronome does: sales, account management, product, R&D, and operations. Bottom line, we own the technical side of the customer lifecycle from the very first discovery call through demos, POC, technical scoping, and handover to our post-sales groups. We act like a producer to get the show running with Metronome. This role will train you to grow across these vectors.
What it asks for · 5
- 1-3 years of experience working in technical and/or customer-facing roles involving SaaS products (for example, roles like engineering, solutions, technical account management/consulting). Academic background in a technical area with high EQ is also sought after.
- Relentless passion for being a hand-raiser. Big challenges are exciting, small tasks are an opportunity for a win. From landing big clients to simply cleaning up an old dashboard you’re interested in learning and getting things done.
- Growth mindset is critical in being able to learn new things quickly, adapt on the fly, and operate in fast-moving startup environments that value high agency.
- Exceptional communication skills -- technical, go-to-market, and finance stakeholders should all feel like comfortable counterparts in conversing with you.
- Excitement for building and improving GTM playbooks and processes.
Also a plus
- Knowledge of the quote-to-cash space, including integrating with or otherwise interacting with tools like Salesforce, NetSuite, CPQs, etc.
- Experience as a software engineer, product manager, or in other technical roles.
- Experience in a pure sales role, particularly selling to technical buyers in engineering and product organizations or selling as a founding or early salesperson at a startup.
- Experience with logs, metrics, billing, finance, or other infrastructure or financial tooling and concepts.
