• Develop expert-level familiarity with the company's full set of interfaces and feed product improvement suggestions back to the team.
• Assist clients with technical questions and make sure work passes cleanly from presales to the implementation team.

• Experience as a solutions engineer or pre-sales engineer at a B2B software or API company serving enterprise or mid-market buyers.
• Skill at making complicated technical topics meaningful to business audiences without engineering backgrounds.
• Solid hands-on background integrating software through web APIs, with the ability to read and write code and work through API reference material.
• A bachelor's degree in a technical discipline such as computing or engineering.
• Able to spend up to roughly two-fifths of working time on the road.
