Demo Engineer

Location: While this role is open to remote candidates across the United States, team members located within 40 miles of our Scottsdale headquarters (9451 E. Via de Ventura, Scottsdale, AZ 85256) are expected to work onsite four days per week to support collaboration, speed, and execution. Specific scheduling and flexibility will be guided by your leader to support both team collaboration and individual productivity.

We are seeking to recruit our new Technical Demo Engineer to serve as the “Backstage Engineer.” Unlike traditional sales roles that are purely client-facing, this position is focused on maintaining, enhancing, and supporting Nextiva’s demo ecosystem, including demo tenant management, integrations, technical assets, product adoption initiatives, team enablement, and product feedback. The Technical Demo Engineer will partner closely with Solution Consultants by providing the tools, environments, and technical foundations needed to deliver compelling customer demonstrations, ensuring demo experiences are technically robust, scalable, and aligned with customer needs. While the role will contribute to the design and development of strategic demo capabilities, it is primarily responsible for supporting and enabling the broader solutions consulting team rather than creating every individual demo.
