About Us
We are a fast-growing data-as-a-service provider helping businesses access high-quality business data via a robust REST API. Our platform is trusted by many leading companies in their field to power intelligent decisions, automation, and AI applications. We are now expanding our sales team with a technically skilled Sales Engineer to help customers succeed from day one.
Your Role
As a Sales Engineer, you will work closely with our sales team to identify customer needs, explore potential solutions using our API, and ensure a smooth technical onboarding experience. You will be the trusted technical advisor during the sales process and an essential bridge between commercial teams and our customers' developers or product teams.
Key Responsibilities:
Partner with (key) account executives to understand customer goals and technical requirements
Explain API capabilities, data models, and integration workflows in a clear, customer-centric way
Evaluate customer challenges and propose tailored solutions using our REST API and MCP
Assist customers with initial setup and integration steps, guiding them through the documentation and best practices
Troubleshoot early implementation issues and coordinate with internal technical teams if needed
Deliver demos, proof-of-concept support, and API walkthroughs
Capture feedback and collaborate with product teams to inform roadmap improvements
What We’re Looking For:
Solid understanding of APIs, REST, JSON, authentication (OAuth, API keys), and data workflows
Experience working in a technical customer-facing role such as Sales Engineer, Solutions Engineer, Technical Consultant, or Developer Advocate
Strong communication and interpersonal skills — able to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders
Comfortable debugging basic integration issues (e.g., API calls, response errors, authentication problems)
Familiarity with Postman or similar API tools is a plus
Bonus: knowledge of data pipelines, B2B data, or data integration platforms
