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

What we offer

In addition to our great team, culture, and our shared goal of empowering people with data, there are many other things that make Statista a great place to work! Join us and benefit from:

  • Work from abroad 10 days a year (up to 30 if your family lives abroad)

  • Hybrid work and flex-time

  • International team and social events

  • Free access to Perplexity Enterprise and all its amazing functionalities

  • Career & training opportunities

  • Attractive locations and modern offices

  • Mental health support with OpenUp

Some of the benefits listed here apply only to the German entity and to Junior-level roles or above.
