About the Role
The Solutions Engineering team at Envoy lives within the Customer Success organization but touches every team (sales, product, engineering, finance, etc). The team is adaptable and has the uncanny ability to pick up new skills quickly. Each day is different and involves assisting account executives with the pre-sales process, security questions, QA’ing some experimental functionality, or jumping on a call to both triage and solve a customer issue. The Solutions Engineering team is multifaceted at Envoy and includes elements of sales engineering, API development, support escalations, and world-class enterprise customer support. You might be a Solutions Engineer if you are technology-forward, enjoy learning new third-party SaaS products, find workarounds to make customers happy, and love playing with the latest technology.
