Job Responsibility

  • Own the technical and strategic dimension of Seismic's most complex, high-value enterprise opportunities, partnering closely with Account Executives to shape deal strategy, not just support it
  • Engage directly with C-suite and senior business stakeholders (CMO, CSO, CRO, CIO), leading executive conversations that connect Seismic's capabilities to their most pressing business priorities
  • Craft and deliver highly tailored product demonstrations and proof-of-concepts that go beyond feature walkthroughs, building solution narratives specific to a prospect's vertical, business model, and buying committee
  • Lead complex, multi-phase proof-of-concept engagements, including scoping success criteria with prospects, coordinating internal resources, managing timelines, and driving the evaluation to a clear technical win
  • Leverage AI tools and automation to accelerate demo environment setup, discovery preparation, and competitive positioning, modeling efficient and scalable presales workflows for the broader team
  • Act as a technical and strategic lead across multi-stakeholder evaluations, coordinating RFP responses, security reviews, and custom solution design with confidence
  • Step into a DRI role on cross-functional initiatives, whether that is launching a new vertical play, building out a competitive response framework, or establishing a repeatable POC process for the team
  • Participate in and lead tiger teams assembled around strategic deals, new product launches, or emerging market opportunities, bringing structure and senior judgment to high-priority efforts
  • Mentor and coach SEs at all levels on discovery technique, demo narrative, executive engagement, and technical depth
  • Actively invest in the growth of the people around you and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement
  • Serve as a senior voice of the field to Product Management, translating patterns across enterprise conversations into prioritized product insights that reflect real market demand
  • Stay ahead of the competitive landscape and the AI and GTM technology ecosystem to ensure Seismic's positioning remains sharp and differentiated

Requirements

  • 8 or more years of customer-facing experience in a presales or solutions consulting role within an enterprise SaaS environment
  • A demonstrated ability to engage at the executive level, with examples of navigating complex buying committees and influencing senior decision-makers
  • Proven experience owning and managing complex POC engagements end-to-end, including defining evaluation criteria, coordinating internal and external stakeholders, and closing the technical evaluation
  • Fluency with AI tools as part of your day-to-day workflow, whether that is for demo preparation, discovery synthesis, competitive research, or building custom environments
  • Comfort experimenting with and advocating for new approaches
  • A strong command of enterprise sales methodologies (MEDDPICC, Challenger, Solution Selling, or similar) and how presales fits into the broader deal strategy
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication, including boardroom-caliber presentation and storytelling skills
  • A track record of contributing beyond your own deals: mentoring peers, leading team initiatives, or taking ownership of programs that made the broader SE function more effective
  • Experience in sales or marketing technology is a strong plus, as is knowledge of Seismic's key verticals (financial services, healthcare, high-tech, insurance)
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
  • Comfortable with hybrid work and willing to travel for strategic accounts and team engagements
