Job Description

Sales Engineer collaborating with AEs to design solutions and conduct technical discovery. Working in a remote-first environment for a high-growth HR tech startup.

Responsibilities:

  • Partner closely with AEs to lead technical discovery, scoping, and product walkthroughs, ensuring a seamless transition from sales to implementation
  • Design and demo tailored proof-of-concepts that address real prospect goals — especially in complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles
  • Document key technical decisions and integration requirements — pulling in Product or Implementation where needed — to ensure smooth, high-fidelity handoffs
  • Speak confidently about our implementation process — including timelines, workflows, and typical configurations — and help scope Statements of Work (SOWs) for advanced features or integrations
  • Collaborate with Product and Integrations to identify feature gaps and scope enhancements, ensuring anything committed in a deal is realistic and well-documented
  • You’ll also:
  • Be the go-to technical resource for the Sales team — unblocking reps, training them on new features, and building reusable enablement tools and templates that scale your impact
  • Support marketing with technical insights and use cases that strengthen campaigns
  • Occasionally support technical or security questionnaires when needed
  • Help define how Solutions Engineering scales at Pinpoint — setting workflows, guardrails, and playbooks for future hires
  • Travel regularly (typically 1–6×/month, depending on deal volume and location) to support strategic deals

Requirements:

  • Enterprise pre-sales expert — you’ve supported complex SaaS deals (typically 1,000+ employee customers), blending technical depth with commercial judgment
  • Technically curious and credible — you dive into docs, APIs, and data without hesitation; you understand relational databases and systems architecture well enough to design scalable solutions
  • Integration-savvy — you can scope bi-directional integrations from public docs and customer input, and build basic workflows using GET, POST, and PATCH (ChatGPT is fair game).
  • Confident and concise communicator — you explain PoCs to engineers, sell solutions to execs, and present without fluff or hedging
  • Fast-moving and accountable — you do what you say you’ll do, make smart calls in ambiguity, and don’t need hand-holding
  • Structured and self-directed — you document as you go and create clarity when others see chaos.
  • Clear and direct — you speak up when something doesn’t make sense, challenge assumptions, and bring solutions
  • Calm under pressure, high EQ — you manage expectations, read the room, and bring composure when things get messy
  • Commercially aware — you understand how your technical recommendations influence deal velocity, customer confidence, and commercial outcomes
  • A fast learner — if someone shows you something once, you get it, apply it, and move forward confidently

Benefits:

  • We want Pinpoint to be the **best place you’ve ever worked**—somewhere you feel valued, supported, and excited to grow. Here’s what you’ll get:
  • 🩺 **Gold-plated healthcare** – The best medical, dental, and optical coverage money can buy. We’ve got you (and your family) covered
