Additionally, you will optimize SE resource allocation across qualified opportunities and partner with Professional Services and Customer Success to ensure seamless implementation handoffs and long-term customer retention.

    5. Cross-Functional Alignment & Asset Reusability: Partner with Professional Services, Customer Success, and Product to achieve seamless handoffs, and introduce reusable demo assets and AI-assisted win/loss analysis to continuously elevate team effectiveness

Critical Subtasks

    1. Establish a recurring coaching cadence with weekly 1-on-1s, Gong call reviews, and demo simulations focused on business discovery and technical outcome articulation.

    2. Partner with Sales leadership to review pipeline health, assess technical risks early in the sales cycle, and ensure commercial alignment before technical progression.

    3. Develop a standardized POV execution framework featuring pre-agreed evaluation scopes, customer milestones, and formal technical sign-offs.

    4. Implement a dynamic SE assignment and scheduling workflow that accounts for time zones, regional nuances, and specialized product capabilities.

    5. Directly participate in high-value deal reviews, technical escalations, and executive customer discussions to secure strategic technical wins.

    6. Formalize seamless handoff documentation and technical validation reviews with Professional Services and Customer Success to guarantee smooth post-sales implementations.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
