The Opportunity

As our Sales Engineering Manager, you will lead the Solutions Engineering team supporting our Corporate and Mid-Market segments. This is a high-impact, dual-focus role: developing and managing a team of talented SEs while building the operational foundation — the playbooks, coaching frameworks, and deal processes — that makes excellent SE work repeatable and scalable.

You will report directly to the Director of Solutions Engineering and serve as the primary SE partner to Corporate and Mid-Market Sales leadership. This role is 100% remote and open to candidates anywhere in the US.

ResponsibilitiesTeam Leadership and Development
  • Directly manage Solutions Engineers supporting the Corporate and Mid-Market segments
  • Own 1:1s, performance management, and individual development plans for each SE
  • Build a strong coaching culture with consistent, actionable feedback on discovery quality, demo execution, preparation, and deal strategy
  • Partner with the Director of SE and Sales leadership on headcount planning, role design, and hiring
SE Operating Rhythm
  • Design and facilitate SE deal reviews for Corp and MM: structured agendas, clear ownership, and documented follow-ups
  • Lead demo reviews and call analysis sessions focused on elevating discovery, storytelling, and customer alignment
  • Run weekly team ceremonies — standups, office hours, and enablement sessions — that keep SEs informed, aligned, and prepared
  • Ensure learnings from team ceremonies are captured and incorporated into playbooks and ongoing training
SE Operating System
  • Develop and maintain standardized discovery frameworks and templates tailored to downmarket segments
  • Codify demo patterns, talk tracks, and best-practice flows for core use cases and product areas
  • Implement pre-call preparation checklists and define clear expectations for SEs and their AE partners
  • Define a repeatable onboarding and ramp plan for incoming SEs
  • Introduce lightweight QA scorecards for discovery, demos, and technical validation — and coach consistently against them
Deal Forecasting and Technical Risk Management
  • Implement and maintain consistent SE deal scoring across Corporate and Mid-Market opportunities
  • Use SE scores to identify technical risk or misalignment early and drive corrective action with AEs
  • Partner with frontline Sales managers so SE input becomes a reliable, visible component of the forecast
  • Surface recurring product or solution gaps through SE scoring and route findings to Product and Professional Services
Sales Partnership
  • Serve as the primary SE counterpart to Corporate and Mid-Market AEs and Sales managers
  • Clarify and enforce SE rules of engagement for downmarket segments
  • Protect SE capacity by redirecting mis-routed or low-value requests to appropriate resources
  • Collaborate with Enablement, RevOps, and Product on initiatives that improve joint SE and Sales execution
QualificationsRequired:
  • 5+ years in Sales Engineering, Solution Consulting, or a comparable pre-sales role within B2B SaaS
  • 2+ years of people management or formal team leadership in a sales engineering context
  • Experience supporting mid-market or commercial accounts with multi-stakeholder, complex sales cycles
  • Demonstrated coaching ability — you deliver feedback that is specific, constructive, and drives measurable improvement
  • Proven track record of building or improving SE process: playbooks, QA frameworks, discovery templates, or onboarding programs
  • Strong communication and facilitation skills across 1:1s, team settings, and cross-functional partnerships
  • Ability to prioritize effectively and operate with confidence in a high-growth environment
Preferred:
  • Background in or around the construction or field service industry (HVAC, MEP, fire, mechanical, electrical, or specialty contracting)
  • Experience in a segment-based SE model (Enterprise / Mid-Market / Corporate / Install Base)
  • Familiarity with field service management, project management, or ERP and accounting platforms
  • Experience leveraging AI or automation tools to streamline SE workflows

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
