Job Responsibilities
Serve as the day-to-day technical expert for fintech and payments opportunities, partnering with Fintech Account Executive Directors as the primary pre-sales Solution Consultant.
Lead discovery with prospects to understand their business models (e.g., neobanks, BNPL, card issuing, sponsor banks), risk posture, regulatory constraints, and onboarding or transaction flows—then translate these into tailored Socure solution architectures.
Design end-to-end identity and fraud workflows across Socure’s products including API integration patterns, decisioning logic, rules, and data orchestration.
Collaborate with Data Science to scope, design, and execute proof-of-concepts (POCs) and backtests for fintech prospects, defining success metrics, evaluation methodology, and governance; interpret results and present clear recommendations.
Partner with Product and Product Marketing to funnel field insights from fintech deals—including emerging use cases (e.g., instant payouts, embedded finance, KYC/KYB, account takeover)—into roadmap discussions, solution patterns, and external thought leadership.
Participate in business development activities including building and delivering compelling demos, presenting solution recommendations, contributing to RFPs/RFIs, and helping construct statements of work (SOWs) and pricing scenarios.
Act as a trusted advisor to senior client stakeholders (CRO, CISO, CTO, Head of Risk/Compliance, Product leaders) by simplifying complex statistical and technical concepts into actionable business decisions.
Partner with post-sales Solution Consultants, Customer Success, and Technical Project Managers to ensure smooth handoffs from pre- to post-sales.
Contribute to internal best practices for fintech solution design and actively mentor junior or peer Solution Consultants.
Stay ahead of fintech and payments industry trends, fraud and identity attack vectors, and evolving regulations.
