## Job Description

## What You’ll Do

## Who You Are

- 4+ years in a technical customer-facing role, such as pre-sales engineering, solutions architecture, customer engineering, or similar.
- Can write code well enough to build a working integration, read an API response, and debug issues without immediately pulling in an engineer.
- Experience with voice, telephony, or contact center infrastructure, such as SIP, Twilio, Genesys, Five9, or similar systems.
- Comfortable speaking with both engineers and executives, and adjust the level of detail without dumbing things down.
- Energized by technical sales: discovery, architecture, POCs, objection handling, and helping customers get live.

## What We Offer

- Competitive salary and excellent equity ownership.
- Comprehensive health coverage: medical, dental, and vision plans.
- Flexible time off: take what you need.
- Catered meals, transportation, gym, and a $10k annual L&D budget.
- Quarterly off-sites.
