    • Ensure demo platforms remain updated with product releases, feature enhancements, and roadmap developments.
    • Proactively identify and resolve technical issues within demo environments before customer-facing engagements.
    • Develop reusable demo frameworks that can be leveraged across multiple sales motions and customer segments.
Enable Presales Excellence
    • Partner closely with Solutions Engineers to understand field requirements and customer use cases.

    • Reduce demo preparation time through automation, templates, and scalable best practices.
    • Support strategic opportunities that require customized or advanced demonstration environments.
    • Help ensure technical accuracy and excellence across all customer-facing demonstrations.
Drive Technical Storytelling
    • Translate product capabilities into business outcomes that resonate with customers and prospects.
    • Design demonstrations that highlight key differentiators, competitive advantages, and measurable customer value.
    • Continuously refine demo experiences based on customer feedback, win/loss insights, and field team input.
    • Develop repeatable narratives that align with go-to-market priorities and sales plays.
    • Create engaging technical stories that simplify complex concepts for both technical and business audiences.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
    • Partner with Product Management and Engineering teams to understand upcoming releases and product innovations.
    • Collaborate with Product Marketing to align demonstrations with messaging, positioning, and campaign priorities.
    • Work alongside Sales and Solutions Engineering leadership to support strategic initiatives and enablement programs.
    • Gather and incorporate customer and field feedback to continuously improve demo environments and assets.
Required Qualifications
  • 3+ years of experience in Solutions Engineering, Sales Engineering, Solution Architecture, Technical Enablement, Product Demonstrations, or a related customer-facing technical role.
  • Experience delivering software demonstrations within SaaS, Cloud, Data Security, Governance, Collaboration, or Enterprise IT environments.
  • Strong technical aptitude and understanding of modern cloud platforms and enterprise technologies.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • Proven ability to explain complex technical concepts in a simple, compelling manner.
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously.
  • Experience collaborating with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience building and maintaining demo environments, proof-of-concept environments, technical labs, or sandbox environments.
  • Familiarity with Microsoft 365, Azure, SharePoint, Data Security, Compliance, Governance, or AI solutions.
  • Experience with scripting, automation, APIs, or cloud environment provisioning.
  • Background in Presales, Product Marketing, Technical Product Management, Sales Enablement, or Solutions Consulting.
  • Experience supporting Enterprise and Strategic sales organizations.
  • Knowledge of competitive positioning and solution-based selling methodologies.
