Full Job Description
What You'll Do
  • Partner with account executives to run technical discovery, deeply understand prospect pain points, and translate them into tailored Klarity solutions that map directly to business outcomes
  • Own the technical win in enterprise sales cycles - from initial qualification and success criteria scoping through proof-of-value execution, ensuring Klarity is positioned to win in competitive evaluations
  • Build and deliver compelling, customized product demonstrations that bring Klarity's AI capabilities to life for different audiences - from C-suite business-value narratives to hands-on technical deep dives with IT and operations teams
  • Design and execute proof-of-value (POV) engagements that let prospects experience Klarity on their own processes and data, establishing clear success criteria and delivering measurable results
  • Handle technical objections and competitive positioning throughout the sales cycle, articulating Klarity's differentiation against incumbents, consulting-led approaches, and build-vs-buy alternatives
  • Develop and refine reusable sales assets - demo environments, technical one-pagers, ROI frameworks, and competitive battle cards - that scale the pre-sales motion beyond one-to-one engagement
  • Serve as a feedback conduit between the field and Product/Engineering, synthesizing prospect patterns, feature requests, and competitive intelligence into actionable insights that shape our roadmap
  • Travel to customer sites for workshops, technical deep dives, and relationship building - presence at critical deal moments is essential to success
  • Maintain strong knowledge of the latest developments in AI capabilities, LLM implementation patterns, and process intelligence methodologies

You May Be a Good Fit If You...
  • Have 5+ years of experience in pre-sales or sales engineering roles such as Solutions Consultant, Sales Engineer, Solutions Engineer, or Pre-Sales Architect - with a track record of directly contributing to closed-won revenue in enterprise sales cycles
  • Have a proven ability to run technical discovery that uncovers real business pain, not just feature requirements - you ask the questions that reframe how prospects think about their problem
  • Are a world-class demo artist - you can build and deliver product demonstrations that are tailored, compelling, and feel effortless, whether for a room of five or an audience of five hundred
  • Have experience navigating complex enterprise buying cycles involving multiple stakeholders across IT, operations, procurement, and executive leadership - and know how to build consensus across all of them
  • Possess exceptional ability to communicate technical concepts to non-technical audiences - C-suite executives, line-of-business owners, and operations leaders who care about outcomes, not architecture diagrams
  • Have designed and delivered proof-of-value or proof-of-concept engagements with clear success criteria and measurable outcomes that directly influenced deal closure
  • Are comfortable with technical concepts around AI, LLMs, and data pipelines - enough to speak credibly with enterprise IT teams and address integration questions with confidence, even if you're not writing production code
  • Display commitment and resilience with prior employers - we value loyalty and grit, and we're not looking for candidates who jump every 18-24 months
  • Are AI-native, not AI-adjacent - you intuitively understand and use AI in your own daily work to sharpen your craft, not just talk about it in meetings
  • Have high coachability with no ego - this world is changing fast, and we need growth-mindset people willing to adapt with it
  • Are customer-obsessed with an entrepreneurial spirit, strong opinions, and a bias for action

Strong Candidates May Also...
  • Have direct experience selling or pre-selling AI technology into enterprise accounts and can articulate technical differentiation against both technology competitors and consulting-led alternatives in plain language
  • Bring a track record of building pre-sales playbooks, demo frameworks, or POV methodologies from scratch - you've done the zero-to-one work, not just inherited a mature motion
  • Have experience working deals alongside or into Big-4 and management consulting firms - you understand how technology vendors partner with professional services organizations to drive enterprise adoption
  • Bring a love of teaching, mentoring, and helping others succeed - you get energy from making prospects, customers and teammates better at what they do
  • Know how to build and maintain demo environments that are always ready and always impressive - you treat your demo like a product
  • Can balance strategic deal management with pragmatic, day-to-day sales execution - and actually enjoy both
