As Solutions Engineer, you9ll own the technical implementation layer between go-to-market and the product. You9re the person who knows whether a Dayforce sync is misconfigured or unsupported, can walk a customer through a Reporting API setup without pulling in an engineer, and can tell an AM exactly how to position Engine9s Open API before a deal closes. You9ll cut the avg 5-7 escalations per week, build the playbooks that prevent the next wave, and make sure high-value deals never stall because someone didn9t know how a connector worked.

Note: this role requires that you work 3 days/week from our Chicago office at 500 W Madison St, Chicago, IL 60661
Your Mission:

Own the integration request queue

• Be the first technical responder on all inbound integration requests - HRIS (UKG, Dayforce, BambooHR), ERP/accounting (Sage, Business Central, Dynamics 365, Xero, Acumatica, Workday), Reporting API, Open API, and iPaaS (Workato, Zapier).
• Run setup and debugging calls that currently pull in Product or Engineering; resolve or escalate with a clear written summary, not a new meeting request.
• Own the intake process: define a triage template (system, use case, deal value, destination, schedule) and a routing framework by complexity tier.
• Track request volume by system type and feed the data directly into roadmap prioritization.

Build the implementation knowledge base

• Create and maintain a connector compatibility matrix - what9s supported, what9s in flight, what9s a workaround, and what9s a hard no.
• Write per-connector one-pagers for the five most-requested systems, covering setup steps, common failure modes, and known limitations.
• Record setup and debugging calls; turn the most common ones into reusable Looms and setup guides that AMs and customers can use without scheduling a call.
• Maintain a sandbox/demo environment AMs can use to walk customers through integration capabilities before they commit.

Enable the field team

• Train IMs/AMs to qualify integration feasibility and run first-level setup for the most common connectors, so they9re not skipping straight to Product on every 44;can we connect to X?44; question.
• Build quick-reference collateral for common ERP, HRIS, and API objections: what9s supported today, what9s coming, and how to handle a connector gap without losing the deal.
• Partner with Product Marketing on technical readiness for integration-related product launches.

Protect engineering time

• Set and hold a clear escalation bar: define what requires Engineering vs. what you can resolve independently.
• Surface repeat escalation patterns to Product as structured feedback - with volume, deal value, and customer impact attached.
• Reduce integration-related Product and Engineering call time week-over-week; own the metric.

How Success Is Measured

• Deflection rate: % of integration requests resolved without Engineering escalation
• Time-to-resolution and time-to-first-successful-sync
• Product/Engineering integration call time, week-over-week
• Repeat question volume (tracked through the intake queue)
• Request volume by connector type (fed into roadmap)
• Revenue at risk resolved: deal value unblocked by your involvement
• HRIS sync reliability: failed-sync rate across active integrations

Cross-Functional Partners

• Product
• Engineering
• Sales (New Business)
• Expansion (Account Management)
• Implementation
• Revenue Enablement
• Product Marketing

What You9ll Bring to Engine:

• 3-5+ years in a Solutions Engineering, Technical Account Management, or Implementation Engineering role at a B2B SaaS company.
• Hands-on experience with HRIS integrations (UKG, Workday, BambooHR, Dayforce, or similar) and/or ERP/accounting connectors (NetSuite, Dynamics, Xero, Acumatica, or similar).
• Comfort working directly with REST APIs - you can read documentation, write a test call, and diagnose a sync failure without an engineer in the room.
• Strong written communication: you can turn a debugging session into a reusable guide, and a customer escalation into a structured product brief.
• Experience working across Sales and Account Management teams - you know how to translate 44;can we connect to X?44; into a scoped, honest answer the field can use.
• Comfort using AI tools to document, diagnose, and scale enablement content without sacrificing accuracy or depth.

Bonus points

• Experience with iPaaS platforms (Workato, Zapier, Boomi, or similar)
• Background in travel technology, fintech, or SMB-focused SaaS
• Experience building or maintaining a sandbox/demo environment
• Familiarity with data warehouse integrations (Snowflake, BigQuery, S3)
• Prior experience writing connector documentation or API one-pagers for a go-to-market audience
