Full Job Description
What You'll Do:
Architect the Demo Ecosystem
  • End-to-End System Design: Design and maintain the "Gold Standard" demo environment, including the system architecture, database schemas, and API layers that power Invoca's technical storytelling.
  • Full-Stack Prototyping: Build functional user interfaces and dashboards that make complex AI processes "visible" and intuitive for non-technical stakeholders.
  • Scalable "Scaffolding": Create modular demo assets and "click-to-deploy" sandboxes that the broader SE team can easily customize for specific industry verticals.
  • Process Automation: Use toolsets such as Gumloop, Zapier, or Workato to automate data flows between marketing touchpoints and sales outcomes.
Lead Technical Strategy
  • Strategic Pre-Sales: Partner with Account Executives on high-value accounts to lead integration, technical discovery, and navigate complex technical blockers.
  • High-Stakes Technical Reviews: Act as the lead architect during deep-dive technical reviews with customer CTOs and Security Officers, defending the scalability, database integrity, and security of your proposed solutions.
  • AI Thought Leadership: Collaborate with Product and Engineering to ensure Invoca remains "AI-ready," acting as a feedback loop between the field and our core product developers.
  • Governance & Safety: Implement "Human-in-the-Loop" checkpoints to ensure AI-generated demo content is reliable, safe, and free of hallucinations.
What You Bring:
  • Business Acumen: The ability to translate a dry technical architecture into a "Value Story." You understand that the best code is useless if it doesn't solve a business pain point.
  • The "Multiplier" Mindset: You enjoy building tools that make other people successful. You are obsessed with documentation and reusable code.
  • Experience: 5+ years in Sales Engineering, Solution Architecture, or Forward Deployed Engineering in a SaaS environment.Nice to Have:
  • Full-Stack Engineering DNA: You can design a multi-tier system from the database schema up to the UI. Proficiency in Python or JavaScript/Node.js.
  • Architectural Fluency: Deep understanding of RESTful APIs, Webhooks, and authentication protocols (OAuth2). You know how to connect disparate systems into a unified, automated workflow.
  • Generative AI Expertise: Practical experience with LLM orchestration (RAG, Prompt Engineering) and frameworks like LangChain or LlamaIndex. You have built systems where AI does tasks via function calling/tool use.
