Program Manager – Commercial Programs

Full-stack Engineer

• As our GTM Engineer, Pre-Sales, you sit at the intersection of our go-to-market teams and our technical build capacity.
• You own the full cycle: find the problem, design the solution, build it, ship it, and make sure it sticks.
• Spend time with teams across the go-to-market function to understand where the friction is and where AI or automation creates the most leverage.
• Turn vague frustrations into concrete, buildable specs: the specific workflow, the data available, and what a better outcome looks like.
• Maintain and prioritize a backlog so we're always working on the highest-leverage problems, not the loudest requests.
