Job Level
About the role
- Partner with AEs across the full sales cycle — from discovery through close — owning the technical narrative in every prospect engagement.
- Deliver compelling, tailored product demonstrations to CHROs, Compensation leaders, CFOs, and technical buyers, adapting the story to each persona's priorities.
- Lead technical discovery to map prospect pain points — compensation inconsistency across business units, compliance obligations spanning multiple jurisdictions, fragmented data ecosystems, pay decision risk — to Syndio's platform capabilities.
- Build and run proof-of-concept engagements, working with prospect data where appropriate to demonstrate measurable impact.
- Translate complex analytical concepts — compensation modeling, pay decision frameworks, statistical analysis — into business language that resonates with non-technical stakeholders.
- Serve as the technical voice in RFPs, security reviews, and competitive evaluations — earning trust with enterprise InfoSec and Privacy teams who need confidence before sharing sensitive compensation and people data.
- Build and maintain interactive demo environments and sandbox instances that showcase Syndio's full platform.
- Create reusable demo assets (guided flows, scenario-based walkthroughs, synthetic datasets) that reduce prep time and raise the quality bar for every sales conversation.
- Develop ROI models, competitive battle cards, and technical one-pagers that accelerate deal velocity.
- Partner with Product Marketing and Product Management to keep demo content current with the product roadmap and evolving market positioning.
- Feed structured field intelligence back to Product — surfacing prospect objections, feature gaps, competitive dynamics, and emerging use cases.
- Collaborate with Product and Engineering on beta programs, design-partner sessions, and early-access previews with strategic accounts.
- Build the SE function's operating model: engagement rules, coverage models, tooling stack, and success metrics.
- Mentor and onboard future SE hires as the team grows.
Requirements
- Enterprise SE Experience: 5+ years supporting complex, Fortune 500 customers and handling sensitive PII.
- Security & Compliance Fluency: InfoSec conscious with knowledge of SOC 2, encryption, and AI risk management.
- Technical Proficiency: Solid understanding of APIs, integrations, and enterprise LLM usage.
- Executive Communication: Masterful storytelling and presentation skills for high-stakes executive audiences.
- Domain Bridge: Ability to translate complex analytical and AI concepts into business language.
- Strategic Demo Design: Designing tailored demonstrations that resonate with both HR leaders and technical buyers.
- Curious & Adaptive: High curiosity and the ability to rapidly self-teach new software and domains.
