- Scope and deliver proofs of value from technical validation through production commitments.
- Run product demonstrations, address technical objections, and discuss architecture with senior engineering and business stakeholders.
- Develop repeatable materials and approaches for discovery, demonstrations, objection handling, and reference architectures.
- Turn customer edge cases and technical constraints into actionable product feedback for engineering.
- Partner with machine learning and infrastructure teams to deliver deployments aligned with customer requirements.
- Travel regularly to customer sites across the UK and Europe.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- At least 5 years of professional experience, including 2 to 3 years in hands-on engineering or data work.
- A record of personally converting enterprise B2B software proofs of value into production commitments, including experience with procurement, security reviews, and multi-stakeholder buying processes.
- Strong knowledge of data warehouses, ETL or ELT pipelines, and data governance in enterprise environments.
- Experience leading technical discovery and demos with enterprise stakeholders, and delivering proofs of concept through production deployment.
- Working knowledge of production LLM and agentic systems, including their current capabilities and limitations.
- Ability to prototype with Python or SQL and communicate customer needs clearly to engineering teams.
- Experience with knowledge graphs, semantic layers, ontologies, entity resolution, regulated or air-gapped deployments, or multiple European markets is valuable.
- Comfort with ambiguity and startup environments; multilingual ability is a plus.
