Sr Sales Engineer

5+ years in a technical, pre-sales, or solutions-consulting role — sales engineering, solutions consulting, technical account management, or a similarly analytical customer-facing role.

Strong quantitative and analytical skills: comfortable working directly with data (spreadsheets, SQL or similar query languages, BI/reporting tools) and able to catch an error before it reaches a customer (ie - strong attention to detail).

Experience with retail or CPG point-of-sale, syndicated, or panel data.

The average range for this role is $130,000 - $150,000 OTE depending on experience, skills, and alignment with the role’s responsibilities. This range reflects our current national expectations for qualified candidates. Exceptional candidates based in our NYC office may be considered for a higher range. Total compensation may also include equity, performance bonuses, and a comprehensive benefits package.

We’re committed to paying competitively and equitably, and we regularly review our compensation structures to ensure they align with the market and support our values

As a Sales Engineer, you’ll partner with Account Executives throughout the sales cycle — from the first technical conversation through close.

You’ll validate our data against a prospect’s own numbers, build the analysis that makes our value obvious, and present and defend that analysis directly to technical and executive audiences.

This is a hands-on, technical role at the center of the sales process, not a supporting one.

Analysis & insight development: turn raw data into a clear, structured analysis tied to the specific business decision your audience is trying to make.

Deal scoping: scope technical requirements and build supporting pricing or proposal materials, surfacing feasibility issues early in the sales cycle.

Demo & presentation delivery: build and deliver product demonstrations and analytical presentations, including to senior and executive audiences, and adapt in real time when your findings are challenged.
