About Our Client: Partnerships drive *****% of revenue for modern companies, yet most partner teams still rely on spreadsheets, email chains, and outdated CRMs that were never designed for partnerships at scale.
The result is wasted time, lost deals, and operational inefficiencies that limit growth.
Despite their impact, partnerships remain the only go-to-market function without truly purpose-built software.
With only ~25% of teams using a PRM, the $13B market is wide open for disruption.
Our client is building the next generation PRM—an intuitive, automated platform that removes manual work and helps partner teams scale intelligently.
From partner onboarding and engagement automation to real‐time deal tracking, the platform replaces fragmented systems with tools designed for modern partnership teams.
They are bootstrapped, profitable, and growing rapidly, having become one of the fastest‐growing platforms in the space.
The team moves fast, builds intentionally, and focuses on delivering real value to customers.
The Role
Founding Sales Engineer: You will be the technical backbone of the go‐to‐market motion.
You'll lead technical discovery, run proofs of concept, handle RFPs, and own the technical handoff between Sales and Onboarding.
This is a true zero‐to‐one role where you'll partner directly with the founder and sales team to win complex deals, while building the Sales Engineering function from the ground up.
You will sit at the intersection of Sales, Product, and Customer Success, influencing how the company sells, builds, and delivers value.
