Description

  • Own the end-to-end technical engagement lifecycle for strategic accounts, including pre-sales architecture, technical discovery, integration design, deployment, and handoff to customer success.
  • Design and oversee multi-system integrations connecting Smartsheet to platforms such as Salesforce, ServiceNow, SAP, Workday, and the Microsoft 365 ecosystem, delivering production-quality solutions and documentation for customer ownership.
  • Build production-grade integrations and create reusable assets (integration templates, architecture blueprints, configuration guides, and runbooks) so engagements accelerate future deployments.
  • Hold and maintain senior technical relationships with CTOs, CIOs, and platform architects and act as the primary technical escalation for strategic accounts.
  • Partner with account executives and solutions consultants to lead technical discovery, scope field engineering engagements, and ensure proposed solutions are deliverable.
  • Navigate enterprise security and compliance requirements, including data governance reviews, SSO/identity integrations, and compliance validations such as SOC 2, FedRAMP, and HIPAA-adjacent reviews, while maintaining deal momentum.
  • Recruit, develop, and retain a high-performing field engineering team, define career paths, set technical standards, and coach engineers through complex customer problems.
  • Drive repeatability and the solutions force multiplier by enabling solutions consultants to deploy field engineering patterns independently and by institutionalizing best practices across the organization.
  • Close the product intelligence loop by surfacing integration gaps, API limitations, and configuration friction from deployments and feeding systematic, actionable feedback into product and engineering.
  • Coordinate with the Forward Deployed AI Engineering team on accounts where AI capabilities intersect with enterprise deployments to ensure a unified technical experience.

Requirements

  • 8–12 years of enterprise software engineering or solutions engineering experience, with at least 3 years leading customer-facing technical teams.
  • Deep enterprise integration experience across platforms such as Salesforce, ServiceNow, SAP, Workday, Microsoft 365, and REST/GraphQL API patterns, including designing and delivering production integrations.
  • Proven track record of owning enterprise technical relationships and navigating complex procurement, security, and compliance reviews under pressure.
  • Demonstrated focus on repeatability and documentation so the team’s best work is reusable outside the team.
  • Proven people leadership: hiring, developing, and holding the bar on technical quality and customer commitment.
  • Strong executive communication skills with the ability to write architecture documents and business cases and present to mixed technical/business audiences.
  • Ability to travel domestically and internationally approximately 25–50% of the time.
  • Legally eligible to work in the U.S. on an ongoing basis.
  • BS or MS in Computer Science, a related field, or equivalent industry experience.
  • Nice to have: Smartsheet platform experience, experience in regulated industries (healthcare, financial services, government), familiarity with agentic AI workflows or AI-augmented deployments, partner ecosystem delivery experience (e.g., Deloitte, Accenture, PwC), AWS/Azure/GCP cloud architecture certifications or hands-on infrastructure experience, and a pre-sales solutions engineering background at an enterprise SaaS company.

Benefits

  • US base salary range $341,250–$367,500 USD plus eligibility for a market-competitive incentive opportunity.
  • Medical, vision, and dental coverage options for full-time employees.
  • 401(k) match: 50% of your contribution up to the first 6% of eligible pay.
  • Monthly stipend to support your work and productivity.
  • Flexible Time Away program plus sick time and 12 paid holidays per year.
  • Up to 24 weeks of parental leave and company-sponsored life, short-term, and long-term disability coverage.
  • Company-funded perks including a counseling membership, local retail discounts, a personal Smartsheet account, and a paid Volunteer Day.
  • Opportunities for professional growth including access to Udemy online courses and teleworking options from any registered U.S. location (role specific).
