About Middesk

Middesk makes it easier for businesses to work together. Since 2018, we've been transforming business identity verification, replacing slow, manual processes with seamless access to complete, up-to-date data. Our platform helps companies across industries confidently verify business identities, onboard customers faster, and reduce risk at every stage of the customer lifecycle.

Middesk came out of Y Combinator, is backed by Sequoia Capital and Accel Partners, and was recently named to Forbes Fintech 50 List and cited as an industry leader in business verification by digital identity strategy firm, Liminal.

The Role :

As a Solution Engineer at Middesk, you will be the trusted advisor to top U.S. banks and fintechs, helping them navigate complex regulatory and risk challenges. By understanding each client's unique use cases-such as KYB, KYC, AML, and third-party risk management-you will design and implement tailored solutions that showcase Middesk's value. You'll work across the full sales lifecycle, partnering with Account Executives and Managers to deliver an optimal experience from technical discovery to deployment, ensuring projected ROI and an accelerated time-to-value.

Beyond direct client impact, your expertise will influence Middesk's product direction as you collaborate with cross-functional teams to shape our roadmap and GTM strategies. Reporting to the Solutions Engineering Manager, you'll work closely with Product, Marketing, and Sales teams to drive revenue growth and enhance our customer experience.

We follow a hybrid work model, and for this role, there is an expectation of 2 days per week in our NYC or SF office; however, we are also considering remote candidates. Candidates based near our office should be within a commutable distance, as we value in-person collaboration and building strong team connections while also supporting flexibility where possible.

What You'll Do :

• Solution Development : Design custom solutions that integrate seamlessly with client systems and compliance frameworks, addressing critical challenges like fraud detection, regulatory compliance, and risk management.
• Revenue Growth : Drive revenue by securing new logos and identifying expansion opportunities within existing accounts, collaborating with Sales to deepen Middesk's impact across customer organizations.
• Client Engagement : Partner with Account Executives and Managers to lead discovery and solution presentations, establishing credibility and building trust with executive-level stakeholders.
• Deployment & Execution : Create and execute deployment plans that align with customer expectations, ensuring fast and effective implementation for maximum ROI.
• Customer Advocacy : Build and maintain strong customer relationships, providing insights and feedback to influence Middesk's product roadmap and advocating for client needs.
• Foundational Ownership : As the first Solutions team hire in a rapidly growing Series B company, take ownership in building and refining team processes, contributing to Middesk's ambitious growth with an entrepreneurial, early-stage mindset.
