  • Experience working in State / Local Government or Higher Education industries
  • Know how to collaborate with account executives and own the technical sales process, including account strategy, discovery, demos, solution roadmaps and other technical validation steps.
  • Strong grasp of value-based selling and storytelling, not just showing features and functions.
  • Skilled with problem solving at the intersection of technology and business.
  • Proven ability to make complex ideas sound simple, clear, and persuasive.
  • Knowledge of enterprise AI platforms, GenAI, Agentic frameworks, machine learning, and data integration.
  • Hands-on experience with enterprise planning processes and solutions (e.g. Finance, Supply Chain, Workforce, Sales Performance) preferred
  • Familiarity with EPM, CPM, BI, or ERP systems is a strong asset
  • Prior industry experience with aligned accounts a plus
  • Base Salary Range :

    $139,000 — $188,000 USD
