Hi there!

We’re looking for a Solutions Architect to join our Sales team at Zapier. In this role, you'll partner with the team to help develop our go-to-market strategy and close key customer accounts. You’ll take advantage of a significant head start: Zapier is a leader in the automation space, with proven product-market fit and strong sales traction.

You’ll be selling a product that is consistently a preferred choice in the market. As an early Solutions Engineer at Zapier, you’ll have the unique opportunity to further expand our impact by building on our success. This role is a blend of technical consulting, solution development, and direct sales collaboration.

THINGS YOU’LL DO:

  • Take a consultative approach to deeply understand your customers’ technical needs and pain points, and present tailored, insightful solutions using Zapier’s Enterprise Automation platform.
  • Drive revenue for Zapier by positioning Zapier as an integral part of customers’ business strategy through value-driven proof-of-concepts, customized demos, and solution discussions.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams including Engineering, Product, and Customer Success to develop integration architectures and long-term adoption strategies.
  • Advocate for customers and influence the product roadmap, ensuring Zapier’s platform evolves to meet the needs of enterprise customers.

ABOUT YOU:

  • Experience: 2+ years (L2) or 5+ years (L3) in pre-sales, post-sales, implementation, or professional services at technical B2B SaaS companies.
  • Technical Acumen: You are deeply familiar with API integrations—you’ve built them, used them extensively, consulted with others building them, and guided teams with technical best practices. You’re proficient with Zapier’s platform and can communicate its value with authority.
  • Consultative Approach: You excel at understanding customer needs and providing innovative solutions.
  • Relationship Building & Nurturing: You know how to quickly build and maintain senior-level relationships, establishing trust with both business and technical teams.
  • Adaptability & Problem Solving: You thrive in dynamic, evolving environments.
  • Technical Innovation & Mentorship: You’re a fast-moving technical innovator who enjoys sharing knowledge.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: You work seamlessly across teams, partnering with Growth, Engineering, and Product to ensure customer success from pre-sale to post-deployment.
  • Data-Driven Approach: You know how to leverage both quantitative and qualitative data to craft technical plans that deliver the most impact.
  • Self-Motivated: You thrive in environments with ambiguity, driven by a strong personal desire to learn and achieve.
  • AI Fluency: You’ve used AI tooling for work or personal use—or you are willing to dive in and learn fast.

Nice to Have

  • Proven Success in Sales: You’ve demonstrated success in closing 6 figure software deals and can quickly develop and maintain relationships with senior stakeholders.
