Principal Sales Engineer - Insurance
-Fynapse
Team: Fynapse GTM
Reports to: Global Head of Sales Engineering
Location: Boston
Travel: Frequent — global travel and in-person executive presence are core to this role
Level: Individual Contributor
WHY THIS ROLE EXISTSInsurance is one of Fynapse's priority verticals, and the deals in it look nothing like a generic enterprise sale. A Tier 1 insurer consolidating dozens of legal entities, an actuarial and finance function trying to close under IFRS
17 and USGAAP, a claims and reserving process that has to reconcile back to the general ledger — these are deals where technical-accounting credibility is key to the sales strategy, and where getting the architecture, the regulatory narrative and the commercial construct wrong in board-level conversation costs the deal.
This role is a senior technical voice of truth on Fynapse's largest, most complex insurance pursuits. You are not a technical resource brought in on request — you are jointly accountable with the Account Executive for the full opportunity, from qualification and value framing through to commercial construct and delivery handover. You set the standard the rest of the presales organisation works to, not just for insurance, but for how Fynapse runs its most strategic deals globally.
WHATYOU’LL OWN Deal leadership and commercial accountability
Operate across New Business, Account Management and Partner-led motions on the largest, most complex insurance pursuits.
Co-own the commercial construct with the AE — deal shaping, multi-year commercial models, partner economics — carrying equal accountability for the commercial outcome, not just the technical one.
Challenge commercial models, motion choices and deal-selection decisions at the most senior level, including where a deal shouldn't be pursued.
Shape multi-year transformation roadmaps across the largest insurance installed-base accounts.
Drive multi-use-case transformation demonstrations across the largest insurance carriers and set the standard for demo and POC approach that the wider pre-sales organisation follows.
Co-own solution strategy (with the AE) for multi-region, multi-product insurance transformations — general insurance, life, reinsurance, claims, actuarial and finance consolidation — and shape the multi-year technical and architectural roadmap for strategic accounts.
Maintain deep architectural understanding across the whole Fynapse platform, not just the insurance-relevant modules, so the roadmap conversation never boxes itself in.
Set response strategy on the largest global insurance bids — agree win themes with the AE and Sales leadership, contribute to bid/no-bid decisions, and personally own the most complex architecture, security and regulatory (Solvency II, IFRS 17, data residency) sections.
Build the reusable insurance bid content — architecture narratives, regulatory responses, reference answers — that the global organisation bids from, so good answers don't get rewritten from scratch every time.
Set the value-selling standard for insurance deals: build reusable value frameworks and benchmark data specific to carriers' cost and risk drivers (close cycle cost, reconciliation effort, regulatory reporting cost, cost of delay).
Co-own multi-year, multi-workstream business cases with the AE on the largest transformation programmes and personally defend them at board and C-suite level.
Codify MEDDPICC validation into repeatable standards used across regions and partners on insurance deals.
Define the escalation thresholds and deal-risk signals Sales leadership uses to make stage and…
