The Solutions Engineering team at Envoy lives within the Customer Success organization but touches every team (sales, product, engineering, finance, etc). The team is adaptable and has the uncanny ability to pick up new skills quickly. Each day is different and involves assisting account executives with the pre‑sales process, security questions, QA’ing some experimental functionality, or jumping on a call to both triage and solve a customer issue.

The Solutions Engineering team is multifaceted at Envoy and includes elements of sales engineering, API development, support escalations, and world‑class enterprise customer support. You might be a Solutions Engineer if you are technology‑forward, enjoy learning new third‑party SaaS products, find workarounds to make customers happy, and love playing with the latest technology.

This is an onsite position that requires four days a week (Monday‑Thursday) in our Denver, Colorado office.

• Align with the Sales team (primarily SMB, while supporting Channel and/or Mid‑Market segments) to assist in all aspects of the pre‑sales process, such as technical demos, security reviews/questionnaires, and discussions around technical requirements while setting realistic expectations with prospects and customers. This is typically a co‑lead Sales effort in the upmarket segments.
• Align with the Customer Success team to assist with expansions and upsells, which may include technical demos of new features, security reviews/questionnaires, technical troubleshooting, and discussions of technical requirements while setting realistic expectations with customers.
• Work closely with a customer’s information technology, security, and legal teams to maintain compliance and user security standards.
• Be the liaison between customer‑facing teams and Product, Engineering, and Design teams.

• Educate coworkers on complex technical issues like SAML, SCIM, OAuth, Active Directory, and cloud infrastructure.
• Become well‑versed in Envoy’s Developer & Integration Platform in order to speak and demonstrate how our various integrations are interconnected. This includes understanding our API capabilities to help the customer and/or partner to begin their own development.

• 2–3 years in Solutions Engineering, Sales Engineering, Technical Support, Customer Engineering, or a similar technical customer‑facing role.
• Basic SQL skills—you can run simple queries and troubleshoot issues with guidance.
• Comfort using git and command‑line tools (you don’t need to be an expert).
• A foundational understanding of how the internet works (DNS, HTTP, TLS, certificates).
• Some exposure to APIs—you can explain what an endpoint is and how requests/responses work; deeper architecture concepts are a plus.
• The ability to write simple scripts (Ruby, Python, or JavaScript) or a willingness to learn.
