The RoleSolink is hiring a Director of Solutions Engineering to lead our two Solutions Engineering teams, covering SMB through Enterprise, and build a high-performing pre-sales technical organization across Solink’s software and hardware solutions.

Build a World-Class Demo and Storytelling Culture: Set the standard for how Solink demonstrates its platform through customer use cases and business outcomes. Build repeatable demo frameworks and talk tracks by vertical and persona, and coach SEs on storytelling, executive presence, and technical credibility.
Design Solutions That Can Be Deployed: Ensure solutions account for customer camera, recorder, network, and POS infrastructure, including hardware needs, appliance sizing, bandwidth planning, site readiness, and deployment requirements.
Lead Technical Workshops & Pilots: Lead architecture discussions, site surveys, RFPs, security and compliance reviews, and pilot design, with clear success criteria and a path to full deployment.
Scale Technical Capability Beyond the SE Team: Partner with Sales Enablement to raise AE technical competency, help channel partners and installers become more technically self-sufficient, and define when partner-led scoping and installation is appropriate.
