WHY WE'RE LOOKING FOR YOU:

Our sales engineering team is critical to Retool. Sales Engineers drive revenue by partnering closely with potential customers and ensuring they’re successful with Retool.

A large portion of the Retool sales process is technical, ensuring potential customers understand how to build internal apps with Retool, deploy on their infrastructure, and connect to their critical resources. Building successful relationships with our customers is a key component of this role and you’ll leverage your engineering background to dive in. 

Our revenue and business goals this year are aggressive, and we need the right team to help turn prospects into happy Retool customers. 

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

Your workday will never be boring. You’ll dive deep with prospects to understand their technical environment and their business goals. You'll create and deliver demos, build apps within Retool with prospects, answer technical questions, and manage the technical close throughout the sales cycle.

• Demo the Retool product, answer questions about Retool, ultimately convincing them Retool is the correct solution
• Create technical content to demonstrate best practices (e.g. sample apps, documentation, videos, etc.)
• Suss out the blockers for a customer in adopting Retool, and overcome them
• Dive into our codebase to understand technical limitations in Retool that need solving via code (e.g. a bug, a missing feature, etc.) to close a deal
• Serve as the primary, ongoing technical point of contact for our users in the presales process
• Answer technical questions from our customers as they come up
