About the role

  • A Solutions Engineer can stand up an impressive AI agent demo in an afternoon.
  • Making that demo reliably show what Fin actually does - across every channel, every persona, every vertical, in front of the world's most discerning buyers - is a different discipline entirely.
  • That discipline is what we're hiring for.

Responsibilities

  • Aside from building the systems to support demos, you will embed with our product teams to support net new product releases before they go-to-market.
  • You will understand how to position the product, collaborate on talk tracks with PMM, and figure out how to build simulations, hands-on training materials and challenges to train the field in our products.
  • Own the Fin demo platform end-to-end. Multi-tenant mock workspaces, seeded data, configuration, reset infrastructure, and guardrails that make demos reliable, fast, and safe.
  • Build first-class demo features into Fin itself. Create UI and workflows so SEs can spin up, reset, and tailor demo accounts in minutes - not hours.
  • Let SEs move faster. Build templates, libraries, and scripting hooks so SEs can compose complex demo scenarios with guardrails - not raw access to production.
  • Partner with Enablement. Design hands-on training, demo libraries, and certification paths that ramp SEs and AEs faster than anywhere else in the industry.
  • We believe that working in person helps us stay connected, collaborate easier and create a great culture while still providing flexibility to work from home.

Requirements

  • Hands-on AI/LLM product experience.
  • You've built with LLMs, you understand RAG, tool use, agents, and evals, and you know the practical limits of current models.

Nice to have

  • Deep familiarity with SDKs, wrappers, and developer-facing APIs - you've both built them and integrated against them.
  • RESTful APIs and SaaS integrations are second nature.
  • You've made yourself measurably more productive with Claude Code or equivalent agentic coding tools.
  • You can show concrete examples of where AI doubled your output - and you'll teach the rest of the SE org to do the same.
  • You care how the demo looks, not just what it does.
  • You know that a demo that works but looks amateurish loses deals.
  • An eye for what makes a demo land - the difference between a feature walkthrough and a story that closes deals.
  • Experience designing or maintaining multi-tenant demo or sandbox environments, including synthetic or anonymised data.

Skills

  • Codify what works. Turn patterns from the field into tools, templates, and playbooks the whole GTM org can use.

Compensation

  • The base salary range for candidates within the San Francisco Bay Area is $237,00 - $278,00.
  • The base pay range is subject to change and may be modified in the future.

Benefits

  • We are a well-treated bunch, with awesome benefits!
  • Competitive salary and meaningful equity
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Flexible paid time off policy
  • Paid Parental Leave Program
  • All regular employees may also be eligible for the corporate bonus program or a sales incentive (target included in OTE) as well as stock in the form of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs).
  • Actual base pay will depend on a variety of factors such as education, skills, experience, location, etc.

Company info

  • You'll need to be a talker - comfortable juggling lots of relationships across the company, and moving work forward through clarity, not just code.
  • Show Fin across every surface it touches. Web Messenger, mobile SDKs, voice, email, Slack, API-driven workflows. The demo should match how customers will actually deploy.
