Job Description:

As a Deployment Strategist I, you are the person our customers and account teams count on to keep things moving: tracking every open issue, chasing down the answer, and making sure nobody is left wondering what happens next. This role is responsible for driving business value attainment across the Alation customer base.

What You'll Do

You'll spend your day in the space between the customer, the account team, Support, and Product.

  • Keep evaluations moving. Partner with your Account Executives and Deployment Strategists to hold momentum through the sales cycle. Track every open technical question, blocker, and requirement across active opportunities: feature questions, enablement needs, environment issues, security and architecture follow-ups, and drive each one to a clear answer before it stalls the deal.
  • Keep everyone informed. Send the update before it's asked for. Customers and account teams should always know the status, next step, and task owner.
  • Supporting your peers. Work with the account team on RFIs, RFPs, and RFQs
  • Close the loop with Product. Translate customer requirements into clear, evidence-backed feedback for Product and Engineering.
  • Show customers the way. Walk users through features, run focused solution demos, and answer the "can Alation do this?" question with a working example.
  • Make the knowledge reusable. Contribute what you learn to our knowledge base and to the Alation Community, so the next person doesn't start from zero.

What You Bring

  • Follow-through you can point to. A history of owning a messy, multi-party problem and staying on it until it was resolved — in any setting: work, internship, research, volunteering, a side project.
  • Clear writing and sharp presentation skills. You can go deep on technical detail with a technical audience, then explain the same thing in business terms to a business audience; in writing or live, without losing either room.
  • Comfort in front of people. You can explain something technical to a business audience without hiding behind jargon.
  • Organization at volume. Nothing falls off your list when there are thirty things on it.
  • Knowledge about data and AI space. Some exposure to AI, databases, analytics, data integration, or cloud platforms; coursework, certifications, internships, and self-teaching all count.
  • Technical Knowledge. 1–3 years in a technical, customer-facing role (support, consulting, analytics, IT, solutions)
  • Technical Stack. Any of the following: RDBMS, Lakehouses, BI, SQL, REST APIs, AI.
  • Exposure to data governance, data space, and/or AI.
  • Curiosity and creativity. You're the kind of person who keeps asking why until you understand the customer's real problem, then gets inventive about solving it.

Practical details

  • Travel: Occasional travel within your sales territory to customer sites and marketing events. Expect this to grow as you take on workshops and proof-of-value work.
  • Who you'll work with: Account Executives, Customer Solutions Team, Technical Support, Product, and Engineering.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
