  • Act as the voice of customers by collaborating with Product and Engineering teams to improve localized experiences; translate complex business and technical requirements into clear specifications for Alpaca's global engineering team.
  • Serve as the product and technical subject matter expert, capable of thoroughly understanding and articulating all aspects of the Alpaca platform to diverse audiences and stakeholders.
  • Work closely with local compliance and operations teams to understand local and regional product requirements.
  • Own technical sales engagement end-to-end: discovery calls, solution validation, RFPs, and security questionnaires that win deals; lead demo strategy and execution.
  • Create sales support materials and documentation for new features and products, where needed.
  • Coordinate with local regulators, vendors, and partners, and relay those requirements to global product and engineering.
  • Help customers successfully adopt Alpaca's platform while maintaining a high standard of technical and customer support; travel as needed.
  • Stay updated on internal product development timelines and work closely with the product team to test and roll out new features to partners.

What we look for (Must-Haves):

  • Experience supporting enterprise / B2B customers in a technical, sales engineering, or solutions engineering role (typically 5+ years), ideally at API or SaaS-first companies.
  • Strong understanding of REST APIs, SDKs, and software integration workflows; hands-on experience with APIs, WebSockets, Postman, Grafana, and JSON.
  • Able to translate complex technical concepts into simple, understandable terms.
  • Self-starter who thrives in a startup environment, manages multiple assignments simultaneously, works independently, and drives projects to completion with close attention to detail.

Who You Might Be (Nice-To-Haves):

  • Experience in fintech, capital markets, brokerage, or financial APIs; experience at a Broker-Dealer or securities firms.
  • Knowledge of brokerage, post-trade, and settlement operations, as well as regulatory context.
  • Closing enterprise deals alongside Account Executives.
  • US securities qualifications (e.g., SIE and/or Series 7).
  • Familiarity with Metabase.
  • Experience working with the FIX protocol.
  • Experience working with OpenAPI, ReadMe, and documentation.
  • Excited to learn more about the securities industry.

Why it works

3×

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.
