We’re a team of 50+ people spread across offices in Austin, SF, New York City, and Washington D.C! We’re excited to continue the momentum working alongside our investors and advisors from Andreessen Horowitz, Emergence Capital, Y Combinator, Avra, and Ardent.

THE IMPACT

We’re hiring a Solutions Engineer to improve Method’s technical sale and expansion motion. You will operate across pre-sales, joining customer conversations early to run technical discovery, solutioning, and integration planning so prospects and customers reach “technical yes” faster.

This role is a subject matter expert position. You’ll bring deep technical comfort (ideally in APIs), strong critical thinking, and a consultative approach to connecting customer pain points to Method’s product capabilities and roadmap. The goal is to make buying and expanding with Method easier, faster, and more repeatable.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Join high-priority deals early (often call 1–2) as the technical partner to the AE; lead technical discovery and solutioning.

- Translate customer architecture, constraints, and goals into a clear proposed approach (integration plan, sequencing, risks, and tradeoffs).

- Improve technical sales velocity by tightening the cycle from discovery → solutioning → terms with crisp technical alignment and next steps.

- Occasionally support post-sale solutioning and expansion: participate in customer roadmap conversations, propose new use cases, and accelerate adoption.

- Build solutions playbooks for Discovery and reference architecture to embed a repeatable solutions motion across pre and post sales.

- Create and maintain a lightweight knowledge base / product catalog.

- Partner closely with AEs, CS, TIEs, and Product to surface recurring issues, improve enablement, and feed product learnings back into roadmap decisions.

WHO YOU ARE

- 5+ years experience in technical Solutioning in a pre-sales environment.

- Strong technical foundation (CS preferred; STEM/engineering/math/physics acceptable with clear technical depth)

- Prior experience working with APIs (selling, implementing, supporting, or solutioning).

- Demonstrated critical thinking: you consistently get behind the question and give answers that match the underlying need.

- Comfortable operating in both pre-sales and post-sales contexts; you can shift between solution design and customer enablement.

- High ownership and speed: you ramp quickly, contribute actively on calls, and produce durable assets (playbooks, guides, demos) that reduce future load.

- Comfortable in a startup environment with ambiguous processes and evolving org structure.

EXTRA AWESOME

- Experience at API-first fintech/infra companies (e.g., Plaid, Stripe) or similarly technical SaaS (observability/data platforms like Datadog).

- Experience selling/solutioning into lenders, fintechs, or complex enterprise buyers.

- Experience building technical champions within customer orgs and partnering deeply with engineering/product teams.

- History of creating technical enablement content and reusable solution frameworks.

The annual US base salary range for this role is: $170,000 - $200,000.

BENEFITS AVAILABLE TO FULL TIME EMPLOYEES

- Medical, Dental, Vision; basic medical plans 100% covered

- Flexible PTO

- $30/day Lunch allowance when working from the office

- 12 weeks parental leave

- Commuter benefits; employer-sponsored

- Phone/internet stipend

- WFH stipend

- Student loan repayment contribution

- Lifestyle Spending stipend

- Learning & Development stipend

- Hybrid-office stocked with snacks

- Quarterly team off-sites

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.
