Go-to-Market @ Flatfile

Customer Engineer

Data onboarding is a problem nearly every organization experiences. It's a big enough issue that most have slapped together some kind of solution. When they find Flatfile, they fall in love with our vision, but often need guidance in how to think about the solution in a different way. That's where our Customer Engineers come in: you'll get to dive deep into a company's data onboarding problem and emerge with a solution that can revolutionize the way they do business.

We have an ownership-driven culture at Flatfile. As a result, you can count on me to push you outside of your comfort zone, but also guide you through that discomfort. One day, that could mean getting on a last-minute call with a Fortune 500 business with minimal context and confidently workshopping a technical solution. Another day, it could be building a mock application from scratch to show off how Flatfile works best. Many days, it's both and much more. As we grow, you'll get to explore new opportunities - whether in supporting current customers, pairing with our sales team to prove out value to new prospects, or defining the best paths forward for a brand new client.

How you'll directly impact our customers

How our customers will directly benefit from your work

Our products can do amazing things and we get to showcase that functionality for our customers so that they can understand how it solves their business problems. Whether it’s helping to answer technical questions or building a POC, you will help the customer see the value of our product.

Times you'll directly interact with our customers

You are the primary technical resource for our customers throughout their journey. You will answer their technical questions during sales call, prove our product value through complex demonstrations, and assist with implementations and onboarding as well.

We wouldn't be getting the most out of Flatfile without (your customer engineer). This is one of the best experiences I've ever had with a software solution.
