Job Summary

Greenlight helps organizations solve complex business challenges through intelligent automation agentic AI and custom technology solutions.

Our teams work directly with clients to understand their operations identify opportunities and rapidly build solutions that create measurable business value. We combine deep consulting expertise with hands-on engineering to bridge the gap between strategy and execution.

Were building a future where consultants and engineers work alongside AI to deliver faster outcomes stronger businesses and transformative customer experiences.

What makes a star at Greenlight

  • Technically deep and commercially sharp: design a solution and close a room in the same meeting
  • Fast and decisive: you thrive where priorities shift and responsiveness wins deals
  • AI-native: agentic automation and LLM workflows are not future concepts; you already building with them
  • Client-obsessed: you know what a buyer needs to feel confident enough to say yes
  • Builders credibility: when you present a solution clients see the value real-time

The Role

This is a high-impact revenue-influencing role at the intersection of technical solutioning and client advisory. The Pre-Sales Solutions Engineer partners with Sales across the full sales cycle from first discovery call through to signed contract owning the technical and solution credibility that turns interest into commitment.

You will work across both organisations new to automation and mature enterprises with established programs and sophisticated technical evaluators. You need to be equally effective advising a CFO on the business case for AI-powered automation and walking an IT architect through a solution design. You will build demos design architectures contribute to proposals and RFPs and produce client-ready materials often under tight timelines often across multiple active opportunities simultaneously.

This role has a direct line to Greenlights growth. The deals you support the architectures you design and the accelerators you build compound over time into a competitive advantage that the delivery team inherits on every project.

What Great Looks Like in This Role

The standard we are hiring to:

The best Pre-Sales SEs we have worked with walk into a discovery session and leave knowing exactly what architecture will win the deal and what the client needs to believe before they sign. They build a demo that makes the buyer think this already works before a single line of production code is written. They write an RFP response that makes Greenlights approach look inevitable. And they hand off to delivery with a spec tight enough that the team never has to guess what was promised. That combination technical credibility commercial instincts and delivery awareness is what closes deals and keeps clients coming back.
