Sales Engineer at DataProphet

Job description

Our team is expanding and we are out to find additional business developers.

You should be high energy and able to learn quickly in a dynamic, fast-paced environment. You will advocate, evangelize and sell data-fuelled products with real-world impact. You’ll dig in and become an authority in tech sales under the mentorship of our senior business developers and Commercial Director.

Sales Engineer

We are looking for a standout Sales Engineer who is a natural hustler and will be a strong advocate for our products and services. Many of our clients are household names. This is an outside sales job and you will be focused entirely on bringing in new business and will be responsible for the entire sales cycle, from lead generation to closing deals.

About You

You are an executor who is results driven and will do what it takes to help support our company and grow the business, but you can also step back and see the big picture, and propose bold ideas to help our company continue to grow and improve our services. You are passionate about building strong and lasting customer relationships. You own your goals. Together with the Commercial Director you will have ownership over the growth of sales - and owners never say “this is not my job.”
