Sales, Engineering - TOLA
Job description
About the role
You will own the technical narrative of Meter's enterprise value proposition by articulating how our vertically integrated platform solves complex networking problems that legacy vendors cannot address. You will act as the primary technical consultant for the Enterprise Sales team, translating ambiguous customer requirements into compelling, credible solutions that drive deal progression. You will leverage deep protocol and architecture expertise to build trust with network engineers who view new infrastructure investments as high-risk decisions. You will be responsible for de-risking the adoption of Meter by proving technical feasibility and return on investment in live environments. You will collaborate closely with Product and Hardware teams to ensure real-world deployment feedback shapes the evolution of the platform. You will establish yourself as an internal authority on routing, switching, security, and wireless to enable sales cycles that are faster and more predictable. You will define the boundaries of what Meter can do today while creatively solving around limitations to keep momentum with technical buyers.
