Role

- Is Technically Curious: You are excited to learn and demo emerging AI technologies, including orchestration, agentic workflows, and the Coda "Apps" layer (Docs & Databases)
- Understands the SE Fundamentals: You excel at technical discovery, overcoming security/IT objections, and demonstrating clear business value
- Thrives in a "Compound Startup": You are comfortable navigating a matrixed environment where functional excellence meets fast-moving Business Unit agility
- Analytical & Data-Driven: You use data to identify where AI agents can have the most impact on a customer’s unique "Job-to-be-Done"
- Communicates with Conviction: You can articulate a vision for the future of work that includes Agents and automated workflows to both technical and executive audiences
- Cross-Functional: Has a demonstrated ability to work independently with minimal guidance, proactively manages tasks and priorities across multiple projects, analyzes and executes work efficiently, collaborates effectively with cross-functional teams, and thrives in fast-paced, results-driven environments
What the job involves
- As a Sales Engineer I, you will be at the forefront of this transformation, and help organizations move from reactive tools to a proactive, agent-led productivity model, ensuring Superhuman becomes the "connective tissue" of their enterprise tech stack
- You will partner with Account Executives to drive new business and expansions by demonstrating the power of the Superhuman Suite
- You will not just demo "features" but architect agent-led workflows that solve deep business problems
- Architect Agent Solutions: Partner on strategic deals to design how Superhuman Go and first-party agents (e.g., Proofreader, Humanizer, Multilingual) can be woven into a customer’s existing workflows (Gmail, Salesforce, etc.)
- Execute Value-Driven POCs: Run Proof of Concept programs that focus on proactivity and "push" interactions rather than just reactive prompting
- Strengthen Prototypes with Real World Experience: Ensure technical demos remain robust and grounded in real-world orchestration logic, avoiding the trap of shallow prototypes
- Increase Full Platform Value: Help customers understand how the Superhuman platform accelerates the adoption and ROI of new AI capabilities across their entire workforce
- Bridge Product & Sales: Collaborate with the Agents, Go, Coda, and Mail BUs to provide the "voice of the customer" that informs our roadmap for proactive AI
Our take
From professional writing to everyday correspondence, effective communication is critical. Grammarly is an AI-powered writing assistant that helps people write clearly and without mistakes, checking spelling, grammar, and other potential pitfalls.
Grammarly was originally launched as a subscription service for students, although the platform has moved into the mainstream in the last decade. It went freemium in 2015 and now works across more than 500,000 applications and websites, including email clients, enterprise software, and word processors. Paid tiers give users more tools beyond grammar and spelling checks, including things like word choice, sentence rewrites, tone adjustments, fluency, and formality level.
The company has been profitable since the beginning and now has a valuation of more than $13 billion, placing it among the 10 most valuable startups in the US. The AI writing assistant space is heating up, and Grammarly is hoping to defend its position against offerings including Scalenut, Ginger and Microsoft's Editor by the release of its SDK, making it far easier to integrate Grammarly into other applications. So far, this has been used in over 4,000 products and earned excellent ratings and increased user numbers of Grammarly's service.
