- Executive Persuasion: Superior presentation skills with the highest degree of comfort and confidence speaking with and influencing technical and non-technical executives and IT management

What the job involves
- As a Senior Solutions Engineer, you’ll be the trusted advisor who champions Fiddler’s value, showing customers not just what we do, but why it matters
- You will be an essential technical bridge between our innovative AI platform, and the needs of our enterprise customers
- You will directly contribute to accelerating our revenue growth by building and proving the technical and business value of Fiddler AI in high-stakes sales engagements
- Joining Fiddler means getting to be an industry trailblazer in a rapidly innovating AI/ML industry
- We value high trust, autonomy, and continuous learning. We’re a highly collaborative, supportive group, always ready to jump in to help a teammate scope a complex Proof of Concept (PoC) or strategize on a challenging sales cycle
- Our team culture is built on a shared sense of mission and "startup grit". We treat every challenge as a learning opportunity and thrive on adaptability
- Increase Revenue Velocity: Close a percentage of qualified high-priority sales opportunities by owning the technical win, from initial presentation to final validation, ensuring the prospect's technical requirements and business value needs are fully met by the Fiddler platform
- Ensure Technical Success in PoCs: Successfully facilitate, scope, and deliver Proof of Concepts, resulting in a clear, documented path for customer production deployment and a final presentation that quantifies Fiddler’s value (e.g., $ savings, % reduction in bias, etc.) for executive stakeholders
- Drive Advocacy: Cultivate strong, trusted relationships with technical stakeholders, converting them into internal Fiddler advocates and power users who actively champion our platform's adoption within their organizations
- Influence Product & Market: Deliver product feedback and market intelligence (e.g., competitive gaps, feature requests) to the Product team on a weekly basis, resulting in actionable product updates, while also contributing to our public-facing market publications, documentation, and FAQs
- Champion & Provide: Effectively develop and deliver tailored presentations and sales materials that clearly communicate Fiddler’s value proposition, adapting content and style to diverse customer audiences in the absence of a defined playbook
Our take
AI and machine learning are increasingly shaping the way organizations make decisions. However, one major challenge is that AI technology often operates as a "black box". Unlike traditional software, where developers can review code to understand its logic, AI systems can be opaque, making it difficult for companies to fully grasp how data is interpreted and outcomes are reached.
Fiddler AI aims to address this gap with an explainable AI platform that offers transparency into how models make predictions. By providing clear insights into decision-making processes and enabling adjustments when bias is detected, Fiddler enhances trust and accountability in AI systems.
This focus on building trust in AI comes at a crucial time, as the market is expected to grow over 30% annually, reaching nearly $300B by 2026. Fiddler AI has already partnered with major banking institutions and online brands like Etsy. And with recent funding, Fiddler is well-positioned to compete with rivals like Reflektion and Conviva.
