What the job involves
- As a Customer Solutions Engineer at Sift, you are the bridge between the customer-facing team and the engineering and product teams
- Own the most complex customer issues: Solutions Engineering is a team of highly technical customer-facing experts. You’ll partner closely with our Technical Account Management and Support Engineering teams to onboard Enterprise accounts, and make sure they maximize Sift value. This team is responsible for building a deep understanding of customers’ business problems, technical requirements and success criteria -- empowering customers to solve complex business problems
- Support the customer lifecycle: You will be the customer’s technical point of contact throughout their relationship with Sift. You’ll understand the customer's business and technical needs. Day to day this involves understanding the nuances of their integration, working alongside Sift’s data science team to ensure the customer’s machine learning model health, meticulously whiteboarding the flow of their data to expand their integration, and being the internal voice of the customer. In short, you’ll do whatever it takes to make the customer successful
- Automate and Optimize: You will apply your deep technical and customer knowledge to help iterate on and improve internal and external processes. For some customers, you’ll write custom queries and scripts to calculate metrics to prove ROI, and optimize recurring processes. Internally, you will automate tasks, and take innovative approaches to problem-solving that will have the power to help guide internal decision-making
Our take
As eCommerce sales are growing, so - unfortunately - is payment fraud. In a landscape where over 80% of first-time shoppers with smaller merchants are concerned about data security, retailers have to find ways to earn trust.
Sift is one company that sets out to prevent digital fraud by verifying customer identities and payment methods. It gives its clients, that include Twitter, McDonalds, Harry’s, DoorDash and Poshmark, the ability to confidently gain trust from their customers.
Worldwide, Sift serves tens of thousands of websites and apps. Building on its growth and successful fundraising efforts, the company acquired longtime partner Chargeback, and has now made a partnership with payabl to bring AI-driven fraud prevention to European merchants.
