Job Details

Coactive makes it easy to search, filter, and analyze visual content. Increasingly image and video data captures the content we watch, the products we buy, and the work we do, and already represents 80% of internet traffic. But rather than being an asset, visual content is often a tax or even a liability because it is so hard to work with and understand. Coactive solves this by bringing structure to unstructured visual data. Rather than spending months (or years) building complex infrastructure, data teams can unlock the value of their visual data in minutes to power use cases such as content understanding and moderation, search, and analytics.

Coactive was founded by experts who shaped the fields of high-performance deep learning and data-centric AI. We have the scars from building and working with the first generation of modern machine learning systems at Google, Meta, Pinterest, eBay, Lyft, and other leading organizations. Through our decades of experience, we have developed a playbook to democratize the toughest parts of machine learning systems; no PhD required.

This is an exceptional opportunity to work with one of Forbes' top 50 AI companies, backed by key investors such as Andreesen Horowitz and Bessemer Ventures.

As a Sales Engineer, you will be one of the founding members of the Solutions  team and will be a key technical contributor working closely with the founders, sales,  and customer success.

You will also collaborate closely across multiple teams, serving as the technical sales expert for the Go-To-Market team while becoming an expert and champion of the Coactive platform.

 

What you’ll do:

  • Be an expert and evangelist of the Coactive product
  • Be the resident technical sales expert and mentor for Go-To-Market teams
  • Lead and execute successful engagements for potential new customers, including Proof-of-Value engagements and technical workshops
  • Create and deliver enterprise-grade technical materials to support sales
  • Provide feedback from the field and serve as an advocate for prospects to internal teams
  • Maintain clear documentation and streamlined processes to facilitate efficient collaboration
  • Occasional travel to customer sites and industry conferences may be required
  • Shape best practices and company culture as we grow

  • Experience in scope and delivery of technical solutions, preferably utilizing analytics and/or AI products

  • Ability to effectively communicate and guide technical and executive audiences, whether in demos, sales calls or in-person visits
  • Ability to work with technical and non-technical stakeholders to identify and solve a customers business need through an existing product
  • Ability to provide technical sales mentorship to other technical and non-technical team members, such as solutions engineers and/or account executives
