About the role

We’re expanding Sales Engineering at Syndio—and we’re looking for a Sales Engineer to join a team defining what “great” looks like. In this role, you’ll lead high-stakes discovery, deliver executive-ready demos to stakeholders like CHROs and technical/security teams, and become the trusted voice when questions get deep (data, integrations, security, and AI/PII). You’ll also be a critical bridge between Product and Revenue, turning field insight into sharper demos, stronger enablement, and clearer product feedback loops.

Why this role is exciting

Sales & Technical Wins

• Support AEs in high-growth segments, executing technical discovery and delivering high-impact demos that prove Syndio’s value.
• Deliver compelling, tailored product demonstrations to CHROs, Compensation leaders, CFOs, and technical buyers, adapting the story to each persona's priorities.
• Lead technical discovery to map prospect pain points — compensation inconsistency across business units, compliance obligations spanning multiple jurisdictions, fragmented data ecosystems, pay decision risk — to Syndio's platform capabilities.
• Build and run proof-of-concept engagements, working with prospect data where appropriate to demonstrate measurable impact.
• Translate complex analytical concepts — compensation modeling, pay decision frameworks, statistical analysis — into business language that resonates with non-technical stakeholders.
• Serve as the technical voice in RFPs, security reviews, and competitive evaluations — earning trust with enterprise InfoSec and Privacy teams who need confidence before sharing sensitive compensation and people data.

Demo & Enablement Engineering

• Customize interactive demo environments and sandbox instances that showcase Syndio's full platform 
• Create reusable demo assets (guided flows, scenario-based walkthroughs, synthetic datasets) that reduce prep time and raise the quality bar for every sales conversation.
• Develop ROI models, competitive battle cards, and technical one-pagers that accelerate deal velocity.
• Partner with Product Marketing and Product Management to keep demo content current with the product roadmap and evolving market positioning.

Building the Product <> Revenue Bridge

• Feed structured field intelligence back to Product — surfacing prospect objections, feature gaps, competitive dynamics, and emerging use cases.
• Collaborate with Product and Engineering on beta programs, design-partner sessions, and early-access previews with strategic accounts.
• Mentor and onboard future SE hires as the team grows.

Basic Requirements:

• Enterprise SE Experience: 3+ years supporting complex, Fortune 500 customers and handling sensitive PII.
• Security & Compliance Fluency: InfoSec conscious with knowledge of SOC 2, encryption, and AI risk management.
• Technical Proficiency: Solid understanding of APIs, integrations, and enterprise LLM usage.
• Executive Communication: Strong presentation skills and the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
• Domain Bridge: Ability to translate complex analytical and AI concepts into business language.
• Strategic Demo Design: Designing tailored demonstrations that resonate with both HR leaders and technical buyers.
• Curious & Adaptive: High curiosity and the ability to rapidly self-teach new software and domains.

About You:

• You are a "Technical Visionary": You don't just
