Senior Solutions Engineer

Our Mission

We’re not your average benefits platform – we’re the driving force that uplifts people’s lives. Our technology connects the entire benefits ecosystem, creating better outcomes for employers, employees, brokers, and providers.

Our mission is clear: to build a world where everything works at its best, ensuring every employee gets the support they need to thrive—both at work and beyond.

Your Mission

This role blends technical expertise, customer relationship management, and cross-functional collaboration to provide top-tier support to our most valuable customers. You'll tackle a diverse range of technical challenges for our largest and most strategic clients, taking full ownership of their queries. This position offers broad exposure across the business and a high level of responsibility, allowing you to make a meaningful impact. If you’re excited by a dynamic environment, enjoy solving complex problems, and thrive when given autonomy, this could be the perfect opportunity for you! 🚀

Things you will be working on… 

• Design tailored solutions that integrate seamlessly with client systems, ensuring alignment with best practices.

• Be the go-to technical expert during sales, implementation, and expansion, helping clients navigate our platform’s capabilities.

• Support and consult implementation teams on integrating Ben with HR, payroll, and benefits systems, ensuring a smooth and efficient data flow.

• Collaborate with product and engineering teams to shape the roadmap, providing valuable client feedback to improve features and usability.

• Ensure long-term success by troubleshooting post-implementation issues, driving adoption, and optimizing integrations.

• Develop and maintain technical documentation, including customer-facing guides, UAT logs, and best-practice libraries.

• Stay ahead of the curve by keeping up with the latest in benefits technology, helping to shape innovative solutions and improve implementation processes.

We will love you if you have…

• 3+ years of experience in a technical role, such as solutions engineering, technical consulting, or software engineering.

• A problem-solving mindset, with the ability to break down complex challenges and deliver effective technical solutions.

• Outstanding communication skills, allowing you to translate technical concepts for both technical and non-technical audiences.

• Experience with HRIS, payroll systems, or benefits technology 

• Familiarity with programming languages like Python 

• Strong project management skills and the ability to work autonomously in a fast-paced environment.

This won’t be a good match if you….

• Prefer a slow-paced, highly structured work environment—things move quickly here, and adaptability is key.

• Are not comfortable taking full ownership of your work and being accountable for your results.

• Thrive on routine and predictability rather than embracing new challenges and thinking creatively.

• Need established processes and rigid frameworks to operate effectively—we’re a startup, and sometimes we’re still figuring things out as we go.

• Struggle with ambiguity—while we provide guidance, there will be times when you need to navigate problems independently.

• Tend to wait for direction rather than taking initiative—we’re a high-performance, high-reward team that values proactive problem-solvers who step up and take action.
