Are you ready to be part of a dynamic and growing agile software company?

At Sureify we’re helping a large and critical industry - life insurance - modernize and innovate.

We need your help to grow our solution in the market and continue to grow our market share as a leader in the life insurance space.

The position is a blend of responsibilities that leverage both technical and business skills. At times, you act as a customer-facing CTO for the product you are pre-selling. This is an ideal role for a technology leader, someone who is a hands-on-expert like a true engineer but at the same time can also handle the subtle nuances of customer relationship management.

• Scoping the technical solution required to address customer requirements, assesses customers’ met and unmet needs, and recommends solutions that optimize value for both the customer and the firm.
• Supporting sales productivity and deal flow by securing the “technical close” in complex solutions.

• Defining requirements for the technical demo engineering team to create compelling demonstrations and POC’s based on customer specific scenarios.
• Achieving an expert level understanding of our customers' environments and their evolving requirements vis-a-vis our solutions and products so that you can facilitate the creation of new opportunities and drive longer retention
