Whether it’s getting more out of data providers, integrating seamlessly with CRMs, or unlocking new use cases with Claygent, solutions engineering ensures every POC is high-quality, accurate, and built to win. Sitting within the GTM org, Solutions Engineers partner closely with GTM Engineers (GTMEs) to field technical questions, troubleshoot complex challenges, and build creative, high-impact solutions that drive revenue.
