Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
Solutions Engineering roles remain a cornerstone function in SaaS because they translate product capability into real-world outcomes across the customer lifecycle. This listing stands out for its explicit split between pre-sales enablement and post-sales implementation, signalling a SaaS business that relies on technical credibility to support adoption and retention. The hybrid setup in Sydney also suggests close alignment with commercial teams while staying connected to customer environments.
From a SaaS career perspective, the remit offers repeated exposure to the mechanics that drive subscription businesses: onboarding, time-to-value, and ongoing support motions. The work spans technical discovery, implementation guidance, and structured troubleshooting, creating a practical view of how product, engineering, and go-to-market teams interact when customer needs surface. Experience building knowledge artifacts and refining consulting processes is also broadly transferable across SaaS organisations that formalise delivery at scale.
This role tends to suit professionals who like operating at the boundary between customer conversations and hands-on technical problem solving. It will appeal to those who are comfortable context-switching between demos, implementation work, and issue triage, and who value clear communication as much as technical depth. Candidates looking to deepen SaaS domain experience while staying close to revenue and retention levers should find the scope aligned.
