This role is ideal for a mid-to-senior level technical professional who thrives at the intersection of sales and engineering. You should have at least 5 years of experience in Solutions Engineering or technical consulting, specifically within the enterprise SaaS space. A strong command of the WordPress ecosystem and PHP is essential, as you’ll be the primary architect for complex integrations for global brands like Disney and Meta. The compensation is highly competitive ($150k–$200k+ plus variable pay), but the real draw is the culture. This is a 100% remote, distributed position at a company famous for its "work from anywhere" philosophy and open vacation policy. You won’t just be answering RFPs; you’ll be a strategic partner building Proofs of Concept and defining the technical sales playbook for a world-class platform. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Can explain complex enterprise architectures to non-technical stakeholders with ease. * Enjoy building hands-on demos and technical prototypes to prove business value. * Have a deep understanding of content management, audience engagement, and PHP-based environments. * Are based in the US or Canada and looking for a high-autonomy, remote career.
