About the role
Sales Engineer responsible for the technical leadership in pursuing US government–related opportunities, translating agency missions and constraints into credible AI solutions, and enabling production deployments.
Responsibilities
- Travel with GTM teams to agency sites across the US, serving as the technical lead in pursuit of new government business
- Run discovery with agency leaders, program offices, and technical staff to map mission workflows, data landscapes, and constraints — then translate them into actionable solution designs
- Build and deliver compelling demos, proofs of concept, and technical proposals tailored to each agency's real mission problems
- Own the technical narrative through the deal cycle: solution architecture, security and compliance requirements (FedRAMP, ATO processes, data governance), integration scoping, and pilot success criteria
- Support capture and proposal efforts with technical volumes, responses to RFIs/RFPs, and architecture documentation
- Partner with Deployed Engineering to ensure what we sell is what we ship — and that pilots convert to long-term production deployments
- Feed customer insight back into product: what's blocking deals, what's resonating with agencies, and where the next mission opportunities are
- Help build the government sales engineering playbook from the ground up — demo environments, technical collateral, and repeatable POC frameworks
Qualifications
- 5+ years in sales engineering, solutions architecture, forward-deployed engineering, or a similar customer-facing technical role
- Experience selling into the US public sector — federal, state, or local — with working knowledge of government procurement, contract vehicles, and security/compliance frameworks (FedRAMP, IL levels, ATO)
- Technical depth to be credible with agency engineers and CIOs: AI/ML systems, APIs, data integration, and government cloud environments
- Hands-on ability to build demos, script prototypes, or debug a POC without waiting on others
- Strong communication skills to distill complex AI capabilities into clear mission value for agency executives and program operators
- Willingness to travel extensively across the US — regular travel (~50%) to government partners and Brain Co. offices
