Forward Deployed Architect (former SWE)
At Pylon, we're building the future of B2B Post Sales.
We’re building the all-in-one B2B post-sales support platform powered by conversational data and layered with intelligence to help our customers run their operations in real-time.
We’re backed by a16z, BCV, General Catalyst, Y Combinator.
Currently more than 1000 companies including Linear, Cognition (makers of Devin), Modal Labs, and Incident.io run their support and customer success workflows with Pylon. You'll also find us on the Enterprise Tech 30 List.
This is a fully in-person role; we do not offer remote or hybrid options.
What you'll do
Combine talking directly with customers with building solutions
We're looking for a former SWE who understands what it means to do something once, automate it, and never do it again
Migrate new customers off their old support system to Pylon
Within your first week, run customer migration meetings
Communicate directly with customers and become their main "problem-solver" as they navigate rebuilding their processes and data in Pylon
Become a deep product expert and guide customers to the right solution. The customer isn't always right and they often don't know what they want. It's up to you to teach them
Contribute to pre-sales calls as the be-all-end-all for potential solutions
Be an expert not only in Pylon, but also the systems we migrate from (Zendesk, Intercom, etc.)
Juggle many customers at once and drive them to completion.
Iteratively improve the migration process
Requirements
Located in (or will relocate to) San Francisco and excited about working in-person
