To make that happen, you’ll set the strategy, strengthen our technical sales motions, and develop the team that connects our customers, go-to-market organisation, partners, and product teams:
Build upon and own the global Solutions Engineering strategy, organisational design, and roadmap for the next stage of n8n’s growth.
Build a clear vision for how the organisation should evolve across mid-market, enterprise, partner, and post-sales motions.
Translate that vision into a practical sequence of priorities that balances immediate business needs with where n8n needs to be in the short-medium term future.
Design scalable and AI-native ways of working that increase the team’s impact without relying solely on additional headcount.
Establish differentiated playbooks for scaled mid-market engagements, complex enterprise sales cycles, strategic accounts, partner-led opportunities, and post-sales deployments.
Raise the quality of technical discovery, validation, pilots, and solution design so customers are ready to reach production successfully after signing.
Create repeatable one-to-many experiences that allow Solutions Engineers to focus their time on the highest-value and most technically complex opportunities.
Ensure partners and global systems integrators have the technical enablement, materials, and support they need to deliver successful customer outcomes.
Lead a global Solutions Engineering organisation of approximately 15 people (including 2 Team Leads) and prepare the team to scale significantly as n8n grows.
Coach and develop our existing frontline leaders, helping them become stronger people managers, technical leaders, and strategic business partners.
Define what great performance looks like across each Solutions Engineering motion and equip the team with the training, tools, and feedback needed to achieve it.
Stay close enough to the work to coach through complex engagements, remove obstacles, and help the team execute while the organisation continues to mature.
Represent Solutions Engineering as a senior member of the global sales leadership team, bringing a clear technical and customer perspective to strategic decisions.
Act as a key connection between go-to-market and Product, translating field insights into technically credible and actionable feedback.
Partner closely with Sales, Customer Success, Partnerships, Product, Product Marketing, and Engineering to improve the full customer lifecycle.
Help prioritise the capabilities required to make new products and features demonstrable, deployable, and production-ready for global enterprises.
🌐 Open-source experience: You have worked within an open-source or community-led company and understand how community adoption shapes enterprise growth.
🚀 Product-led growth: You have experience connecting a product-led motion with assisted, enterprise, and strategic sales motions.
🌍 Global leadership: You have managed distributed teams or supported customers across multiple regions and time zones.
