Where You Come in

As a Senior Sales Engineer at Verve, you’ll be the trusted technical ambassador in every sales conversation - demonstrating our technology’s value directly to prospects, driving POCs, and enabling smooth transitions into integrations. You’ll collaborate with Sales, Product, and Engineering to win enterprise deals, architect solutions, and ensure our innovative ad-tech delivers client-focused outcomes.

This is more than answering technical questions - it’s about influencing outcomes. You’ll pair deep technical expertise with business insight to craft compelling solutions, guide customers through proof-of-concepts, and position Verve’s technology as the clear choice. Your work will directly impact revenue growth and long-term client success.

This role is based in New York City and follows a hybrid schedule, requiring 3 days per week in the office.

What You Will Do

  • Own the technical onboarding and integration of key strategic partners, including SDK implementation, data exchange, and performance optimization.

  • Act as the lead technical advisor during pre-sales engagements, helping design scalable solutions that align with client business objectives.

  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex technical issues across the ad delivery pipeline, including programmatic auction mechanics, real-time bidding (RTB), SDK performance, and API behavior.

  • Collaborate closely with Product and Engineering teams to translate client feedback into actionable product requirements and roadmap contributions.

  • Mentor junior team members and help establish scalable onboarding and support processes across the Solutions Engineering team.

  • Contribute to internal tooling and automation projects to improve efficiency, data analysis, and visibility into partner performance.

  • Continuously improve documentation and knowledge sharing across the team and organization.

  • Your hardest day will be divided between troubleshooting - 70% of working time, partners onboarding - 20%, knowledge sharing - 5%, and internal automation projects - 5%.

  • Collaborative mindset and comfort working with Sales, Product, and Engineering teams to drive business outcomes
