Go-To-Market Engineer

Sent Telecommunications
Onsite New York, NY Posted about 1 month ago $130,000 - $170,000 yearly

TL;DR

Sent in a nutshell: they've built a smart pipe that routes business messages through the cheapest channel—SMS, WhatsApp, iMessage—cutting costs 90%. Fresh off a $3.5M seed round.

This seat's different: you're half‑engineer, half‑seller. Code up smart outbound campaigns Monday, run technical demos Tuesday, close enterprise deals Wednesday. No typical sales playbook here.

Daily beat: build automated prospecting tools, design ROI calculators, run technical discovery calls, and turn customer patterns into product insights. Python or JavaScript chops required.

Who fits: 3+ years mixing code with customer‑facing work; you've automated something gnarly before, can explain complex stuff simply, and don't wait for permission to fix what's broken.

The trade: $130‑180k plus real equity, full benefits, unlimited PTO—but it's full‑time in NYC, five days in office. You're building the plumbing for how every business will talk to customers tomorrow.
