As a Sales Solutions Engineer at Vector Solutions, you will partner closely with our sales, proposal, product, and implementation teams to design compliant solutions, develop winning government proposals, and project manage the technical evaluation phase to ensure a seamless handoff. If you have a passion for presenting, a knack for public sector project management, and a desire to elevate the team around you, we want you on our side.

  • Be an Active Industry Ambassador: Represent Vector Solutions at government tradeshows and conferences. Go beyond basic booth support by actively engaging attendees, driving prospects to the booth, and conducting on-site technical meetings and demonstrations.
  • Ensure Client Success: Act as the technical project manager during the demonstration and evaluation phase, ensuring outcomes meet government client expectations before the final handoff to the implementation team.
  • Drive Account Expansion: Partner with existing clients to deeply understand their evolving needs, proactively identifying opportunities to introduce additional modules or products from our suite to solve their ongoing challenges.
  • Elevate the Team: Lead internal training initiatives for various teams, coaching them on product enablement, product updates, and technical processes.
  • Collaborate & Shape the Product: Work cross-functionally across departments, serving as a critical feedback loop for our product development team to ensure our technology solutions and future roadmap align perfectly with our clients' mission-critical goals.
  • Other duties as assigned.
