Workspace Sales Engineer

Join SADA as a Google Workspace Sales Engineer!

Your Mission 

As a Google Workspace Sales Engineer at SADA, you will work collaboratively with other architects and engineers to design, prototype, and scope the deployment of Google Workspace to an organization.

You are able to effectively architect these solutions that bring in additional partners such as Okta and AODocs.

You will work with engineering teams, customers, and sales teams to qualify potential engagements, craft robust proposals, and deliver Statements of Work (SOWs) that engineering teams can successfully execute.

You’re also hands-on, able to conduct experiments and build functioning prototypes that prove out ideas and build confidence in the solutions you advocate. 

You will be an established contributor within SADA and will develop a reputation with customers as well as the Google sales and professional services organizations for the quality of your work.

You will demonstrate repeated delivery of accurate SOWs and effort estimations.

You will also lead early-stage opportunity technical qualification calls, as well as lead client-facing technical discussions during the sales cycles. 

Pathway to Success 

# DrivePurposefulImpact: You are a rainmaker!

You are way out in front of our delivery organization, meeting with the spectrum of corporate and enterprise customers that need our consultative services.

You have your finger on the pulse of their technical needs and take pride in helping them solve their real-world problems on Google Workspace. 

You will be measured quarterly by a combination of (a) the accuracy of effort estimations of signed SOWs that you shepherd through the sales funnel, and (b) the level of customer satisfaction measured at the end of each engagement.

As you continue to execute successfully, we will build a customized development plan together that leads you through the solutions architecture or management growth tracks.
