What you will do

Our Solutions Engineers help the largest hotel groups, management companies and chains understand what our products can do for them and prove the return. You will lead that team globally and stay close to the customer by supporting AMER field sales directly.

You will join Revenue Excellence, which brings together Enablement, Solutions Engineering and Sales Automation. You will work closely with Sales, Account Management, Product and Engineering to deliver high-value, healthy-margin deals that make customers successful.

Lead the team

• Lead, coach and develop a global team of solutions engineers in AMER, EMEA and APAC. Set priorities, coverage and performance standards, and build the bench.

Win the largest deals

• Act as solutions lead for AMER field sales on enterprise groups, management companies and regional chains, including executive meetings and QBRs.

• Run discovery to understand business drivers, risks and technical requirements, and map our solutions to them with clear measures of ROI.
• Be the trusted advisor on data models, integrations, security and delivery, and tell a convincing story to executives.

Build the practice

• Own and evolve the Solutions Center so everyone at Lighthouse can easily request solutions engineer support.
• Partner with Sales and Product Marketing on sales decks and storytelling for Business Intelligence, Benchmark Insight and Parity Insight, and drive product-market fit for our more complex products.
