About

About the Opportunity At Klaviyo, the Sales team prides themselves on being marketing and product experts. While most companies hire pre-sales Solutions Engineers to just give demos, fill out questionnaires, and only explain setups, that makes us yawn.
We're looking for a Lead Solutions Engineer who brings deep technical mastery, strategic thinking, and the ability to own the most complex, high-stakes Large-Enterprise deals. This is a high-impact individual contributor role for someone who gets energized by ambiguity, rolls up their sleeves to master our product at a molecular level, and uses AI and automation to punch above their weight.
As an L3 Lead SE, you'll be a trusted advisor to both customers and our sales organization - leading technical strategy in 6-7 figure deals, owning solution design, and setting the standard for SE excellence through your work
What We Do as Solutions Engineers We're technical sellers who drive revenue by winning complex Enterprise deals. Our job is to lead the technical win - building champions, proving value, and ensuring prospects choose Klaviyo over the competition. We work directly with customers to architect solutions that integrate seamlessly into their tech stacks, taking a consultant-first approach that builds confidence and secures technical buy-in.
Beyond closing deals, we use customer engagements as opportunities to prototype and ship improvements to Klaviyo. Recent team projects include: AI-powered demo data generators, a public Chrome extension for troubleshooting API calls, web SDK injectors, and templatized mobile apps for showcasing our SDK capabilities.
If you're a creator excited by winning high-stakes deals, prototyping technical solutions, and driving strategic revenue outcomes - this could be for you.
How You'll Make a Difference Lead the Technical Win in High-Stakes, Complex Deals
Own technical strategy for the most complex Enterprise opportunities - navigating multi-layered stakeholder environments, competitive pressures, and sophisticated buying processes with minimal oversight
Drive advanced technical discovery, uncovering nuanced pain points and proactively identifying differentiation opportunities
Host technical workshops aligning solutions to business outcomes with executive presence and strategic communication
Architect and execute Proof of Value plans that achieve technical selection over competition
Partner with AEs on deal strategy, bringing competitive intelligence and industry expertise to influence outcomes
Bring Subject Matter Expertise and Industry Leadership
Serve as a domain expert in marketing technology, CDPs, AI-driven personalization, analytics, and eCommerce
Act as go-to resource for competitive and industry landscape questions
Build strong R&D relationships, actively collaborating to drive positive outcomes and shape Klaviyo's roadmap
Contribute high-impact content to the SA Learning Library and mentor peers through example
Operate with Deep Technical Mastery and Innovation
Become a complete expert in Klaviyo's platform from data pipelines and integration codebases to technical tradeoffs between implementations
Develop broad, advanced familiarity with web development, APIs, cloud computing, and software development practices - confidently coaching experienced engineers on complex solutions
Leverage AI tools and automation to scale your impact and deliver better customer outcomes
Prototype solutions and build proof-of-concepts that demonstrate Klaviyo's differentiation
Who You Are Required:
7+ years in Solutions Engineering or Pre-Sales - with 3+ years leading technical strategy in high-complexity Enterprise deals (6-7 figures) with minimal oversight
5+ years across modern development stacks: Python, JavaScript frameworks (Node.js, React), RESTful APIs, SQL, mobile development exposure
Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools (Codex, Claude Code) and emerging patterns like MCP
Strong domain knowledge in marketing automation, CDPs, eCommerce systems, analytics, or data engineering
Advanced discovery and requirements gathering skills - navigating multi-layered stakeholder environments
Executive presence and exceptional communication - impressing prospects from executive to developer level
Demonstrated ability to handle challenging conversations, manage objections, and deliver strategic insights
What Sets You Apart:
You've used AI to scale effectiveness - automation, research, solution design, or development
You bring deep competitive intelligence and know the landscape intimately
You've built strong R&D relationships and drive outcomes through influence without authority
You roll up your sleeves - you dig in, figure it out, and become the expert
You've elevated team performance through your example and enablement contributions
You thrive in ambiguity and fast-moving environments
