Be a Contributor - What You’ll do

• Lead customer value discovery to uncover critical pains, desired outcomes, and decision criteria; translate these into measurable hypotheses, KPIs, and executive win-themes that guide the sales strategy
• Diagnose the customer’s current state and design the desired future state architecture, mapping Infoblox capabilities to quantified business outcomes, risk reduction, and time-to-value
• Build executive-ready ROI/TCO models and qualified business cases that articulate economic impact, cost of inaction, productivity gains, and operational risk mitigation
• Plan and execute PoV engagements with clear success criteria tied to outcomes; baseline current performance, instruction telemetry, and validate value hypotheses with agreed metrics
• Drive a mutual evaluation plan with the account team and champion, aligning to Meddicc/Meddpicc elements (Metrics, Economic Buyer, Decision Criteria/Process, Paper Process, Identified Pain, Champion, Competition)
• Present value narratives to technical and non-technical stakeholders, including C-level audiences, using clear storytelling that connects architecture choices to financial and operational results
• Differentiate against competitors using value-based messaging - emphasize measurable outcomes, total economic impact, and unique risk coverage rather than feature parity
• Collaborate on pricing and packaging anchored in delivered value; recommend right-sized scopes, phased value realization, and reference architectures that accelerate adoption
• Maintain rigorous SFDC hygiene and cadence: document value hypotheses, PoV success criteria, metrics status, economic buyer access, and next best actions throughout the cycle
• Capture validated outcomes and customer references; contribute quantified value stories, templates, ROI calculators, and playbook assets back to the field for reuse
• Leverage AI-enabled presales workflows across discovery, solutioning, and execution: account research, call note summarization, action-item extraction, competitive analysis, RFP/RFI drafting, demo/storyline generation, and PoV telemetry analysis tied to value metrics
• Build and maintain reusable AI prompt libraries, templates, and governed knowledge bases to ground outputs in approved content; continuously refine prompts for accuracy and tone
• Leverage AI-assisted insights to sharpen customer discovery, tailor value messaging, and improve technical and storytelling

Be Prepared - What You Bring

• Minimum 8+ years of experience in sales engineering or customer-facing presales technical presales role, preferably within a direct sales environment

• Proven experience designing and conducting PoV engagements with outcome-based success criteria and telemetry-driven valuation
• Working proficiency with value-based selling frameworks (eg. MEDDICC/MEDDPICC, Challenger, SPIN) including access to the economic buyer and clear definition of metrics and decision criteria
• Practical experience with AI tools in presales (eg. LLM copilots, prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation, summarization, translation, and data analysis) to accelerate discovery notes, RFP/RFI responses, demo storylines, competitive battlecards, and PoV telemetry analysis
• Experience applying AI to accelerate account preparation, competitive positioning, proposal development, and opportunity follow-through
• Strong discipline in using AI alongside Salesforce and established sales processes to support better execution, higher quality output, and improve productivity
• Comfortable operating in a dynamic, start-up environment, with a proactive and hands-on approach to problem-solving and cross-functional collaboration
