As enterprises prepare to deploy thousands of agents across business-critical use cases, Monte Carlo provides the reliability infrastructure to support them along this AI transformation, from human-guided agents to fully autonomous operations. Founded in 2019 and backed by leading investors, Monte Carlo empowers data and AI teams to ship trusted AI at scale. Learn more at montecarlo.ai\nThe Opportunity\nThe largest US enterprises are deploying agents into production right now - and discovering that trust, reliability, and observability are the difference between a pilot and a platform.\nWe're looking for a sales engineer who has lived that reality and can help our strategic customers navigate it. You'll own the technical win inside strategic US accounts, partnered directly with Account Executives, and working fully remote.\nWhat You'll Do\nRun technical sales cycles end to end. Own discovery, solution design, demos, POV execution, and technical close for opportunities within strategic US enterprises. Partner with Account Executives on commercial strategy; drive the technical win independently.\n\nSell into the agentic stack. Our customers are deploying agents on Databricks, Snowflake, and their own platforms. You'll help them understand how to observe, trust, and improve those systems - from the data pipelines feeding agents, to the context they retrieve, the decisions they make, and the outputs they produce.\n\nDrive POVs that convert. Design proofs of value with agreed success criteria, manage the evaluation, and deliver results that remove technical objections and accelerate the commercial close.\n\nBuild technical champions. Identify and develop the advocates inside each account who will carry Monte Carlo into the next budget cycle, platform decision, or executive review. Run briefings, workshops, and architecture reviews that position our platform as infrastructure.\n\nBring a technical point of view. Understand each customer's data and AI architecture deeply - where agents run, how they're instrumented, and where reliability breaks down. Bring that perspective to every account plan and QBR.\n\nWhat We're Looking For\nHands-on experience with enterprise AI and agent deployments. You've deployed agents in enterprise organizations - or worked closely enough with teams that do to understand the architecture, the failure modes, and the operational reality. You know what it takes to get an agent from demo to production.\n\nFluency in AI observability concepts. Traces, spans, evaluations, instrumentation - these are working vocabulary, not buzzwords. Experience with OpenTelemetry is highly prized, as is exposure to Databricks Genie, Snowflake Cortex, or similar enterprise AI platforms.\n\n3+ years in pre-sales, solutions engineering, or strategic technical account management within B2B AI-first companies and SaaS organizations, with meaningful experience in enterprise accounts. You've navigated procurement, infosec reviews, and multi-stakeholder buying committees.\n\nDomain background in data, observability, agent trust, or agent-first products. You've worked in one of these, not next to one.\n\nEqual parts technical and business focused. You can whiteboard an agent architecture and hold a conversation with a VP of Data & AI about ROI and competitive positioning. Credible with engineers, effective with executives.\n\nSelf-directed and accountable. A lean team with high-value accounts. You prioritize your own time, know when to escalate, and know when to push back.\n\nStrong communicator across seniority levels. Equally comfortable in a technical deep-dive with a platform engineer and presenting a business case to a C-minus-1.\n\nPreferred, Not Required\nModern data stack experience: Snowflake, Databricks, dbt, Airflow, BigQuery, or similar. Data observability or data quality experience is a plus.\n\nExperience growing existing enterprise accounts - expansion, upsell, or land-and-expand motions.\n\nFamiliarity with MEDDPICC, Command of the Message, or similar sales qualification and value frameworks.\n\nExperience selling into enterprises across multiple countries and regulatory environments.\n\nHands-on prototyping during a sales cycle.\n\nHow We'll Measure Success\nTechnical win rate on POVs. The POVs you run should convert. You set agreed success criteria upfront and deliver against them.\n\nTechnical execution against pipeline. Every opportunity properly scoped, proven, and technically closed.\n\nRevenue growth. Closed commitments should translate into growing consumption over time, and your technical work sets that trajectory.\n\nThis Is Not For You If\nYour background is post-sales or implementation only, without having carried a technical win inside a live deal\n\nYou get handed qualified opportunities and run the demo, rather than owning discovery yourself\n\nYou can't describe a real agent deployment - its architecture, how it was instrumented, or how it failed\n\nYour enterprise experience stops at mid-market, without procurement, infosec review, or multi-stakeholder buying committees\n\nWhy Monte Carlo\nWe created the data observability category, and we're doing it again with agent trust - you'll build where the market is forming, not where it's settled\n\nSeries D, $236M raised, backed by Accel, Redpoint, Notable Capital, ICONIQ Growth, and Salesforce Ventures\n\nCustomers include HubSpot, Fox, Nasdaq, Toast, and Mercado Libre - your work ships to enterprises with real stakes\n\nSnowflake Partner of the Year and a verified connector in Anthropic's Claude AI directory\n\nRemote-first by design since day one, and recognized as a Best Workplace for it\n\nCompetitive compensation, equity, and a remote-first environment.\n\nCome As You Are\nEquality is a core tenet of Monte Carlo's culture. We are committed to building an inclusive global team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, beliefs, and experiences.\nMonte Carlo is an equal-opportunity employer.
