As we scale across a growing portfolio of media and publishing partners, we're hiring a Senior Partner Solutions Engineer to own the technical implementation and operational success of our partner ecosystem.\nThis role owns technical onboarding, content ingestion, widget configuration, issue triage, and post-launch technical support. You'll ensure partners launch successfully, remain technically healthy, and continuously deliver the best possible AI answer experience for readers through configuration, prompt tuning, relevance testing and ongoing optimization.\nThis is both a backfill and an investment in a critical function. The previous owner of this role was the invisible glue between partners and Engineering, managing partner-specific configurations, technical troubleshooting, documentation, and the operational processes that kept implementations running smoothly. We're looking for someone who can build on that foundation and help scale it.\nThe ideal candidate doesn't need to write code, but they are technical enough to diagnose configuration issues, navigate engineering conversations, and write clear, reproducible bug reports. Just as importantly, they're partner-oriented enough to communicate complex technical concepts simply, build trust with partners, and deliver an exceptional partner implementation experience.\nAs an early member of the Partner Solutions function, you'll help define the processes, tooling, and best practices that enable ProRata to scale its partner operations.

maintain strong SLAs so that partners never feel issues are falling through the cracks\n\nServe as the technical liaison between partners and Engineering to resolve implementation and configuration issues\n\nProactively spot-check partner configurations after console updates to catch regressions before partners notice\n\nPartner Optimization\nEvaluate and optimize AI answer quality-including relevance, tone, formatting, suggested questions, and partner-specific behavior-to ensure each partner delivers the best possible reader experience, and recommend configuration improvements accordingly\n\nCollaborate with Data & Operations and Strategic Partnerships on periodic partner audits to identify configuration gaps, engagement trends, and optimization opportunities\n\nWork directly with partners to implement configuration changes that improve engagement performance\n\nProcess & Documentation\nBuild and maintain internal sources of truth for partners’ onboarding statuses and configurations, intended for project tracking and cross-functional visibility\n\nMaintain onboarding materials: implementation guide, partner-facing playbook, and product menu (what’s available, how to configure it)\n\nDocument partner configurations, implementation decisions, and troubleshooting procedures to improve consistency and scalability\n\nCross-Functional Collaboration\nBecome the internal subject matter expert on partner implementations, routing issues to the appropriate teams and sharing implementation knowledge across Partnerships, Product, Design and Engineering\n\nIdentify recurring implementation challenges and technical pain points, partnering with Product, Design and Engineering to improve the platform and reduce future support burden\n\nCollaborate with Engineering on console feature rollouts, ensuring partner configs are preserved\n\nWhat We’re Looking For\nMust-Have\nTechnical fluency: comfortable navigating APIs, interpreting console logs, validating widget implementations, understanding embed code, and triaging bugs independently before escalating to Engineering\n\nBasic understanding of generative AI and large language models (LLMs), including how prompting, context, and configuration influence AI-generated outputs\n\nStrong partner-facing communication: can write clear, professional partner emails and run partner calls independently\n\nHighly organized with strong SLA discipline (partners notice when things slip)\n\nAbility to work autonomously and manage multiple partner issues simultaneously\n\nEast Coast or Central hours strongly preferred (EU partner coverage)\n\nNice-to-Have\nExperience in a Solutions Engineer, Implementation Engineer, Technical Account Manager, Product Support, or Forward Deployed Engineer role at a B2B SaaS or media tech company\n\nFamiliarity with CMS platforms (WordPress, WordPress VIP) and web publishing workflows\n\nExperience with content ingestion pipelines, structured data, or modern web publishing systems\n\nExperience working with AI-powered products, including prompt tuning or configuring AI-generated outputs\n\nWhat We Offer\nOpportunity to work at the forefront of AI technology\n\nCollaborative and innovative work environment\n\nCompetitive salary and benefits package\n\nProfessional development and growth opportunities\n\nChance to make a significant impact on the company's success\n\nEqual Employment Opportunity\nProRata is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
