You will experience these qualities of passion, pride and aspiration in many ways — from a rich set of career development programs to support of community service projects to social events that foster fun and relationship building across our global community.

The Role

As a Solution Consultant for Geological Modeling (as part of AspenTech Subsurface Science and Engineering software suite) , you will partner with AspenTech sales teams during the sales cycle to lead in the consultative discovery process with customers; craft a vision and roadmap of a solution that addresses customer requirements; identify differentiated value capture potential; and design an implementation/sustainment program for that solution. This involves maintaining a keen understanding of AspenTech’s product strategy; our value enablers; the execution capabilities of our professional services team and those of our partners; and of the sales pipeline to drive opportunities where AspenTech solutions can bring significant business value to our customers and to AspenTech.

The Solution Consultant is responsible for delivering high quality solutions and business outcomes based on existing AspenTech products. Demonstrating deep knowledge of the solutions and offerings, capable of contributing to the design of a complete solution across the entire lifecycle of a project - from pre-sales through design and delivery of the solution - the Solution Consultant drives transformational results and realizes business strategy for AspenTech customers. In this role you will be primarily working with the Geological Modeling suites from AspenTech – SKUA and RMS.
