Role Overview:
As a Solutions Software Engineer, you will be a critical technical driver within the Pre-Sales team, blending high-level software engineering with strategic client consulting. This role is designed for an engineer who enjoys the "build" but wants to be closer to the business impact. You will own the "technical win" by configuring and modifying the Convr platform to meet the complex needs of commercial insurance prospects. You will utilize Python and Java to ensure our demo environments and client pilots are technically sound, while simultaneously partnering with Business Development to architect the future of "Frictionless Underwriting" for C-level executives.

- Test and debug programs during the pilot phase. Document technical observations from prospects to influence future product features and ensure a seamless handoff to the Customer Success and Implementation teams.
- Collaboration & Practice Building
- Partner with Business Development Executives to meet revenue goals by owning the functional and technical validation of the platform.
- Serve as a key member of the pre-sales engineering practice, building reusable code modules, best practice documentation, and technical collateral for the global team.
Role Requirements:
