Solutions Engineering At Polar Analytics
Solutions Engineering at Polar Analytics sits at the heart of Tech, Sales and Custome Success. You'll be architecting the semantic layer that transforms raw commerce data into intelligent, actionable insights. As we scale from $3M to $9M+ ARR, you'll design proofs of concept that close deals fast, lead implementations that deliver value in weeks, and unlock new use cases that directly feed back into our product roadmap. This isn't just technical problem-solving—it's building the data foundation that helps indie DTC brands compete and grow faster than ever before.
Why This Role?
Own the semantic layer for commerce agents - Build the unified data model that turns raw Shopify, ad, and retention data into the language that AI agents understand, creating consistent metrics and business logic across every store and channel
End-to-end impact from pre-sale to expansion - Design compelling proofs of concept that accelerate our sales cycle, then lead implementations that hit time-to-value in weeks while identifying expansion opportunities
High-leverage, high-ownership environment - Write SQL, architect integrations, and sit shoulder-to-shoulder with revenue leaders where your technical decisions directly impact retention and LTV
Strategic seat at the table - Work at the critical intersection of data, product, and revenue where your insights shape both customer success and product development
What's the Scope?
Drive $1M ARR per quarter - Own the technical close for high-value deals through compelling demonstrations, custom proofs of concept, and seamless technical implementations
Launch successful features monthly - Collaborate with Product to translate customer needs into shipped features, using direct customer feedback to influence roadmap priorities
Build power user networks at top logos - Cultivate deep technical relationships with key stakeholders at enterprise accounts, turning them into advocates and expansion opportunities
Partner with the CS team on deal nurturing - Work closely with Customer Success to identify upsell opportunities, resolve technical challenges, and ensure long-term customer satisfaction
This Job is Made for You If:
You think in systems and code fluently - Strong technical foundation with ability to write SQL, architect integrations, and choose the right technology for each challenge
You thrive on direct customer interaction - Natural ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear business value while turning customer feedback into prioritized development work
You sprint but never ship half-baked - Bias toward action with unwavering commitment to quality, ensuring every implementation meets both timeline and excellence standards
You want strategic influence - Seeking a role where data, product, and revenue decisions intersect, with direct input on company direction and customer success
