[Hiring] Internal Consultant, Solutions Engineering @Factored

Role Description

We are looking for a driven and highly proactive Internal Consultant to help stand up our project-based Solutions Engineering practice. In this role you will be the connective tissue between client needs, technical design, and repeatable delivery, where you will be turning ambiguous opportunities into well-scoped, well-priced engagements, and building the templates, kits, and workflows that let the team deliver them consistently.

• Lead the development of project proposals end-to-end: translating client needs and architect input into clear, structured, well-scoped engagements.
• Draft the narrative, assemble estimates and assumptions, and co-own final proposals with solutions leadership.
• Partner with solutions architects and client stakeholders to define project scope, deliverables, boundaries, and assumptions.
• Document scope guardrails and change-control triggers, ensuring every engagement is defined clearly before it starts.
• Build and continuously improve the team's service delivery kits such as reusable templates, estimation models, SOW/engagement frameworks, playbooks, and scoping checklists.
• Partner with internal technical builders to implement workflow automation opportunities across Solutions Engineering.
• Support the Partnerships team by streamlining shared workflows, documentation, and handoffs between partnerships-sourced opportunities and the delivery pipeline.
• Act as a proactive problem-solver across the practice: surfacing gaps, proposing structure where none exists, and moving work forward without waiting to be asked.
• Analyze scoping accuracy and engagement outcomes over time, feeding insights back into estimation models and delivery kits.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's in Business, Engineering, or a related field; consulting, pre-sales, or solutions background is a strong plus.
• 4–7 years of experience in management consulting, pre-sales/solutions, engagement management, or project delivery, ideally within a technology, AI/data, or professional-services environment.
• Demonstrated experience writing proposals, SOWs, or scoping documents (experience with fixed-price engagements is a significant plus).
• Comfort partnering with technical stakeholders (architects, engineers) and translating fluidly between business and technical language.
• Exceptional written communication: you can turn a messy discovery conversation into a crisp, persuasive, well-structured document.
• A strong process and operations mindset, with a track record of building templates, playbooks, or repeatable systems.
• Working familiarity with workflow automation tools (e.g., Zapier, Make, n8n) and with project/collaboration tools (Jira, Asana, Monday.com, Notion).
• An analytical, numbers-comfortable approach to estimation, scoping, and simple ROI/margin reasoning.
• High degree of self-direction, ownership, and comfort operating in ambiguity within a newly forming team.
• Professional-level fluency in English with impeccable written and verbal communication skills (C1).

Benefits

• Ownership through equity participation.
• Annual company retreat.
• Education bonus for continuous learning.
• Company-wide winter break.
• Paid time off.
• Optional in-person events and meetups.
• Tailored career roadmaps.
• High-performance culture.
