How We Work AI-First & Data-Driven: We make sure to leverage the latest tech (or build our own) to let our people put their brains to use where they matter most Insight-led discovery & deal shaping In control. As a self-financed startup, we make decisions, not investors. Ownership: We own our work, our wins, and our mistakes. It's how we grow and improve. Excellence: We don't settle for "good enough." Exceptional is the bar in everything we do. Transparency: What you see is what you get. Open communication, honest processes, and no surprises. Candour: Bold, honest conversations that inspire new ideas and solve problems. About the role We're hiring an Strategic Solutions Engineer (Presales) to shape and win enterprise ERP automation decisions: you reframe problems, quantify the cost of inaction, and prove value through tailored workshops and demos. Partnering with an AE, you own technical leadership, value articulation, and de-risking security/integration - building alignment across CFO/CIO-led buying committees. What You'll Own Insight-led discovery & deal shaping Practice insight selling: challenge the customer's initial framing, introduce a sharper point of view on where value is actually trapped (exceptions, approvals, master data, controls), and reframe urgency using cost-of-inaction. Lead discovery across CFO/CIO/Shared Services/Procurement to uncover operational bottlenecks and decision friction - and translate that into a crisp target-state narrative and mutual action plan. Solution design & technical leadership Architect a tailored solution: scope, rollout approach, integration pattern, security posture, and success criteria. Run deep dives with IT/security and articulate how blp works in enterprise environments (ERP digital twin, data synchronization, governance and controls). Demos, workshops & executive storytelling Deliver high-impact demos that map to customer workflows (P2P, AP, S2P) and prove outcomes - not features. Facilitate workshops that turn stakeholder skepticism into a tangible blueprint and path to value. Value engineering (business case support) Build a credible value narrative: labor productivity gains, cycle time reduction, compliance/control improvements, and stack simplification. Support champions and the AE with executive-ready business-case inputs, impact ranges, and rollout economics. Competitive positioning Position blp against point tools and fragmented stacks (OCR/IDP/workflow/process mining/RPA) with an "end-to-end + exceptions-first" narrative. Help the deal team land a clear "why now" anchored in operational risk, ERP program success, and enterprise scale requirements. What We're Looking For Must-haves 3-8+ years in Solutions Engineering / Presales / Solution Consulting / ERP process consulting (or equivalent in finance/procurement operations with strong customer-facing chops). Demonstrated ability to run insight-based discovery (Challenger-style): you can respectfully push back, quantify impact, and build conviction across a buying committee. Comfort with senior stakeholders (CFO/CIO/Head of Shared Services): you can lead without authority. Strong workshop facilitation + demo craft: story, structure, and objection handling. Ability to connect technical realities to business outcomes (FTE capacity, cycle time, controls, compliance risk, TCO). Strong plus SAP exposure (S/4, ECC, Public/Private Cloud) or multi-ERP environments. Finance/process knowledge: AP, invoice processing, S2P/P2P, exception handling, approvals, master data workflows. Experience competing against legacy vendors and "patchwork stacks." Language Fluent in English and German (or another major European language, depending on territory). You'll get A product that wins. blp's solution consistently outperforms competitors - your job is to open more doors. Uncapped earnings. High, realistic OTEs with uncapped commission. Real ownership.
