About The Position

Statista is a fast-growing data-as-a-service provider helping businesses access high-quality business data via a robust REST API. Our platform is trusted by many leading companies in their field to power intelligent decisions, automation, and AI applications. We are now expanding our sales team with a technically skilled API Consultant to help customers succeed from day one.

Requirements

A Genuine Love of Pitching: Presenting energizes you rather than drains you — you've delivered demos or pitches before and seek out more. (If this doesn't describe you, this role won't be a good fit — and that's okay.)
Builder & Storyteller: You prototype agents, workflows, and prompts yourself, hands-on, and know how to turn technical capability into a business value narrative with maximum "wow."
API & Integration Experience: Background with API solutions, data integrations, or developer tools — comfortable with REST APIs, JSON, and authentication methods (OAuth, API keys).
Customer-Facing Technical Experience: Prior role as Sales Engineer, Solutions Engineer, Developer Advocate, Technical Consultant, or pre-sales-oriented CS, with proven success winning over customers.
Analytical & Communicative: Comfortable using product data and health scores to drive decisions, and able to explain technical concepts in a simple, engaging way to technical and non-technical stakeholders alike.
Problem-Solver: Quick to identify and resolve adoption blockers and guide customers through technical challenges.

Responsibilities

Deliver compelling pitches and live demos of Statista Connect to prospects and customers, from analysts to C-level.
Independently build and iterate on demo agents, prompts, and workflows tailored to each customer's use case — and use them to create genuine excitement and "I need this" moments in every meeting.
Guide customers from initial setup to advanced use cases with tailored prompts, agents, onboarding flows, documentation, and tutorials — carrying the excitement from the pitch through to daily usage.
Use product usage data, API analytics, and customer health scores to spot adoption blockers and expansion opportunities, and act on them with proactive guidance, lifecycle outreach, and new pitch angles.
Ensure smooth API integrations, resolve blockers quickly, document best practices, and collaborate with engineering on technical challenges.
Identify upsell and expansion opportunities and support sales teams with demos and technical storytelling in renewal and growth conversations.
Share insights from pitches, demos, and usage data with product and engineering to sharpen the pitch, refine demo agents, and shape the roadmap.
