The Solutions Associate will support our sales team as a core technical resource - helping drive the technical win by clearly communicating how TEAL’s connectivity and eSIM solutions address customer needs. You’ll work closely with Account Executives to run effective discovery, support demos and evaluations, and help customers move from questions to confidence.
You’ll also partner cross-functionally with Customer Support, Product, and Engineering by bringing structure to customer feedback, assisting with investigations, and helping ensure customer-impacting issues and requests are clearly captured and routed.
You’ll engage with innovative companies across industries—from EV charging and drones to smart metering and telematics—and help translate technical requirements into practical solutions.
The ideal candidate is a proactive problem-solver who can bridge customer technical teams and commercial goals. You should be comfortable learning quickly, communicating clearly, and moving between customer conversations, light technical troubleshooting, and internal coordination.
