Solutions Engineer

As a Solutions Engineer at Column, you'll partner with tech-forward companies to build financial products and solutions using Column's APIs. This is a highly cross-functional role: you'll work closely with engineering, business, operations, legal, and compliance teams to support customer implementations and expand customer activity on Column-directly contributing to the growth of our business.

This role is more technically demanding than the average Solutions Engineering position. You'll need to develop a deep understanding of our platform and APIs to serve as a trusted technical partner to customers. Beyond customer implementation, you'll gather and synthesize customer feedback, identify product gaps, and help shape new product requirements, working directly with our engineering team to drive product development.

You'll also be responsible for building internal tools and automation to improve our team's operational efficiency. You will have significant opportunities to expand your scope and take on additional responsibility as you grow.

This role is based in our Presidio office in San Francisco and follows a four-day, in-person schedule. You will report to Column's Head of Solution Engineering.
