We’re on a mission to democratize AI by building the definitive AI data development platform. The AI landscape has gone through incredible change between 2016, when Snorkel started as a research project in the Stanford AI Lab, to the generative AI breakthroughs of today. But one thing has remained constant: the data you use to build AI is the key to achieving differentiation, high performance, and production-ready systems. We work with some of the world’s largest organizations to empower scientists, engineers, financial experts, product creators, journalists, and more to build custom AI with their data faster than ever before. Excited to help us redefine how AI is built? Apply to be the newest Snorkeler!
Snorkel AI is enabling a paradigm shift in ML development by helping organizations take a programmatic approach to machine learning application development. In support of our growth, we are recruiting a high caliber founding team of ML solution engineers to join our fast growing GTM team. In this role, you will act as a trusted advisor to prospective and existing customers. You will also work directly with our co-founding team, sales team, product team and ML Engineering team to provide value-based evaluation scenarios including demonstrations, labs, and POVs, to aid in closing business. You will sit at the intersection of product, sales and engineering and will work with the broader team to continue building Snorkel Flow into the leading platform for data-first AI.
Snorkel is growing our global pre-sales leadership team to support growth of our business in North America and Europe. We are searching for a high caliber pre-sales leader to lead and build a highly skilled team of Machine Learning Solution Engineers (MLSEs) in the west/east. In this role, you will lead a team of customer facing machine learning solution engineers working directly with our global field engineering leader, co-founding team, sales team, product team, and engineering team. You will be responsible for recruiting, training, enabling, upskilling and evolving this incredibly gifted team of ML professionals into a team of highly empathetic, curious, and high performing ML Pre-sales professionals to work alongside our high caliber sales team.
This team will work along side our prospects and customers (Fortune 500) to help address challenges they face as they look to develop and deliver generative systems and use cases in production. Deep technical experience along with deep GTM (Pre-sales) experience implementing a value centric sales process (with MEDDPICC) will be required for this role.
The MLSE team led by you will be responsible for:
• Educating our clients on a new data centric approach to delivering AI applications and generative systems powered by Snorkel. This data centric approach will require re-framing, objection handling, and conviction in an approach that is very much a paradigm shift for many of the largest enterprise organizations in the world
• Educating on Snorkels unique differentiation & capabilities while building strong technical champions
• Documenting detailed PoV execution plans with success criteria aligned with Snorkel differentiated capabilities
• Detailed technical discovery to understand current state, future state, pain points, desired outcomes, metrics, and scope.
• Ensure we align the client to the right predictive and generative use cases ideally suited for the Snorkel platform
• Teasing out relevant pain points & challenges from the client while helping the client understand the implication of the pain is no action is taken or alternative solutions are considered. Ensure all pain points have been investigated thoroughly and have corresponding metrics
• Seek to understand the desired future state ML pipeline with improved automation, scale, and collaboration. Highlight notable metrics & impact areas for improvement
• Understand the current state end to end ML pipeline, workflow, and process
• Create elegant current state & future state design workflows to ensure alignment around the end to end current state process as it exists today and a future state redesigned supported by Snorkel Main Responsibilities
• Build and lead a team of world-class machine learning solution engineers who serve as our first-line expert educators on Snorkel Flow while also being responsible for a process and value-aligned technical evaluation
• Teach, train, enable and upskill our team of incredibly talented machine learning engineers into a team of high caliber technical sellers aligned with our value centric sales playbook & process
• Support a team focused on execution of all stages of the sales process (discovery, current state/future state process mapping, business case quantification, PoV setup & execution)
• Refresh and redesign entire demo catalog. Establish roadmap and timeline for new demo assets
• Act as a trusted advisor on AI; enable customers to solve complex data science problems using Snorkel Flow – including problem framing, data preparation, scripting, model building, model deployment, model management, and output consumption
• Help connect a customer's specific business problems and pain points to Snorkel’s highly differentiated programmatic approach to labeling data and ML application development while quantifying the business value.
• Act as a player/coach working with your team to develop and deliver compelling presentations to customers and prospects
• Enable a team of field experts on the Snorkel Flow platform
• Coordinate cross-functional, dotted-line resources to achieve your team’s goals while maintaining a close working relationship with our co-founders, product, engineering, sales, and marketing teams
• Provide guidance to revenue leaders on sales strategy and product obstacles/gaps, and represent the team's needs to executive staff
• Interpret complex problems, create simple solutions, and collaborate closely with prospects, channel partners, and our sales team to deliver winning solutions
• Innovate and implement strategies that will uplevel your team’s skills
Preferred Qualifications
• 7+ years of industry experience in a pre-sales or consulting capacity with 2+ years of direct line management experience (hiring, training, and retaining top talent)
• Industry expertise within machine learning, business intelligence, data analytics. Expertise in cloud computing, and/or SaaS is also important
• Experience building, and evolving pre-sales playbooks based on Force Management Command of the Message (CoM) Value Selling Framework.
• Experience training, teaching non customer facing engineers how to execute a pre-sales value selling process using CoM
• Fluency with scripting in Python and common ML libraries
• Experience with all stages of production ML pipelines, from problem framing and data preparation to model deployment and monitoring (bonus)
• Hands-on experience building and implementing machine learning models (bonus)
• Experience collaborating with business stakeholders to ensure that machine learning solutions deliver successfully on business outcomes
• Outstanding presentation skills to both technical and executive audiences, whether impromptu on a whiteboard or using slides and demos
• Ability to connect a customer's specific business problems and pain points to differentiated product capabilities resulting in clear tangible business benefits or outcomes
• University degree in computer science, engineering, applied mathematics, or a related field, or equivalent experience
