MuleSoft

Pre-Sales Solutions Consultant

About the Team:

The Solutions Consulting team at MuleSoft is transforming how we drive Anypoint Platform deals by executing the MuleSoft vision of API-Led Connectivity with our prospects throughout the sales cycle.  By leading and challenging our prospects and customers to a provocative point of view on connectivity we define solutions to drive business outcomes and build industry and business thought leadership.

A great technical pre-sales organization will scale when it has a strategy that resonates strongly with the market and when it consistently delivers that strategy in every customer interaction with a strong link to the business outcomes of each prospect. Delivering this approach requires both deep customer intimacy with the technical teams from the CIO to the teams performing the integrations and a deep understanding of where the prospect is looking to take the business.  You are the unique person who can bridge these worlds and map the business drivers and outcomes onto an integration architecture and deployment process.  You will be responsible for making sure our connectivity strategy achieves resonance.
