Presales Solution Consultant
On-site | Abu Dhabi
AppliedAI is at the forefront of redefining the future of work through cutting-edge AI solutions. We empower organizations by automating complex, document-heavy processes, ensuring unparalleled efficiency and accuracy. Our commitment to synergizing human intelligence with artificial intelligence helps our clients excel in highly regulated industries, including healthcare, finance, and insurance.
We are seeking a Presales Solution Consultant to act as the strategic bridge between our commercial goals and technical reality. In this role, you move beyond standard product demonstrations into the technical conscience of the sales cycle.
Sitting at the intersection of technical credibility and business value, you will be responsible for translating complex customer pain points into deliverable technical scopes. Your mission is to ensure we win high-value deals by validating platform fit, sizing complexity, and ensuring a flawless transition from the "promise" of sales to the "reality" of implementation.
Key Responsibilities:
1. Strategic Discovery & Technical Validation
- Lead deep-dive discovery sessions with IT, Operations, and Business stakeholders to map processes and uncover hidden requirements.
- Actively qualify (and disqualify) opportunities based on technical feasibility and alignment with our AI platform.
- Identify integration requirements, data flows, and edge cases that could impact delivery.
2. Value-Driven Proofs (Demos & PoCs)
- Prepare and deliver impactful product demonstrations that focus on speed-to-value and business outcomes rather than just feature checklists.
- Build and manage Proof of Concept (PoC) sessions to prove the platform’s ability to handle "messy" real-world enterprise data.
- Address technical objections from CTOs and Security teams with confidence and clarity.
