Founding Engineer Jobs in Rhode Island (NOW HIRING)

About the Role

We’re seeking a sharp, trusted, and highly autonomous Enterprise Solutions Engineer, Channel to help drive NinjaOne’s expansion into the enterprise market. This is a builder role—your chance to shape how we engage complex accounts, scale technical wins, and define what great looks like in enterprise pre-sales. You’ll own the full technical sales cycle—from discovery and architecture through proof-of-concept and implementation—while partnering closely with AEs to influence deal strategy and deliver real-world impact. You won’t just run demos—you’ll build the playbooks, tools, and repeatable processes that help us scale. If you’ve done this before in B2B SaaS, thrive in high-stakes environments, and want your work to directly shape the next chapter of NinjaOne’s growth, we’d love to hear from you.

Location - We are flexible on remote working from home, if you are located in the USA and reside in one of the following states - CT, FL, GA, ME, MA, NJ, NC, NY, OH, TN, & VA. 
Travel Requirements - ~50%, including strategic customer meetings, industry events, and team collaboration

What You’ll Be Doing

• Own the full pre-sales technical experience for Enterprise Partners, Channel, MSPs & Customers. This will include product demonstrations, architecture design, and key customer engagements to drive deal success.
• Represent NinjaOne at enterprise-facing industry events, conferences, and customer forums.
• Support the review and alignment of technical content within RFPs and RFIs without owning full proposal management.
• Partner with Training and Customer Success teams to accelerate time-to-value and ensure long-term adoption success.
• Serve as a strategic voice between Sales and Product—surfacing feedback, identifying feature gaps, and influencing roadmap direction.
• Build and maintain reusable technical assets including lab environments, demo flows, battlecards, and scripts to support a scalable AE-to-SE model.
• Collaborate closely with Account Executives and Sales Leadership to drive growth and align technical value to business goals.
• Help shape the future of the Enterprise SE function as a founding member of the team, contributing to playbooks, processes, and cross-functional alignment.
