Algolia is the retrieval intelligence layer that turns intent into trusted, decision-grade outcomes. Powering more than 1.7 trillion queries a year for over 18,000 customers with millisecond latency and 99.999% reliability, we are the recognized leader for Search and Product Discovery by top industry analyst firms. The Algolia platform turns a company's products, content, and business rules into data that humans, applications and AI agents can act upon. The result is trusted customer experiences with stronger conversions for measurable business impact.
 

At Algolia, we are passionate about helping developers & product teams connect their users with what matters most in milliseconds! Algolia provides the industry’s most powerful search and discovery SaaS platform, driving richer, more powerful engagement and success capabilities to over 17,000 companies. We are seeking passionate and industrious Solutions Engineers ready to join a hyper-growth business and market to help evangelise and drive technical success with our solutions.

We are looking for experienced, curious, and driven Solutions Engineers to help customers realise the full value of our platform in a fast-growing market.

This role is a critical part of Algolia’s go-to-market organisation, working closely with Sales and Solutions partners to drive revenue, customer adoption, and best practices. You will play a key role in helping prospects and customers evaluate Algolia, understand its technical capabilities, and successfully apply it to their use cases.

In this position, you will own the technical pre-sales relationship across opportunities and accounts. You will partner with Account Executives to demonstrate the product and underlying architecture, address technical and business objections, and deliver thoughtful, consultative solutions that result in a strong technical win and clear product fit.

You will act as both a deep technical expert and a trusted advisor. This means being equally comfortable presenting an engaging solution to a CTO, collaborating with product managers, or building prototypes and integrations directly with customer engineers using Algolia’s APIs.

  • Develop custom search applications leveraging the tools, frameworks, and partners of the Algolia ecosystem.
  • Distill and advocate customer interests, needs and product feedback in order to relay to Product and Engineering teams
  • Continuously learn and update skills and keep aware of industry trends in the Search and Discovery space, and contribute to thought leadership to make Algolia more accessible to the world.
  • Work with the Solution Architects and Customer Success teams on seamless transition to the post sales process to ensure highly successful onboarding
