AI in this role
Hex's user base is continuing to grow rapidly. We are hiring a Sales Engineer to partner with potential customers to support their Hex evaluations.
About the role
Hex is redefining how teams work with data - combining notebooks, apps, BI, and AI-native workflows into a single collaborative analytics platform. Companies like Anthropic, Cursor, and Brex rely on Hex as a core part of how their data teams operate.
We’re at an exciting stage of growth. Hex is scaling rapidly, with strong momentum in the mid-market and SMB segments. This is a high-impact moment to join: our go-to-market motion is accelerating, our AI capabilities are fundamentally changing data work, and Sales Engineers play a central role in shaping how we win. In this segment, our deals move quickly and there’s a new challenge, competitor, or product feature for you to learn every day!
As a Mid-Market SE, you will leverage your product, ecosystem, and technical expertise to shape how our potential customers evaluate and adopt Hex. You will partner closely with the Sales team to help prospects understand the challenges in their current state, connect Hex’s value to those challenges, own the technical evaluation, and set them up for long-term success as a customer. This is a consultative, highly technical position where you’ll be hands-on with prospects, influence deal strategy, and inform product direction.

What you will do
- Serve as a trusted technical advisor to data teams & leaders (think: Data Scientists, Analysts, Data Platform Leads, etc.) and build strong relationships to help them get the most out of Hex during their evaluations
- Own the technical sales cycle and work with end users throughout the Sales cycle from discovery and product demos through trials, and proofs of concept
- Partner closely with Account Executives to develop opportunity-level strategy, execute evaluations, and share feedback to improve your partnership
- Inform the product roadmap by synthesizing product feedback from prospects to share with internal Engineering & Product teams
- Project manage the architecture, security, and technical reviews that prospects require
- Develop content to support users who are a part of evaluations ie. demo projects, documentation, videos, etc.
- As needed, travel to customer on-sites and marketing events to deliver demos and build strong customer relationships
Who you might be
You might be a fit for this role if you have:
- 4+ years of professional work experience
- 2+ years in a Sales Engineer, Solutions Engineer, or similar customer-facing technical role
- Experience working with Mid Market customers (250-2500 employees)
- Experience with land POC/Technical Sales Motions
- Familiarity with data science tooling and workflows, including SQL, and BI tools (Bonus points if you have spent lots of time in notebooks, SQL IDEs, or app-building frameworks.)
- A strong track record of talking to customers - from IC users to senior stakeholders - and solving their problems
- You're an excellent communicator who builds empathy, shares feedback, and grows successful relationships with internal and external stakeholders
- A generalist technical skillset: you don't need a CS degree, but should have a passion and interest for technology and be a creative problem solver
- Experience or interest in working in an early-stage startup environment

Skills and AI tools this role asks for
Questions you could be asked
- What's a project where you used Anthropic hands-on?
- Walk me through how you've used Cursor in your day-to-day work.
- Describe a typical day in a role like this one: which parts run through AI directly?
- If you removed AI from this role, what would be left, and how do you decide what still needs a human?
Adapt your resume
- List these exact terms on your resume: Anthropic and Cursor. An applicant tracking system matches the wording, not the idea.
- Attach one line of real, concrete experience to at least one of them — a tool named with nothing behind it rarely survives a human read.
- Show where AI is part of your daily process, not a one-off project — this role expects it to be a running habit.
