About the Role

Do you want to be part of an outstanding team driving Salesforce's success in the public sector and education industries? Do you have experience in the public sector, CRM, artificial intelligence, or digital transformation — combined with hands-on technical building skills? Join the Salesforce Solution Engineering team, where you'll play a pivotal role in driving the digital transformation of government and educational institutions. With a clear vision of how AI can remove barriers for citizens and students, you'll help streamline processes and enhance user experiences through the synergy of technology and human expertise. As an Account Solution Engineer, also known as a "Presales Consultant," "Sales Consultant," "Presales Engineer," "Sales Engineer," or "SE," you'll be a key player in the sales cycle, delivering thought leadership and owning solutions to enhance our customers' experience. This role benefits from a technical builder mindset: you don't just demo and design solutions — you can also prototype, configure, and validate real agentic and data-driven solutions. You'll collaborate with customers, account executives, product specialists, and partners to develop innovative solutions that connect public sector and educational organizations with their constituents in new ways. You'll translate the complex needs of public sector and educational entities into practical and impactful solutions, effectively communicating the value of Salesforce products like Public Sector Solutions, Education Cloud, and Agentforce — backed by the technical depth to prove feasibility, not just tell a story. This role offers the unique opportunity to engage across the entire customer lifecycle, leveraging your curiosity, creativity, and technical acumen to drive innovation in a collaborative, ever-evolving environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Clearly and confidently articulate the value and benefits of Salesforce — as a company and as a platform — to all levels of public sector and educational organizations, including public officials, academic leaders, IT managers, executives, and policy makers.
• Assess business requirements within public administrations and educational institutions, identify challenges, and propose solutions that address regulatory, operational, and innovation needs, highlighting return on investment.
• Manage the entire solution cycle, working closely with cross-functional teams (sales, consulting, delivery, partners) to ensure a cohesive and impactful proposal.
• Deliver tailored Salesforce demonstrations that reflect the unique processes of the organizations you serve, using storytelling and value positioning.
• Prepare and deliver presentations, respond to RFPs, and provide technical training and support to both customers and internal teams.
• Gather feedback from customers and collaborate with product development teams to continuously enhance our solutions.
• Monitor
