• Support discovery conversations to identify pain points and unpack complex research workflows.
• Translate customer challenges into clear, high‑impact use cases.
• Deliver compelling, customized demos tailored to each customer’s workflow, challenges, and goals.
• Own the “tech win” by driving alignment across the customer’s buying committee.
• Serve as the product expert-explaining capabilities, value, limitations, and best‑practice approaches.
• Scope, plan, and execute customer evaluations, including research design, recruiting, fielding, and analysis support.
• Partner with prospects to create a clear roadmap for onboarding, adoption, and long‑term success.
• Collaborate with Marketing to develop presales collateral, case studies, and thought‑leadership materials.
• Provide structured feedback to Product, Research, and Customer Success based on customer insights.
• Participate in conferences, customer onsites, and company events (approx. 25% travel).
• Contribute to Dscout’s culture of feedback, continuous improvement, and research excellence.

What You Should Have

•  3+ years in a customer-facing SaaS role such as Solutions Consulting, Solutions Engineering, Research Consulting, or a related field.
• Strong understanding of qualitative research methodologies with hands-on experience planning and executing research.
• Ability to communicate complex research workflows and translate them into compelling product stories.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills-able to be consultative, clear, and persuasive with senior stakeholders.
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity, structuring messy problems, and crafting strategic recommendations.
• Bachelor's degree (or equivalent) in business, behavioral sciences, HCI, design research, or equivalent professional experience.

Nice to Have

• Experience supporting enterprise-level sales cycles.
• Familiarity with UX research, insights, or usability testing platforms (Dscout, UserTesting, Maze, etc.).
• Exposure to product management or prototyping tools such as Figma or Miro.
• Leadership experience including mentoring, onboarding, or serving as a team lead.

Success in This Role Looks Like

• Delivering high-quality demos, POCs, and discovery engagements that accelerate pipeline momentum and customer clarity.
