IT Services Sales

About the role

This is not a traditional sales role. You will be the technical face of one of our two practices — eCommerce or Data Science / AI — running demos, leading webinars, presenting at industry events, and converting technical conversations into pipeline. You will own your demo environment end-to-end, stand up POCs without leaning on an architect, and translate platform and solution capability into business outcomes for buyers ranging from Head of Digital, Director of eCommerce, and Director of Data through to the CIO and CTO.

Responsibilities

• Run demos in your sandbox, lead webinars, and present at industry events
• Lead POCs spanning mid-market and enterprise buyers, including both established retailers and digitally-native brands
• Collaborate with delivery teams to feed real implementation patterns back into your pitch
• Source and engage with prospects through marketing and outbound efforts

Requirements

• Two to three years in solutions consulting, sales engineering, technical pre-sales, or technical consulting tied to either modern eCommerce platforms or data science and AI tooling
• A master’s degree (MBA, MS, or similar) is strongly preferred — we recruit actively from Kellogg, Booth, and comparable programs
• US work authorization without ongoing sponsorship is preferred

Qualifications

• E-commerce track: Experience with Shopify Plus, BigCommerce, Adobe Commerce (Magento), Salesforce Commerce Cloud, commercetools, SAP Commerce, Oracle Commerce, or comparable enterprise commerce platforms
• Data Science / AI track: Python and SQL fluency; hands-on exposure to ML and AI workflows; comfort with platforms such as Snowflake, Databricks, AWS SageMaker, Azure ML, Google Vertex AI, or LLM tooling (OpenAI, Anthropic, Hugging Face)

Skills

• Technical proficiency in modern eCommerce platforms or data science and AI tooling
• Ability to hold credible conversations across architecture, integrations, and business value
• Comfort delivering demos in front of executive buyers

Benefits

• Base salary $70,000, with on-target variable compensation bringing total OTE to $90,000, calibrated to experience and practice depth
• Hybrid schedule based out of our Naperville HQ with regular days at our Chicago Loop office
• Health, dental, vision, 401(k), and the resources to build a practice you can point to in five years and say you built it
