About the Role
As an Enterprise/Strategic Field Engineer, you'll be the technical cornerstone for Replit's largest and most strategic accounts. This is a hybrid role: high-impact pre-sales (closing complex technical evaluations) and post-sales (driving adoption, expansion, and retention). You'll own the end-to-end technical relationship—from pre-sales architecture discussions through multi-year expansion—ensuring our enterprise customers don't just use Replit, but become Replit-powered companies.
You'll partner with Account Executives and Account Managers in a high-accountability Pod structure. This is not a reactive support role—this is a proactive, strategic technical leader who identifies blockers before they become problems, champions new use cases, and directly influences $5M+ in annual recurring revenue.

- Strategic Technical Discovery: When you are pulled into complex deals, you join as the expert closer. You run deep discovery on their stack and constraints, then design the winning technical strategy.
- Proof of Value (POV) & Live Building: You build live, functional applications on the fly during executive meetings to prove immediate value and technical feasibility to VPs and C-suite stakeholders.
- Context & Connectivity (MCP): You write and deploy Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers to securely connect Replit Agents to customer-specific data, making Replit the central hub for their internal development.

- Infrastructure Strategy: You lead deep-dive reviews for Single-Tenant/VPC deployments, ensuring Replit fits the customer’s security posture.
- Hackathons & Trials: You lead high-energy Hackathons alongside Account Executives to drive hands-on experience and excitement about Replit.
Post-Sales
- Production Foundation: You lead the technical kickoff, ensuring production-ready SSO/SCIM provisioning, guardrails, and security setup.
- Technical Onboarding & Enablement: You ensure customers learn how to build in Replit to its maximum capabilities. You enable technical and non-technical teams by running training sessions and workshops that establish enterprise workflows with Replit.
- Design Systems: You build Design Systems and starter templates tailored to the customer’s stack to accelerate their internal development time.
- Drive Viral Growth: You build trust with key technical stakeholders, proactively running enablement sessions to keep teams building. You act as the spark for viral growth within the account.
- Source & Qualify Expansion: Work with Account Managers to proactively identify new teams, new use cases, and new projects. You provide the technical validation to support the commercial close.
- Run Value-Based QBRs: Co-lead quarterly business reviews, shifting the conversation to business value delivered and strategic roadmap alignment.

This role may not be a fit if
- You haven't had your "Replit Moment". You didn't explore the product on your own, get mind-blown by the speed of creation, and immediately start showing your apps to friends and family.
- You are uncomfortable building functional apps on the fly in front of executives or need a script to demonstrate value.
- You prefer reactive troubleshooting over proactively identifying architectural blockers and owning the technical strategy.
- You struggle to debug code, configure SSO, or understand cloud infrastructure without significant hand-holding.
- You aren't obsessed with how Agents are rewriting the SDLC, and you don't use AI tools to build in your own spare time.
- You struggle in ambiguous, high-growth environments where you often have to build the tool or process required to solve the problem.
- You're not comfortable with significant travel (up to 30%+) for customer meetings and on-site engagements
- You prefer transactional interactions over building deep, multi-year customer relationships
Note: This role will begin as remote, with plans to transition to a hybrid model once we establish a local office presence.
