  • Serve as the trusted advisor on Udemy’s learning solutions, guiding prospects and customers on best practices.
  • Participate in workshops, webinars, and events as a thought leader to showcase the value of Udemy to larger audiences.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with product, marketing, and customer success teams to ensure feedback loops from the field.
  • Support RFPs/RFIs by providing clear, value-focused responses aligned to customer objectives.
  • Proof of Concepts:Develop, construct and deliver effective metric-driven Proof of Concepts (PoCs) for executives and decision-makers.
  • Understanding of sales process/ methodology (MEDDPICC etc.)

  • 5+ years in a pre-sales, solution engineering, solution consulting, or similar role at a SaaS or enterprise software company.
  • Exceptional presentation skills; comfortable presenting to executive audiences and large groups (100+ people).
  • Strong discovery skills — ability to uncover, clarify, and articulate business drivers.
  • Proven ability to craft compelling stories that connect customer needs to platform value.
  • Strong business acumen and ability to connect technology to measurable business outcomes.
  • Experience partnering closely with enterprise sales teams.
  • Excellent communication, relationship-building, and influencing skills.
