About deskbird
Workplaces should adapt to people, not the other way around. That’s why we built deskbird, an AI-powered workplace platform that helps companies run their offices and understand how they’re really used. It covers desk and room booking, visitor management, office analytics and more.
Founded in Switzerland in 2020, deskbird is now used by more than 250,000 people across 10,000+ offices worldwide, at companies like Samsung, Deloitte, Airbus and Philips. Backed by a $23M Series B led by Octopus Ventures, we’re growing from a desk booking tool into a workplace intelligence company.
We’re 100+ deskbirds from 20+ nationalities, working across our hubs in Europe.
Your mission
You are the technical voice of our sales team, for Account Executives in DACH and International. Enterprise buyers bring IT, IT security, data protection and the works council into the room. You make sure deskbird wins that part of the deal.
Today, technical questions in many deals go to our founders and product team. You take that over. You run the technical deep dives, answer security and privacy questionnaires, and shape pilots so they turn into rollouts.
You are the first Solution Engineer at deskbird. You will build how we do it: the demo environments, the answer library and the way we hand deals over to Customer Success.
In this role you will
Partner with Account Executives from discovery to signature on mid-market and enterprise deals.

Build reusable assets: demo environments, an answer library and technical one-pagers.
What you need to be successful
3+ years as a Solution Engineer, Sales Engineer or Pre-Sales Consultant in B2B SaaS.

You like building things from scratch and working without a fixed playbook.
