 * You like being consultative, asking good questions before proposing answers
 * You get a kick out of helping partners grow and build something new

## Description

You'll work alongside our Partnerships team to qualify opportunities, run technical discovery, design the integration and get the partner live. You'll be the person a partner's engineers trust when something misbehaves in the sandbox, and the person who can explain to their commercial team why a design choice matters.

Your day-to-day will focus on:

 * Lead technical discovery with prospective and existing partners and turn it into a clear solution design using our various partner APIs such as Embed & Connect
 * Build and deliver demos and proofs of concept that show how bank payments work inside the partner's product
 * Guide partners through integration, testing and launch, including webhooks, failure handling and go-live readiness
 * Work with Partnerships to qualify, shape and close partner opportunities
 * Build the assets that make the next integration faster, e.g. guides, sample code, Postman collections and integration checklists
 * Keep us ahead of how partners use our APIs with newer tooling, including MCP and agentic commerce
