About the Role
As a Software Solutions Consultant, you will connect prospective customers with the technical capabilities of DCS DATUM software. You will help customers understand how DATUM can support their operations, gather and document project requirements, and guide opportunities through the internal scoping, pricing, and proposal process.
You will work closely with Solutions Business Development, Sales, System Engineering, DATUM Development, Estimating, Implementation, and Contracts Management. Approximately 50 percent of your time will be customer facing, including discovery conversations, technical presentations, demonstrations, and trade show participation.
DCS will value your ability to understand technical needs, communicate software concepts clearly, and keep opportunities moving across multiple teams.
