Team mission

Solutions at Upvest are seen as a trusted technical advisor for prospective clients, using industry expertise to provide innovative, tailored solutions that empower them to build world‐leading investment experiences.

Your mission

As a Solutions Consultant you will partner with our sales team to demonstrate the value of Upvest to prospective clients and develop a deep understanding of their business needs and challenges. A key part of this role involves streamlining and accelerating the technical pre‐sales process by developing and managing standardised technical content and steering RFI/RFP processes, including implementing a state‐of‐the‐art tooling stack. This role requires seamless cross‐functional collaboration with our product, engineering, operations and banking teams to ensure we develop comprehensive solutions that address all requirements.

This role will give you the opportunity to

• Enable Europe's top financial services companies and fintechs to build state‐of‐the‐art brokerage and wealth propositions.
• Act as a trusted technical advisor. You will become a recognised expert in Upvest's product offering and the investment infrastructure market, creating and maintaining a comprehensive library of standardised technical content (solution deep‐dives, architecture diagrams). You'll ensure this content is consistently updated and lead responses for RFIs and RFPs, coordinating with internal teams.
• Drive cross‐functional collaboration. Partnering with sales, you will develop and deliver compelling solutions workshops and product deep‐dives, contributing to scalable processes and materials that streamline the sales cycle and facilitate client onboarding. Operating in a regulated environment, you'll ensure solution compliance across all Upvest departments.

What You'll Bring

• Experience across solutions engineering/consulting, technical sales or client‐facing consulting roles within complex financial services.
• Excellent verbal and written communication and presentation skills, effectively engaging both business and technical stakeholders.
• Experience creating client-facing collateral including design artifacts and technical specifications, with a strong attention to detail.
• Keen interest in tooling to support and enhance solution processes and strong project management skills to ensure delivery.
• Good technical understanding and a passion for technology and the investment market, with a proactive approach to learning and knowledge sharing.

It's great if you

• Bring a client‐first mindset and a pragmatic approach to solving problems, translating requirements into technical solutions with a strong attention to detail.
• Are self‐motivated and thrive in autonomous environments, with excellent time management and organisational skills to handle multiple priorities effectively and take ownership of outcomes.
• Have experience in the investment space and B2B SaaS products.
