About The Role

We're building out the Customer Success Engineering team at Postman, and we need business‑mindful engineers who can solve real problems at scale. You will partner closely with Customer Success Managers and own the “how” of technical solutioning. This consultative role requires depth and versatility, and focuses on technical architecture that turns complex challenges into repeatable solutions for our entire enterprise customer base.

What You'll Do

• Value Acceleration at Scale: Unblock customers with everything from basic setup issues to complex architectural challenges, while identifying patterns to build preventive solutions that benefit hundreds of customers.
• Technical Discovery and Solutioning: Partner with CSMs to understand business objectives and translate them into practical, battle‑tested implementation paths. Deliver deployable solutions that work in production.
• Collateral and Enablement: Build reusable assets such as technical guides, templates, scripts, and reference implementations that scale best practices across customers.
• Product Feedback Loop: Capture customer challenges, propose interim solutions, and document gaps to inform product roadmap discussions.
• Adaptive Problem Solving: When out‑of‑the‑box functionality is insufficient, design pragmatic solutions—workarounds, custom scripts, integrations, etc.—to unblock and activate customers.

About You

6–8+ years in a technical customer‑facing role and a portfolio of built solutions. Titles such as Customer Success Engineering, Solutions Engineering, Forward‑Deployed Engineering, or Technical Account Manager are acceptable as long as the role involves hands‑on technical work that solves real problems for customers.

You Should Have

• Strong foundation in Computer Science or Engineering (degree or equivalent real‑world experience).
• Experience with JavaScript and related technologies such as Node.js or TypeScript, or equivalent experience with other modern scripting languages.
• Deep understanding of APIs, developer workflows, and modern DevOps practices.
• Proven ability to scope ambiguous problems and deliver working solutions quickly.
• Experience building technical collateral that scales—scripts, templates, automation tools.
• Comfort engaging both individual developers and enterprise architects.
• Fluent in German.

You should be comfortable using Postman and familiar with the broader developer toolchain—GitHub, AWS, Azure, and other pipelines. Most importantly, you need to understand how enterprises actually build and ship software, not just how they say they do in planning meetings.
