Full description
About this Position:
Justt helps many of the world’s largest and most recognizable brands turn chargebacks from a constant headache into a managed, predictable part of doing business. Our AI-driven platform powers chargeback operations at scale, automating disputes end to end, recovering revenue that would otherwise be lost, and removing a major operational burden from finance, risk, and operations teams across multiple regions and verticals.
We’re a global company with teams across markets, and disciplines, working closely with leading players in the payments ecosystem. Our culture is built on clear thinking, collaboration, and a strong sense of ownership. At Justt, you’ll partner with product, engineering, data, success and go-to-market teams to build technology that sits at the core of modern payments, and has a direct, measurable impact on the bottom line for some of the biggest companies in
Role Overview:
The Pre-Sale Solution Engineer is Justt's technical co-pilot in the sales process: present from the first meaningful discovery call and fully accountable for all technical workstreams until the contract is signed. This is a pure pre-sale role: you do not own onboarding or post-launch support. Your focus is singular: help Sales win technically complex, high-value deals.
You will work closely with Account Executives across the AMER region, engaging on strategic accounts and deals above the defined threshold ($30K+ CARR/ARR). You bring equal measures of technical depth and commercial instinct: you know how to run a rigorous scoping session and how to read a room.
This role sits within the Commercial Operations department and reports to the Director of Solutions.
Key Responsibility: Technical Discovery & Scoping
- Lead technical discovery on qualified prospects: understand their payment stack, PSP(s), data architecture, chargeback volume, and existing dispute processes.
- Define and scope the integration approach: API connectivity, PSP evidence retrieval, data enrichment options, and any custom requirements.
- Identify gaps, risks, and blockers early and surface them clearly to Sales and internal stakeholders.
- Act as the internal relay between Sales and Product/Engineering when non-standard requirements surface during the sales cycle.
Demo & Proof of Concept
- Deliver compelling, tailored technical demonstrations and adapt to the prospect's actual environment, stack, and use case.
- Build and run proof-of-concept (POC) sessions that prove Justt's fit technically and commercially.
- Handle technical objections confidently and independently turning blockers into reasons to move forward.
Statement of Work (SOW)
- Translate scoping outputs into a precise, commercially sound SOW: integration approach, timelines, data requirements, and acceptance criteria.
