Description

The Experience

The , is part of the Swiss pre-sales organisation at Salesforce. In this role, you will help manufacturing customers unlock the full potential of AI — from intelligent automation to personalised experiences — working closely with customers, account teams, and product experts to build trust, deliver innovative solutions, and shape the future of AI in the manufacturing industry.

We are looking for a Solution Engineer who brings either a manufacturing or industrial engineering background with a passion for digital transformation, or a technical and AI-focused background with hands-on experience in automation, data, or intelligent systems — and ideally a combination of both.

What You'll Actually Be Doing

  • Build compelling product demonstrations and lead customer workshops that showcase how AI agents and automation can solve real-world manufacturing challenges, connecting customer goals to Salesforce solutions.

  • Serve as a trusted advisor to both IT and business leaders, understanding customer objectives and articulating how Salesforce fits into their enterprise architecture and digital transformation roadmap.

  • Collaborate closely with sales, product, and engineering teams to tailor solutions to specific customer needs across the manufacturing and industrial sector.

  • Stay curious and continuously develop your knowledge of Salesforce's evolving AI capabilities and the latest innovations in manufacturing technology.

You're Our Person If...

  • You have experience in a Solution Engineering, pre-sales, or Solution Consulting role, with the ability to engage credibly across both technical and business audiences.

  • You have a background in manufacturing, supply chain, or operations, or hands-on experience with automation, data platforms, or AI applications in an enterprise context.

  • You are a confident, collaborative communicator who can simplify complex topics for a range of customer stakeholders, from operational teams to executive decision makers.

  • You are fluent in English and French (spoken and written); proficiency in German is a strong advantage for this role.

Even Better If...

  • You hold one or more Salesforce certifications such as Administrator, Platform App Builder, or AI Associate, and have previous experience with the Salesforce ecosystem.

  • You have experience working in cross-functional teams and familiarity with enterprise platforms, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), or coding languages such as Java or JavaScript.
