Solutions Consultant

Postman Postman · Enterprise · San Francisco, CA · Sales

Solutions Consultant at Postman, focusing on onboarding enterprise customers to their API platform. Responsibilities include technical discovery, solution design, security implementation, and driving platform adoption. Requires experience in technical customer-facing roles, understanding of SDLC and APIs, and familiarity with enterprise security concepts. Experience in regulated industries is a plus.

What you'd actually do

  1. Own structured onboarding and adoption engagements end to end, from kickoff and project planning through configuration, testing, closing, and post-engagement hypercare, serving as the single point of ownership for the platform-side rollout.
  2. Lead discovery into each customer's API lifecycle, team structure, collaboration patterns, and security requirements, and translate that into a project plan and workspace design tailored to their environment.
  3. Configure and validate enterprise security and identity controls, including SSO/SAML across multiple identity providers, SCIM provisioning and role-based access control, domain verification and capture, content migration, Secret Scanner, external vaults, BYOK encryption, and audit-log integration with customer SIEM tooling.
  4. Design and stand up customers' team and discovery workspaces, access controls, integrations, Private API Network, and CI/CD workflows, and enable their teams to collaborate, reuse APIs, and adopt the platform at scale.
  5. Drive cadence and momentum across each engagement, surface risks and blockers early, and coordinate the customer's IT, security, and engineering stakeholders, including navigating regulated-environment constraints like audit and change-control requirements.
