About
Customer-facing solutions leader with 12+ years spanning enterprise implementation, solutions architecture, and technical presales.
Lead Solutions Engineer at an API-first SaaS platform, owning discovery, demos, POCs, integration architecture, and implementation handoffs.
I turn API documentation and workflow diagrams into working demos that help customers make a decision. Then I stay close enough to implementation to make sure the promise holds up.

Lead Solutions Engineer + GTM Strategist
Orderful
2024 — Present
Minneapolis, MN
Lead technical sales and customer solution design for an API-first EDI platform serving enterprise integration and operations teams. Own technical discovery, tailored demos, POCs, security reviews, and late-cycle solution design across customer ERP, integration, and trading-partner environments.
- Built a Chrome extension that runs as a native sidebar alongside the Orderful platform, allowing live posting and retrieval of transactions during demos and showing the complete platform workflow end to end
- Built a demo and POC provisioning application that creates customer environments, applies time-based access gates, automatically revokes expired accounts, and tracks conversion from POC to customer
- Served as the sole Solutions Engineer for two quarters in a function previously staffed by three, supporting more than $2M in year-to-date bookings and 100+ closed-won opportunities while meeting or exceeding SE-attributed targets for six consecutive quarters
- Built and operate a seven-agent AI fleet plus reusable tools for six AEs and post-sales teams across research, demo preparation, customer handoffs, and product feedback; one workflow reduced partner research effort by roughly 80%
- Created a standing, dollar-weighted product-gap backlog across a multimillion-dollar pipeline, converting recurring customer and deal evidence into structured Product prioritization input
