About Reality Defender

Detect deepfakes in audio, video, and images. Identify AI callers and add detection to live calls, meetings, and applications. Backed by Y Combinator and AI Grant.

About the role

Deepfake detection is a new category, and most buyers are evaluating it for the first time. They need someone who can show them, on their own media and inside their own workflows, what our platform catches and how it fits their stack. As a Solutions Engineer, you'll be that person: the technical lead on deals with banks, government agencies, and enterprise security teams, from first discovery call through a working integration. This is a full-time role based in NYC or can be full-time remote, reporting to our CRO. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • 3+ years as a Solutions Engineer, Sales Engineer, or in a similar customer-facing technical role, ideally selling cybersecurity, fraud prevention, identity, or AI/ML products to enterprise buyers
  • A track record of running proofs of concept that convert: you set clear success criteria, keep evaluations on schedule, and can show deals you helped close
  • Hands-on with APIs and integrations, with enough Python or JavaScript to build a demo, read a customer's code, and troubleshoot an integration. Working knowledge of AWS, Azure, or GCP
  • Comfortable explaining probabilistic results (confidence scores, false positive and false negative rates) to both a fraud analyst and a CISO
  • Strong communicator who can hold a room with technical and executive audiences, and who tells customers honestly what the product does and doesn't do
  • Experience selling into financial services, government, defense, or other regulated buyers, including security reviews and compliance requirements (SOC 2, FedRAMP, or similar). (nice to have)
