Job Category Sales Job Details About Salesforce Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all. Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce. Overview AI is reshaping how capital is deployed, how companies scale, and how value is created, and nowhere is that shift moving faster than in private equity and the startup ecosystem. The Global Private Equity & Startups Practice (PE & Startups) is one of Salesforce's most strategic go-to-market initiatives. We partner with the world's leading PE firms, their portfolio companies, and the most ambitious high-growth and AI-native startups to help them become agentic enterprises. As a Solution Engineer in PE & Startups, you'll work where enterprise technology, investment strategy, and executive advisory meet. You'll help investors and operators turn AI from a boardroom talking point into measurable results, using Agentforce, Data 360, and the Salesforce platform to redesign how deals are sourced, how portfolios are run, and how companies grow. This is not a traditional SE role. You'll advise Operating Partners, founders, and C-suite leaders, build solution narratives that move at deal speed, and help define what an AI-first operating model looks like across entire portfolios. Why This Role Stands Out You'll be at the forefront of agentic AI adoption. PE firms are under pressure to show AI-driven value creation across their portfolios, and startups are building AI into their businesses from day one. You'll help both. You'll have outsized, portfolio-level impact. One successful engagement with a PE firm can shape the technology strategy of dozens of portfolio companies. One win with a fast-growing startup can grow into a long-term enterprise partnership. You'll work with sophisticated, fast-moving leaders: Managing Partners, Operating Partners, founders, CFOs, CROs, and CIOs who expect sharp thinking and fast results. You'll join a specialized, high-visibility team aligned to Salesforce's most strategic PE-backed and high-growth accounts, and you'll help shape the practice's point of view on AI in private markets. What You'll Do Advise on agentic transformation. Serve as the primary technical and strategic advisor to PE firms, their portfolio companies, and high-growth startups, guiding them through multi-cloud Salesforce and Agentforce solutions for deal flow, LP relations, portfolio operations, and revenue growth. Lead executive conversations. Run discovery and value-framing sessions with Managing Directors, Operating Partners, founders, CFOs, and CIOs, connecting AI and data strategy directly to investment theses, EBITDA improvement, and growth goals. Show the future, not slides. Design and deliver highly tailored demos, prototypes, and proofs of concept that show AI agents working alongside people: automating sourcing and diligence workflows, improving portfolio visibility, scaling sales and service, and unlocking digital labor. Drive portfolio-wide value creation. Articulate how Salesforce accelerates revenue growth, operational efficiency, and exit readiness, and help firms build repeatable AI and data playbooks they can roll out
