Backbase is expanding. There is no doubt that we have the best possible solution in our niche market. But if you think that winning over clients comes by itself, think again. It’s a tough process.
As a Technical Solutions Engineer, it is your core responsibility, together with your team, to support the technical evaluation process and to deliver remarkable results on a continuous basis. Your job is to take away all possible concerns that may exist with the prospect.

We work on a global scale and our team operates without regions. So if you don’t already have a frequent flyer status, you will do so within a year.
