About the role
About Traversal Traversal is the AI Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) for the enterprise—already trusted by some of the largest companies in the world to troubleshoot, remediate, and even prevent the most complex production incidents. Our mission is to free engineers from endless firefighting and enable them to focus on creative, high-impact work. Our roots remain deeply embedded in AI research, and we’re channeling that scientific rigor and creativity into building the premier AI agent lab for the enterprise. Hence, what we’re proudest of is assembling the most talented yet nicest group of individuals, including researchers from MIT, Harvard, and Berkeley, to world-class engineers from industry: Citadel Securities, Cockroach Labs, Datadog, DE Shaw, ServiceNow, Glean, Perplexity, Pinecone, and more, to take on one of the hardest problems for AI to solve. Without the entire team, none of this would be possible.
The Role As a Solutions Engineer at Traversal, you’ll help define how we engage with prospective customers, you'll guide them from initial technical discovery through successful deployment. This is a foundational, customer-facing role at the intersection of technical depth and relationship building. You’ll collaborate with product and engineering to translate customer needs into compelling, customized pilot deployments that achieve high value for customers. You’ll work closely with our CEO, CTO, GTM and Product teams to help scale founder-led sales into a repeatable process. You’ll act as the technical voice in conversations with prospects, create resources to support go-to-market efforts, and relay insights back to
the team to shape roadmap priorities. If you thrive in high-ownership, high-velocity environments—and are excited to help define how AI-native infrastructure products are introduced and adopted—we’d love to meet you.
Responsibilities Drive technical discovery and demo conversations with engineering teams evaluating Traversal. Translate complex infrastructure problems into tailored, high-impact pilot evaluations. Build and maintain demo environments, technical guides, and internal tooling to support our sales process. Partner with product and engineering to scope integrations, relay customer feedback, and influence roadmap direction. Support onboarding and implementation efforts for new customers, ensuring early wins and long-term adoption. Stay current on observability trends, SRE workflows, and the broader AI infrastructure ecosystem.
