DeepLAs a Senior Solutions Consultant in Japan, you will be trusted to lead complex customer engagements and partner strategically with Sales. You will work across DeepL's full product range, spanning AI translation, Language AI workflows, APIs, and DeepL Voice for real-time multilingual communication, with Japanese enterprise customers as your primary focus. This is a hands-on role. You will work directly with the product, building demos, prototypes, and proof-of-value environments, not only producing materials about it. You will work in close partnership with Account Executives through the full sales cycle, and with Marketing, Product, and Customer Success to make sure what we promise is what we deliver. This is a small team, which means the scope for individual impact is unusually large. The team has built a foundation to work from, and there is still plenty that no one has had the capacity to build yet. We are looking for someone who can improve what already exists and create what is missing, and who wants to grow into shaping how Solutions Consulting works here rather than only executing within it.
- Native-level Japanese and business-level English are required. Native-level English is not required. Additional language proficiency is an advantage. - 5+ years of client-facing technical experience in Solutions Consulting, Solutions Engineering, or Pre-Sales, ideally in enterprise SaaS, AI, CCaaS, language technology, or a comparable environment. - A track record of owning discovery, demos, and solutioning on complex deals, and of contributing directly to whether those deals closed. - A hands-on track record of personally building or configuring customer-facing demos, prototypes, POCs, or proof-of-value environments. - The ability to run several deals at once with minimal oversight. - A strong technical foundation: you are comfortable talking about REST APIs, authentication and SSO frameworks (SAML, OAuth, OpenID Connect, Azure AD), and common SaaS integration patterns. You do not need to write code day to day. - A solid understanding of security and compliance topics, and the confidence to discuss them with IT and legal audiences. - Experience running RFI and RFP processes. - Strong presentation and communication skills, with the ability to adapt to both business and technical audiences. - Curiosity about industry trends and competitive intelligence, and a habit of reflecting on what worked and what did not after a deal.
- Diverse and internationally distributed team: joining our team means becoming part of a large, global community with people of more than 90 nationalities. We're more than just colleagues; we're a group of professionals with a shared mission to connect diverse cultures. Our global presence is growing–we've doubled in size nearly every year, with our employees based in the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, the US, and Japan, and we continue to expand our network. - Open communication, regular feedback: as a language-focused company, we value the importance of clear, honest communication. We value smooth collaboration, direct and actionable feedback, and believe that leading with empathy and growth mindset makes us better together. - Hybrid work, flexible hours: we offer a hybrid work schedule, with team members coming into the office twice a week. This allows you to engage directly with your team and experience the unique energy of our workspace, while still enjoying the flexibility and comfort of working from home. With flexible working hours and trust in your productivity, we are in sync with your team's general locations and time zones to foster effective and seamless collaboration. - Virtual Shares - An ownership mindset in every role. We believe everyone should share in our success, and that's why every employee receives Virtual Shares, linking your contribution directly to DeepL's growth and rewarding you with a stake in our future. - Regular in-person team events: we bond over vibrant events that are as unique as our team, from local team and business unit gatherings, to new-joiner onboardings, to company-wide events that bring us all together–literally. - Monthly full-day hacking sessions: every month, we have Hack Fridays, where you can spend your time diving into a project you're passionate about and get the opportunity to work with other teams–we value your initiatives, impact, and creativity. - 20 days of annual leave: we value your peace of mind. With 20 days off (excluding public holidays) and access to mental health resources, we make sure you're as strong mentally as you are professionally. - Competitive benefits: just as our team spans the globe, so does our benefits package. We've crafted it to reflect the diversity of our team and tailored it to align with your unique location, to ensure you feel supported every step of the way.
