Role description

We're looking for a Senior Solutions Engineer to own the complete technical lifecycle of our client relationships—from the very first discovery call through proof-of-concept, integration design, live deployment, and ongoing technical account management. You'll be the technical authority that wins the sale, delivers integrations to a live standard, and keeps strategic accounts technically healthy and expanding. Reporting to the Head of Enterprise Sales, you'll lead pre-sales technical engagements, design and validate integration architectures, and ensure enterprise clients go live on schedule with confidence. You'll translate complex technical requirements into credible solutions, manage PoCs that accelerate purchase decisions, and maintain trusted relationships with client architects and C-suite stakeholders alike. At iiDENTIFii, we're solving one of Africa's most consequential technical challenges: remote identity verification at scale across high-stakes, inconsistent infrastructure. Our biometric identity platform is trusted by some of the continent's most demanding institutions in financial services, telecoms, and government—precisely because we've built something that works. You'll join a technically excellent, mission-driven team at the frontier of biometric identity technology, where your field intelligence directly shapes how we sell, support, and build. We operate with a remote-first culture based in Johannesburg, and we value the kind of technical credibility and commercial instinct that moves seamlessly between security architects and CFOs in the same meeting. We offer competitive compensation designed to reward exceptional impact, with exclusive access to preferential banking benefits including competitive rates on home loans, vehicle finance, and personal loans. You'll benefit from enhanced family responsibility leave, annual leave that grows with tenure, and the opportunity to work on technology that's genuinely advancing Africa's digital economy. If you have 6-8+ years in solutions engineering or technical consulting within enterprise B2B technology—ideally in biometric identity, KYC/AML, fintech, or regulated industries—and you're fluent in API and SDK-driven integration environments, we want to hear from you.

Our Mission

We're on a mission to stop identity fraud, enable financial inclusion, and safe-guard businesses and their customers from the financial and emotional trauma caused by identity theft. We’re for authenticity and sovereign identities, and for protecting and authenticating human identities in a connected world.

Our Solution

iiDENTIFIii is an enterprise-grade remote biometric identity verification platform that verifies and authenticates a person’s identity in seconds. Our identity verification platform is already being used by the biggest banks and other financial institutions on the continent.

How We Work

Our teams are small and cross-functional, and made up of highly skilled individuals that own their area end-to-end, collaborating with Product, UX Design and Customer Success to design the best solutions for complex problems. Our success is measured by the value that we add rather than the amount of work we do. We also collaborate across teams and roles to take on key strategic initiatives, which encourages different points of view, innovation and creativity. We learn from each other and enjoy being on the cutting edge of technology. Because we're small, we care for each other like family. And because we dream big, we are all wholeheartedly invested in building quality software that makes peoples' lives better.

We are constantly re-evaluating ourselves, tweaking to improve efficiency and increasing productivity while not sacrificing the wellbeing of our staff. We have a family-first approach when it comes to work-life balance and radical transparency throughout the company ensures that everyone is always on the same page.
