Job Description

About Decagon
Decagon is the leading conversational AI platform empowering every brand to deliver concierge customer experiences.

Our technology enables industry-defining enterprises like Avis Budget Group, Block’s Cash App and Square, Chime, Oura Health, and Hunter Douglas to deploy AI agents that power personalized, deeply satisfying interactions across voice, chat, email, SMS, and every other channel.

We’re building a future where customer experiences are being redefined from support tickets and hold music to faster resolutions, richer conversations, and deeper relationships. We’re proud to be backed by world-class investors who share that vision, including a16z, Accel, Bain Capital Ventures, Coatue, and Index Ventures, along with many others.

We’re an in-office company, driven by a shared commitment to excellence and velocity. Our values — Just Get It Done, Invent What Customers Want, Winner’s Mindset, and The Polymath Principle — shape how we work and grow as a team.

About The Role
Decagon is looking for a Business Value Consultant to build and scale our value engineering function, partnering closely with Sales on our most strategic enterprise opportunities.

This role sits at the center of GTM - bridging product, sales, and finance - and is responsible for translating Decagon’s platform into clear, quantified business impact. You will work directly with executive stakeholders (CFO, COO, CX leaders) to develop compelling, data-driven business cases that accelerate deal cycles, increase win rates, and drive larger, more strategic investments.

Beyond individual deals, you will help define and operationalize Decagon’s value-based selling motion - building repeatable frameworks, tools, and narratives that scale across the field.

In This Role, You Will

  • Drive Strategic Deals

+ Partner with Account Executives on high-priority enterprise opportunities to uncover customer pain points, quantify impact, and shape deal strategy. Build ROI models, business cases, and value hypotheses tied to customer-specific metrics (cost reduction, revenue lift, efficiency gains, CSAT improvement). Lead executive-level value conversations with CFOs, COOs, and senior business stakeholders. Support negotiation and procurement processes with defensible financial justification

  • Build & Scale Value Frameworks

+ Develop industry- and persona-specific value frameworks aligned to Decagon’s core use case. Standardize ROI models, benchmarks, and value drivers across segments (enterprise, mid-market, verticals). Create reusable assets (value calculators, business case templates, benchmarking data) to enable broader GTM teams. Partner with Marketing and Product to refine value messaging and positioning

  • Operationalize Value-Based Selling

+ Embed value engineering into the sales process from early discovery through close. Train and enable AEs, SEs, and post-sales teams on value-based selling methodologies. Establish best practices for linking product capabilities to measurable business outcomes. Ensure consistency and rigor in how Decagon positions and proves value in-market

  • Cross-Functional Partnership

+ Collaborate with Product and Agent Success to capture realized customer value and feed it back into future deals. Partner with Finance to align on value assumptions, pricing strategy, and deal economics. Work with RevOps to track impact on pipeline, win rates, deal size, and sales cycle

Your background looks something like this

  • 6+ years in value engineering, management consulting, sales engineering, strategic finance, or similar roles

  • Proven experience partnering with Sales on complex enterprise deals and influencing outcomes

  • Strong financial modeling skills (Excel / Google Sheets) with the ability to build clear, defensible ROI models

  • Ability to translate technical capabilities into business outcomes that resonate with executive stakeholders

  • Executive presence - comfortable leading conversations with CFOs, COOs, and senior decision-makers

  • Familiarity with enterprise buying cycles and value-based selling methodologies

Even better if you have

  • Experience in SaaS, AI/ML, customer operations, or contact center ecosystems

  • Background in consulting (e.g., strategy, operations, or digital transformation) or investment/strategic finance

  • Experience building or scaling a value engineering function in a high-growth company

  • Familiarity with GTM systems (Salesforce, Gong, etc.) and data-driven sales processes

  • Experience in regulated industries (financial services, healthcare, etc.)

Benefits
We proudly offer the following benefits for our full-time employees:

  • Take what you need vacation policy (subject to local requirements; UK employees receive 25 days of statutory leave)

  • Medical, Dental, and Vision benefits for you and your family

  • Life Insurance and Disability Benefits

  • Retirement Plan (e.g., 401K, pension)

  • Parental Leave

  • Fertility and family building benefits through Carrot

  • Daily lunches and snacks in the office to keep you at your best

*These benefits are described in more detail in Decagon’s policies, may vary by location, and can change at any time according to applicable compensation and benefits plans.*

Practice Questions

💡Technical Questions (3)
  • 1.How would you approach building an ROI model for a prospective enterprise client looking to implement Decagon's conversational AI platform across their contact centers?
  • 2.A CFO is skeptical of the efficiency gains projected in your business case and pushes back on your AI deflection rate assumptions. How do you defend your model?
  • 3.How do you translate a highly technical capability, like Decagon's ability to execute complex, multi-step workflows autonomously, into a business outcome that resonates with a COO?
🎯Behavioral Questions (3)
  • 1.Tell me about a time you partnered with an Account Executive on a complex, high-stakes enterprise deal where value engineering was the key to winning.
  • 2.Describe a situation where you had to build a value framework or reusable asset from scratch and enable a broader team to use it effectively.
  • 3.Give me an example of a time you had to align cross-functional teams—like Product, Sales, and Finance—on a value narrative or deal economics.
🧩Situational Questions (2)
  • 1.You are brought into a strategic deal late in the cycle. The prospect is comparing Decagon to a cheaper competitor, and the AE is losing momentum. How do you shift the conversation to value and get the deal back on track?
  • 2.Leadership asks you to operationalize a value-based selling motion across the entire GTM organization, but the AEs are resistant to adopting new frameworks, claiming it slows down their process. How do you drive adoption?
