At Crunch-IS, we don’t just build technology — we create an environment where talented people can grow, develop innovative solutions, and truly feel their impact. We are a global team with a strong engineering culture, open communication, and genuine passion for what we do.

About the role
We’re looking for an Engagement Manager to own and drive early-stage client engagement and new business opportunities. This role sits at the intersection of business, technology, and relationships.
You’ll be the first point of contact for prospective clients - leading discovery conversations, understanding business challenges, and shaping initial engagements that turn interest into qualified opportunities. This is a new business–focused role, but it’s rooted in consultative conversations, trust-building, and long-term value rather than transactional selling.
If you enjoy engaging with senior stakeholders, asking the right questions, and helping clients articulate their needs — you’ll feel at home here.
Responsibilities
- Own and manage the early stages of the client engagement lifecycle.
- Act as the primary point of contact for prospective clients during the first phases of engagement.
- Lead consultative discovery conversations to understand business goals, challenges, and technical context.
- Translate client pain points into clearly defined business and technical opportunities aligned with Crunch’s services (AI/ML, Cloud/DevOps, Custom Software, Dedicated Teams).
- Collaborate closely with technical experts and pre-sales engineers to shape solution approaches, proposals, and pitch materials.
- Build and maintain a healthy pipeline of qualified opportunities, ensuring accurate tracking and insights in CRM systems.
- Engage with C-level executives, CTOs, and technology leaders, clearly articulating Crunch’s value proposition.
- Stay informed about market trends, client needs, and competitor positioning to support effective engagement strategies.
Requirements
- 1+ years of experience in B2B roles such as Customer Engagement, Business Development, Sales, or Consulting within Software Development, IT Services, or SaaS.
- Solid understanding of the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and modern technology concept.
- Familiarity with AI/ML, Cloud platforms, and Data-related solutions — you don’t need to code, but you should speak the language of tech leaders.
- Proven “hunter” mindset with the ability to generate leads and open new accounts.
- Experience navigating complex organizations and engaging decision-makers (CTOs, VPs of Engineering, Product Leaders).
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English.
- Strong presentation and negotiation abilities.
- Experience working with CRM tools (e.g., HubSpot, Salesforce) and structured sales processes.
Benefits
- 18 paid vacation days per year (available after 6 months).
- 10 paid sick days annually — no medical certificate required.
- An extra paid day off for marriage, childbirth, or bereavement.
- English courses.
- Educational budget.
- Flexible work options — fully remote, office in Lviv, or hybrid.
Why People Like Working Here
- Real ownership over your work and clear impact on company growth.
- Global clients and meaningful, high-value sales cycles.
- Flexible, remote-first culture built on trust and transparency.
- Strong collaboration between sales, delivery, and engineering teams.
- Focus on learning, development, and long-term career growth.
