Application for

Head of Solutions

at Ramp

I've spent 7 years building the future of AI-powered technical GTM in financial services. Here's why I want to do it at Ramp.

01 — The Thesis

The next generation of enterprise sales will be won by teams that use AI to move faster than their competitors. The best Solutions teams don't just support sales - they become the product's most compelling proof point.

At Mastercard, I led technical GTM for platforms that touch millions of consumers and billions in transactions. But more importantly, I've been building the future of how we sell and enable complex technology - with AI at the center.

04 — The Vision

What I'd do as Head of Solutions at Ramp. A 90-day plan for scaling technical GTM.

This is a hypothesis, not a prescription. Real plans come from listening first.

Day 1Day 30Day 60Day 90

Objective

Understand the current state before changing anything.

Actions

  • Ride-alongs with Solutions Consultants on live deals
  • Shadow Technical Consulting on implementations
  • 1:1s with every team member + key cross-functional partners
  • Deep dive into demo environments, tools, and frameworks
  • Analyze win/loss data and implementation success metrics
  • Map the current pre-sales → post-sales handoff process

Key Questions

  • Where are deals stalling in technical evaluation?
  • What's the gap between what we sell and what we deliver?
  • Which frameworks are working? Which are shelf-ware?
  • How does product feedback flow from field to roadmap?

Ramp-Specific

I'd pay special attention to how Ramp's 30+ ERP integrations (NetSuite, Sage Intacct, etc.) are being demoed and delivered—this is where enterprise deals are won or lost.

05 — Let's Talk

I built this in a weekend.
Imagine what I could build for Ramp.

I'm ready to discuss how my experience in AI-powered technical GTM can help Ramp scale Solutions for the enterprise market.

Because the best way to show you can build
is to actually build something.
