(Senior) Value Engineer

Your Impact Procurement is the single biggest cost position for industrial companies , often 60-70% of revenue. Tacto brings AI to strategic procurement so teams can move faster, become more resilient and unlock savings at scale. However, winning a customer takes more than a good platform. It takes a business case that convinces the C-level (primarily CEO and CFO). As our Value Engineer, you own exactly that. You quantify what Tacto is worth to a specific customer, prove it with their own data, and present it to the executives who sign. As the first Value Engineer in a dedicated segment, you are perfectly positioned to shape this function and maximize its impact. It's a hands-on, high-trust role at the center of our deals, ideal for someone who wants to combine procurement expertise, analytical depth, and the C-suite room in one role. Your Tasks Make our AI tangible: Tacto's AI runs billions of spend and finds savings customers didn't know existed. Your job is to demonstrate that with the customer's own data: make sure our solution fits their needs, they recognize the value, blockers are resolved, and the path to a successful implementation is set. Build the Business Case: Construct ROI analyses that stand up to C-level readout standards: real customer data, defensible baselines, scenarios and sensitivities. Your numbers directly shape whether deals are won. Bring the Procurement Expertise: You are the person with in-depth knowledge of categories, procurement organizations and processes. Dig through spend data for price anomalies, bundling opportunities and supplier alternatives, and turn insights into a value story. Own the C-Suite: Lead executive meetings with CEOs, CFOs and managing directors of industrial companies. You present, justify and land the case. Work as a Deal Team: You team up with an Account Executive on every deal: the AE owns the program and the customer relationship, you own the value. Together you form the deal team that gets customers over the line. Shape the Product: Be the voice of sales and customers towards the product team. Channel feedback, discuss roadmap trade-offs from a customer perspective, and know every Tacto module deep enough to demo solo.
