As a Sr Sales Engineer, you will partner closely with Account Executives to drive new customer opportunities and expansions by delivering tailored technical solutions. You will support opportunity execution end‑to‑end, engage a wide range of technical and business stakeholders, and develop credibility as a trusted technical advisor to customers and partners.
This role emphasizes strong technical execution, collaboration, and growing ownership of account‑level technical strategy, with guidance and support from senior SEs and leadership.

Provide expert, tailored technical support throughout the sales cycle, including discovery, solution design, demos, and proofs of concept.
Support technical strategy for enterprise opportunities in partnership with the Account Executive, contributing to deal progression and win strategy.
Enable customers to integrate Cohesity products into existing production environments, responding to technical requests in a timely and professional manner.
Lead and support technical engagements such as product demonstrations, workshops, white papers, proposals, and evaluations.
Identify customer requirements and risk areas, helping shape proofs of concept that highlight Cohesity’s value in cyber resilience and data security.
Assist with competitive displacement conversations by understanding customer environments and positioning Cohesity effectively.
Collaborate cross‑functionally with Product Management, Engineering, and Support to relay customer feedback and contribute to product improvements.
Provide post‑sales technical assistance or project support when needed to ensure successful outcomes and customer satisfaction.
WE’D LOVE TO TALK TO YOU IF YOU HAVE MANY OF THE FOLLOWING:
Proven experience in pre‑sales Sales Engineering or Solutions Consulting supporting infrastructure, data protection, security, or cloud platforms in enterprise environments.
Hands‑on experience with backup, recovery, data protection, storage, or cyber resilience technologies across on‑prem, hybrid, and cloud architectures.

Familiarity with competitive technologies and an interest in developing competitive positioning skills.
Experience supporting proofs of concept, evaluations, and technical decision processes.
Ability to translate technical architecture into clear customer value and business outcomes.
Experience partnering with Account Executives to support complex, multi‑stakeholder sales cycles.
Demonstrated ability to leverage AI tools to enhance productivity, streamline workflows, and support decision making
Understanding of enterprise buying processes and deal dynamics.
Strong communication and presentation skills, able to clearly convey technical concepts to business and technical audiences.
Collaborative mindset with the ability to manage complex customer situations professionally and confidently.
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or equivalent practical experience.
Industry certifications in cloud, data, or adjacent technologies are a plus.
