Senior Partner Solutions Engineer

About This Opportunity

Our talent team is representing a confidential enterprise infrastructure organization in their search for a Senior Partner Solutions Engineer. This is a deeply technical role focused on deployment architecture and field enablement for software-defined infrastructure solutions running on partner and customer-selected hardware platforms.

You'll serve as a subject matter expert at the intersection of solution architecture, field engineering, and strategic customer engagement. This position requires someone who can move fluidly between strategic architecture discussions and hands-on technical problem solving, providing guidance to sales engineers, partners, and customers on complex deployments.

Responsibilities

• Serve as the primary technical authority for partner-based deployment models and hardware platform integrations
• Act as an escalation point and trusted advisor for sales engineers designing solutions on partner hardware
• Participate in strategic customer campaigns, demonstrating technical and economic value propositions
• Size and architect solutions based on customer workloads, performance objectives, capacity requirements and infrastructure constraints
• Develop clear performance, scalability, and resiliency expectations across supported hardware configurations
• Analyze how server, networking, storage media, and configuration choices affect platform performance and customer experience
• Recommend and validate platform customizations for strategic opportunities, understanding downstream impacts on performance, supportability, and operations
• Guide customers and partners through pre-installation readiness, infrastructure validation and deployment planning
• Lead troubleshooting of challenging deployment issues spanning hardware, networking, configuration and software layers
• Partner with support, engineering and product teams to resolve field issues and translate deployment experience into improvements
• Build repeatable architectures, deployment practices, sizing methodologies and technical guidance for the broader ecosystem

What We're Looking For

• Exceptional technical depth across enterprise infrastructure, with understanding of how hardware, networking and distributed software interact as complete systems
• Deep hands-on experience deploying, tuning and troubleshooting complex infrastructure in production data centers
• Strong knowledge of enterprise storage, distributed systems, software-defined infrastructure and server architecture
• Strong networking expertise, including ability to diagnose connectivity, configuration, topology and performance issues
• Ability to translate workload requirements into infrastructure sizing, architecture and realistic performance expectations
• Experience evaluating impact of hardware or configuration changes on system performance, reliability and operational behavior
• Strong troubleshooting instincts and ability to isolate complex problems across hardware, networking, firmware and software layers
• Credibility and communication skills to serve as technical authority for experienced sales engineers, customers and partner engineering teams
• Background in sales engineering, field engineering, professional services, implementation, support engineering or similar customer-facing technical role
• Experience with OEM server platforms and/or enterprise storage technologies highly desirable
• Ability to travel to strategic customer and partner locations across the United States as required

Ideal background: The strongest candidates combine the technical depth of a senior field, services or support engineer with the architecture skills and customer presence of an experienced sales engineer. Experience with enterprise infrastructure, storage, networking or software-defined systems is valuable, but most important is the ability to become a true platform expert who understands real-world system behavior and can guide technical teams with confidence.
