About the role

  • As a Senior Enterprise Pre-Sales Systems Engineer at Veeam, you will serve as a trusted technical and strategic advisor to some of the world's largest organizations facing complex data resilience and cyber recovery challenges.
  • You will engage deeply with both technical practitioners and executive stakeholders - translating business risk into architecture, and architecture into outcomes.
  • This is a high-visibility, high-impact role that blends deep hands-on technical expertise with executive-level influence.

Responsibilities

  • Lead complex enterprise pre-sales engagements end-to-end, including discovery, solution design, architecture validation, competitive differentiation, and technical closure.
  • Own the technical relationship throughout the sales cycle, acting as the primary point of contact for engineering and architecture stakeholders on strategic accounts.
  • Deliver high-impact technical demonstrations, workshops, and executive-level presentations that connect Veeam's capabilities to business value and cyber risk reduction.
  • Develop and deliver compelling narratives that position Veeam as the strategic data resilience platform of choice across competitive displacement and greenfield opportunities.
  • Design, manage, and execute proof-of-concepts (POCs) that are tightly aligned to customer success criteria, operational realities, and measurable exit conditions.
  • Build and configure representative lab environments - including virtualized infrastructure, backup repositories, cloud integration, and application protection - to demonstrate real-world capabilities under customer-representative conditions.
  • Document POC findings, architecture decisions, and business outcomes in executive-ready format to accelerate technical closure.
  • Partner closely with account executives, channel partners, product management, and engineering to influence solution architecture, roadmap direction, and customer outcomes.
  • Mentor and support less experienced SE team members, contributing to technical enablement and team capability development.
  • Fertility, adoption, and surrogacy support through Maven, plus paid volunteer time
