Systems Sales Engineer

The Opportunity

Are you a persuasive communicator with a strong technical background in data center technologies, virtualization, and a passion for building client relationships?

If so, you will thrive in a dynamic and collaborative environment at Nutanix, where you will support mid-market healthcare clients while leveraging innovative solutions in private and public cloud technologies and enjoying flexibility in your remote work setup.

About The Team

The Systems Sales Engineer will join a dynamic and collaborative team focused on supporting mid-market healthcare customers. This team, integral to Nutanix, emphasizes teamwork, adaptability, and a strong customer-centric approach, reflecting a culture built on camaraderie and support.

The mission of the team is to deliver exceptional technical support and solutions tailored to the specific needs of healthcare clients, leveraging innovative technologies in private and public cloud environments.

You will report to the Senior Manager, Systems Engineering, who values quality over speed in the hiring process. Their leadership style is supportive, emphasizing teamwork and shared goals while fostering a busy yet engaging work environment.

The work setup for this role is primarily remote, allowing team members the flexibility to work from various locations without a strict in-office mandate; there is no requirement to be in the office on specific days of the week.

While much of the work can be conducted remotely, the expectation is that the new hire will travel for face-to-face interactions with customers, with the understanding that it is unlikely for any Sales Engineers to be away from the office for more than four out of ten business days.

This position is working remotely but needs to be based in Houston, Austin, New Orleans or Baton Rouge.

Your Role

• Support mid-market healthcare clients in the central region by managing technical inquiries and providing tailored solutions.
• Collaborate with existing Sales Engineers to develop and execute territory strategies effectively.
• Conduct technical interviews for prospective candidates, contributing to the recruitment efforts of the team.
• Engage in remote and on-site meetings with clients to maintain and enhance customer relationships.
• Travel approximately 40% of the time for client engagements, ensuring face-to-face interactions as needed.
• Stay updated on Nutanix products and relevant industry trends to provide informed technical support.
• Assist in transitioning responsibilities from the outgoing Sales Engineer to ensure continuity of client service.
• Foster collaboration within the team to enhance knowledge sharing and optimize workload management.

What You Will Bring

• 5+ years of experience as a Sales Engineer, particularly in data center technologies and virtualization.
• Strong understanding of server storage and networking concepts.
• Familiarity with public cloud technologies is advantageous but not mandatory.
• Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills to establish rapport with clients.
• Technical knowledge in security and its application in sales discussions.
• Bachelor's degree in a relevant field preferred, though not required.
• Ability to manage client technical inquiries and develop innovative solutions.
• Willingness to travel approximately 30% for client engagements and meetings.
