Senior DevOps Pre-Sales Solutions Engineer
 
London (Hybrid - 3 days per week in the office)
- UNITED KINGDOM
 
Are you a high-impact  DevOps Pre-Sales professional  who thrives at the intersection of deep technical expertise and enterprise sales?
 
Do you already operate in a  customer-facing DevOps pre-sales role  - leading technical wins, running proof-of-concepts, and shaping complex DevSecOps conversations at enterprise level?  If yes, this could be your next major career move.
 
About the Company:
Our client is a leading global software platform transforming how modern organisations build, secure, and deliver software across DevOps, DevSecOps, and MLOps environments. Trusted by thousands of enterprises worldwide - including many of the world's largest organisations - their platform plays a mission-critical role in securing and accelerating software delivery from code to production.  This is not a small-scale vendor role. This is software supply chain at global enterprise level.
 
Strict Requirement  -  Who This Role Is For
 
This opportunity is  ONLY  open to professionals who:
  • Are  currently working in a DevOps Pre-Sales / Solutions Engineering role
  • Have a  strong hands-on DevOps technical background
  • Have personally  led technical evaluations, POCs and technical wins
  • Are comfortable operating in  complex enterprise sales cycles
This is  not:
  • A pure DevOps engineer role
  • A post-sales Customer Success role
  • A generic Solutions Architect role
  • A role for someone trying to "move into pre-sales"
You must already be operating successfully in DevOps-focused technical pre-sales.
 
The Role
As Senior Solutions Engineer, you will act as a  trusted technical advisor to strategic enterprise customers. You will own the technical strategy from first conversation through to successful proof-of-value and technical close.  You will:
  • Partner with enterprise customers to design secure software supply chain architectures
  • Deliver compelling deep-dive technical presentations and live demonstrations
  • Lead and own end-to-end proof-of-concept engagements
  • Drive the technical win in complex enterprise sales cycles
  • Design and size solutions based on customer environments
  • Deliver technical enablement to customers and partners
  • Represent the company at industry events
  • Provide structured customer insight back to Product & Engineering
This is high-visibility, high-impact, and highly strategic.
 
What You Must Bring
Experience:
  • 5+ years in Solutions Engineering / DevOps Pre-Sales / Technical Sales
  • Demonstrated success owning technical wins in enterprise environments
  • Minimum 2.5-year average tenure per employer
DevOps Technical Depth (essential):
  • CI/CD pipeline architecture and integrations
  • Git-based platforms (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket)
  • DevSecOps tooling and security integrations
  • SCA, SAST, SBOM management
  • Container security
  • Strong understanding of modern cloud and distributed systems
Highly desirable:
  • Background in software development
  • Exposure to MLOps
You must be equally credible in front of:
  • Heads of DevOps
  • Platform Engineering teams
  • Security leaders
  • C-level technical stakeholders
Why This Role Stands Out
  • Global enterprise exposure
  • Complex, intellectually challenging sales cycles
  • Cutting-edge DevSecOps and software supply chain technology
  • High-calibre peer group
  • Strong career progression potential
This is a role for professionals who enjoy being the most technically credible person in the room - while also influencing major commercial decisions.
 
If you are an experienced  DevOps Pre-Sales Solutions Engineer  ready to step into a more strategic, enterprise-focused environment, I'd be very interested in speaking with you
