About the Role

CloudBees is expanding adoption of CloudBees Unify across commercial and enterprise accounts. This Sales Engineer partners with Account Executives to prove value fast, remove technical risk, and guide customers from interest to production with a clear path to outcomes (velocity, reliability, governance, and platform standardization).

Key Responsibilities

Own technical outcomes in the sales cycle

• Lead discovery to understand CI/CD, platform engineering, governance, and developer experience goals.
• Translate business goals into a technical success plan, evaluation criteria, and measurable outcomes.
• Run technical win strategy per opportunity, including solution mapping, risk identification, and close plan support.

Demonstrate CloudBees Unify with credibility

• Deliver tailored demos and workshops that align to the customer’s current toolchain and pain points.
• Connect Unify capabilities to real workflows: pipelines, policy enforcement, artifact management, orchestration, security posture, and platform standardization.
• Position Unify alongside or in place of legacy approaches (Jenkins, fragmented toolchains, DIY platform efforts) in a pragmatic, phased way.

Drive Proof of Value (PoV) and evaluations

• Design and run PoVs that prove ROI quickly (typically 30 to 60 days).
• Define success metrics, validate technical requirements, and coordinate hands-on enablement.
• Present findings and recommendations to technical and executive stakeholders.

Architect and guide solution design

• Produce high-level architectures, integration approaches, deployment options, and adoption plans.
• Advise on best practices for scaling CI/CD, governance, compliance, and platform operations.
• Partner with Product and Engineering to feedback market learnings and unblock edge cases.

Collaborate across the go-to-market team

• Partner tightly with AEs, CSMs, Product, and Marketing on account strategy and expansion.
• Support deal hygiene: technical qualification, security reviews, procurement support, and documentation.
• Contribute to enablement assets: demo patterns, reference architectures, competitive positioning.

Measures of success (first 6 to 12 months)

• Increased conversion of Unify evaluations to closed-won through strong PoV execution.
• Reduced technical risk and shortened time-to-decision for Unify opportunities.
• Repeatable demo/PoV playbooks that improve win rate and consistency.
• Strong cross-functional feedback loop improving product-market fit and competitive readiness.

Qualifications

Required:

• Familiarity with source control, build systems, artifact and container workflows, and deployment patterns.

Pre-sales and customer-facing strengths

• Proven ability to run complex technical conversations and influence multiple personas (DevOps, platform leads, security, engineering leadership).
• Strong demo and storytelling skills, including translating technical detail into business impact.
• Comfort operating in ambiguity and building a plan that creates momentum and measurable progress.

Preferred (not required):
