• Develop and maintain technical resources including public and internal documentation, knowledge-base articles, learning materials, reference architectures, blogs, and benchmark results.
• Help define scalable technical solutions and best practices for deploying and operating distributed database environments.
• Contribute to team growth by participating in hiring, onboarding, mentoring, and knowledge sharing.
• Participate in scheduled and on-call coverage to support high-quality 24/7 service in a global environment.
• Travel regionally for customer and team engagements, with up to approximately 35% onsite travel expected.

Requirements:

• 5+ years of experience in Professional Services, Technical Support, Technical Account Management, Engineering/SRE, Project Management, or a comparable technical role.
• At least 5 years of relevant industry experience implementing, operating, or supporting scalable and fault-tolerant distributed database management systems.
• Strong technical breadth and depth across areas such as DBMS, OLAP, cloud and SaaS platforms, distributed systems, Linux/Unix, Kubernetes, system or network administration, and big data.
• Proven experience leading and delivering large-scale technical projects involving multiple experienced engineers and stakeholders.
• Strong expertise with at least one major public cloud provider, such as AWS, GCP, or Azure, including infrastructure-as-a-service environments.
• Experience working directly with enterprise customers and providing technical oversight, architectural guidance, migrations, or Proofs of Concept.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Strong customer focus, collaboration skills, and the ability to build trusted relationships across customers, partners, Engineering, Sales, and Support teams.
• Self-driven, curious, adaptable, and committed to continuous technical learning.
• Comfortable working in a global, distributed environment with scheduling and on-call requirements.
