• Engage with customers to explore observability, SIEM, log management, and related topics, and translate technical details into business value.
• Work with developers on APIs and integration scenarios, and communicate the big picture to executives.
• Act as a hands-on problem solver, advisor, and storyteller to guide customers through modern observability.
• Contribute to shaping the product roadmap and, when appropriate, help close deals.

Qualifications

• Pre-sales experience.
• Ability to write real code in Java, Go, or Python.
• Comfortable with Kubernetes and cloud environments.
• Experience delivering demos, running PoCs, and engaging in discussions about Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, SIEMs, or log management.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to share opinions in a way that resonates with diverse audiences.
