What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values innovation and collaboration, offering opportunities for growth and the chance to make a significant impact.

I am a results-driven Technical Pre-Sales Engineer with a strong background in infrastructure monitoring, networking, cybersecurity, and enterprise solutions. My expertise lies in translating complex technical concepts into business value, enabling clients to understand their requirements and delivering tailored solutions that meet their needs. I pride myself on being a strong communicator with a hands-on approach to problem-solving, ensuring seamless solution adoption and high levels of customer satisfaction.

Throughout my career, I have partnered with clients to conduct discovery and scoping sessions, identifying key business challenges and technical requirements. I have successfully delivered product demonstrations tailored to client use cases, showcasing the capabilities of various monitoring and observability toolsets. My experience includes leading assessments and Proof-of-Concepts (PoCs) to validate solutions in client environments, demonstrating tangible business value while gathering and incorporating client feedback throughout the pre-sales cycle.

In my previous roles, I have collaborated with cross-functional teams, provided guidance and enablement for smooth handoffs, and ensured client self-sufficiency post-sale. I continuously stay aligned with industry trends and best practices, enhancing solution positioning and technical credibility to drive pre-sales success.
