Sales Engineer-Singapore

This role has been designed as ‘Hybrid’ with an expectation that you will work on average 2 days per week from an HPE office.

Job Description:

Morpheus Data is the multi-cloud management solution recently purchased by HPE . The product is core to many of HPE's ongoing multi-cloud sales initiatives and the platform used as part of the Private Cloud solutions. As part of the expansion in the EMEA team to support the sales of the Morpheus product, a role has opened for a Senior Sales engineer for the region.  

Working as part of a team focused on the region, the role requires a combination of presales skills, practical technical skills and technical leadership skills. In this role you will work closely with the Regional Sales Manager to grow the region, through engaging with the HPE local sales teams and direct customer contact, achieve sales and revenue goals, evaluate technical requirements of new sales opportunities, and develop technical solutions that successfully meet the needs of prospective customers. 

In this role, you will work closely with the HPE account and specialist sales representatives. You’ll guide the technical sales processes, including Initial Demonstrations, and if required deep-dive demonstrations of our offerings, deliver proofs of concept, managing and responding to RFP /RFI's and assist defining customer requirements for successful professional services delivery.
You will also work with our ecosystem of 75+ integrations and applications including OpenStack, VMware, Pivotal, SaltStack, ServiceNow, and more. You must have a practical understanding of cloud computing architecture with experience designing, deploying, and operating self-service provisioning and software automation. Experience both as a vendor and end-user customer are a plus to gain credibility when working alongside others undertaking digital transformation projects.

Key Responsibilities:
• Collaborate with the Regional Account Executive to manage complex sales cycles and secure the “technical close.”
• Partner with the HPE Sales Team to build and implement strategies to grow our customer base and revenue in the region.

• Demonstrate the Morpheus solution to customers through initial demos and in-depth targeted use cases.
• Present technical proposals to existing and prospective customers.
• Perform direct architecture gathering, design, and presentation of solutions to meet customer needs.
• Research and respond to technical sections of RFIs and RFPs.
• Run presales proofs of concepts, evaluations, and benchmarks.
• Work as part of wider Morpheus SE team, Share knowledge, document customer success stories, and help maintain the team lab environment.
• Provide product feedback to internal teams.
• Conduct workshops and facilitate engineering and presales contacts with the partner ecosystem.
• Own and meet a revenue quota, and perform regular reviews and reports on partner opportunities.
• Facilitate communication between partners, Morpheus product teams, customers, and field sales teams.

Required Skills:
• 5+ years of experience in cloud architecture, sales engineering, or solutions architect roles with a top-tier systems vendor or customer.
• 8+ years of experience in sales or systems engineering, including building and implementing virtualization and cloud computing solutions.
• Understanding of core compute, storage, and networking topology and devices.
• Advanced knowledge of at least one virtualization platform such as VMware, Hyper-V, Openstack, or Nutanix.
• Passion for learning new technologies and trends, with the ability to rapidly absorb and apply new information.
• Strong analytical skills and a natural ability to solve complex technical and business problems.
• Excellent presentation skills and storytelling techniques.
• Superior time and task management skills.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills.
• Willingness to travel 25% to 50%, mainly within the APAC region, with occasional travel to other regions.

Preferred Skills:
• Practical experience with Morpheus, either as a consultant or an Admin user.
• Experience with Kubernetes and containerization.
• Advanced knowledge of public clouds, including AWS, Azure, and GCP.
