About the role
This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a PreSales Systems Engineer based in Canada.
This role sits at the intersection of advanced technical architecture and customer-facing solution design, supporting complex data storage and workflow environments across industries such as media, entertainment, and large-scale data management. You will act as a trusted technical advisor throughout the sales cycle, translating customer requirements into scalable, high-performance storage and data solutions. The position involves designing end-to-end architectures, delivering technical presentations, and demonstrating how solutions integrate with third-party technologies. You will collaborate closely with sales teams, product managers, and clients to build proof-of-concept environments and guide solution implementation strategies. A strong understanding of storage systems, networks, and data workflows is essential to succeed in this highly consultative, pre-sales environment. This is a customer-facing, solution-driven role where technical depth and communication skills are equally critical.
Accountabilities
Lead technical pre-sales activities including solution presentations, product demonstrations, and architecture discussions with customers and partners. Gather and analyze functional and technical requirements to design end-to-end system architectures tailored to customer environments. Develop detailed solution designs, including technical documentation, Visio diagrams, and reference architectures to support sales proposals. Act as a subject matter expert on storage, data management, and workflow solutions across backup, archive, and media environments. Collaborate with sales, product, and engineering teams to develop proof-of-concept and implementation strategies. Support RFP/RFI responses and contribute to winning technical recommendations through strong solution positioning. Maintain strong customer relationships while identifying business needs and translating them into scalable technical solutions. Participate in sales pipeline reviews and ensure accurate documentation of customer technical environments in CRM systems.
Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or related field, or equivalent experience with 8+ years in pre-sales technical roles. Strong expertise in storage technologies including NAS, SAN, DAS, software-defined storage, and archival systems. Deep understanding of networking concepts (OSI model, FC architectures, topologies, etc.) and enterprise IT infrastructure. Experience with data management workflows, backup strategies, and information lifecycle management. Knowledge of Media & Entertainment workflows (broadcast, post-production, VFX) is highly desirable. Strong scripting skills (e.g., Python, shell scripting) and familiarity with Linux, UNIX, Windows, and Mac environments. Excellent communication, presentation, and consultative selling skills with the ability to influence technical stakeholders. Strong analytical, problem-solving, and architectural design capabilities in complex enterprise environments.
Benefits
Competitive salary aligned with experience in enterprise pre-sales engineering roles. Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance coverage. Flexible work arrangements supporting work-life balance. Opportunities for professional development, certifications, and technical training. Exposure to cutting-edge data storage, media workflows, and global enterprise customers. Collaborative, high-performance technical sales environment with career growth opportunities.
