About the role

A Senior Sales Engineer (SE) is an outstanding individual who combines the communications skills to build strong professional relationships with the technical skills to develop compelling network solutions that accomplish our customers’ business objectives. The SE partners with an Account Manager to drive revenue growth for Juniper by delivering business success to our customers and partners.

Daily activities include direct customer and partner engagement: comprehensive discovery, information sharing, and collaborative solution design; proposal development; solution demonstrations; proof-of-concept test design and execution. We also work closely within Juniper to highlight emerging customer requirements and use cases, convey the competitive landscape, and coordinate with Juniper and partner professional services organizations to ensure implementations meet or exceed customer expectations. Additionally, we invest in technical, professional, and leadership development through self-study and formal training.

If you have over-the-top technical capability and curiosity, if you can influence both technical and business stakeholders by translating business goals and challenges to technical solutions while differentiating Juniper from challenging solutions, if your interpersonal and high-impact presentation skills evoke passion and confidence, if you’re a born problem-solver that loves to get into the details and a burning desire to address the hard problems in a constantly evolving, industry, Juniper Networks is the place for you!
