What You'll Do As EMEA Director Of Solutions Engineering

As Director of Solutions Engineering you will be leading the EMEA Specialist Solutions Engineering team. The Specialist Solutions Engineering Team is a high-impact pre-sales group of Solutions Architects and Specialist SEs with deep domain expertise.

This position requires a blend of technical excellence, strategic vision, and leadership to ensure that the team not only delivers cutting-edge solutions but also acts as trusted advisors to customers and the broader technology community. Solutions Architects on this team are expected to bring a broad and adaptable technology skill set, enabling them to engage across multiple domains, influence industry trends, and guide customers through complex digital transformations.

As this position is central to many processes and initiatives inside the EMEA region, key responsibilities involve amongst others collaboration with cross-functional teams.

As a leader you foster a strong and collaborative culture within the team. The team consists of industry veterans to early-in-careers and everything in between. You empower the people in your team to learn, grow and develop themselves through mentorship and coaching at their pace, commensurate with the position and level of their career.

As the EMEA leader of the Specialists team, a key aspect of the role is to ensure we have a strong alignment with the Products Business Units. This includes helping co-defining enablement strategies, honing product feature requests processes and influencing product roadmaps to align with our customers’ needs in EMEA.

Key Responsibilities:

Represent customer needs during product discussions to influence development priorities.
Optimize pre-sales processes to improve efficiency and scalability.
Ensure alignment between technical solutions and business value propositions.
Engage with customers and prospects with a multi-level selling approach
Oversee recruitment, onboarding, and professional development for team members

Skill Requirements:

Curiosity and Learning Agility

Proven ability to inspire and manage high-performing teams.
Familiarity with sales techniques like MEDDICC, Solution Selling and Champion Building.
Analytical mindset with a data-driven approach to decision-making.
Previous experience in scaling engineering teams within high-growth SaaS companies.

What Makes Cloudflare Special?

We’re not just a highly ambitious, large-scale technology company. We’re a highly ambitious, large-scale technology company with a soul. Fundamental to our mission to help build a better Internet is protecting the free and open Internet.

Project Galileo: Since 2014, we've equipped more than 2,400 journalism and civil society organizations in 111 countries with powerful tools to defend themselves against attacks that would otherwise censor their work, technology already used by Cloudflare’s enterprise customers--at no cost.

Athenian Project: In 2017, we created the Athenian Project to ensure that state and local governments have the highest level of protection and reliability for free, so that their constituents have access to election information and voter registration. Since the project, we've provided services to more than 425 local government election websites in 33 states.

1.1.1.1: We released 1.1.1.1 to help fix the foundation of the Internet by building a faster, more secure and privacy-centric public DNS resolver. This is available publicly for everyone to use - it is the first consumer-focused service Cloudflare has ever released. Here’s the deal - we don’t store client IP addresses never, ever. We will continue to abide by our privacy commitment and ensure that no user data is sold to advertisers or used to target consumers.
