Solutions Delivery Engineer

ware developers, rely on Sonatype to optimize their software supply chains.

If you want to have a greater impact in the open source ecosystem by enabling our Customers to use new technology to build better software faster - then you should keep reading. Our ultimate goal is to ensure our customers maximize the value of their investment in the Sonatype Nexus Platform. Solutions Delivery Engineers (SDE) deliver specific services to accelerate time-to-value by creatively overcoming technical and product adoption challenges. As an SDE, you will also identify common patterns and/or obstacles customers are facing to influence the evolution of the product portfolio and best practices.

Why this role matters

• Our customers are enterprise architects, security officers, developers, DevOps managers. We offer them subscriptions to valuable DevSecOps solutions that work. As long as our customers value their investment, they continue to renew and expand their deployments. No value = no growth and no renewal.

• Fortunately, our customers find us easy to work with (as reported via customer sat surveys). They trust Sonatype and value their investments, as demonstrated by our 90%+ renewal rate -- one of the highest renewal rates in the software subscription business. We choose not to rest on our laurels. If our customers are not properly deployed, optimized, or have compromised rollouts due to their lack of time, technical know-how/resources, or understanding of best practices - it will inhibit our mutual ability to achieve success. That is why this role is so important.

• Act as the voice of the customer - use your insights to help us drive improvements and influence product roadmap.

• Ensure customers are SUCCESSFUL and DELIGHTED with Sonatype products and services, not merely satisfied
