About the role

Role Overview

As a Solutions Engineer (SE) at Testkube, you’ll own the technical journey from first touch through customer success. This role goes beyond demos—you will guide technical evaluations, support POCs, and help drive adoption for customers using cloud-native testing orchestration.

You’ll Work With

  • A small, experienced team of Account Executives
  • Customers’ DevOps, Platform, and QA/SDET practitioners and leadership
  • A customer-facing DevOps deployment support team (so you can focus on solution architecture and relationships)

Responsibilities

  • Account ownership (First Touch → Success):
    • Participate in discovery and lead deep-dive demos
    • Manage technical evaluation and validate technical win paths
  • POC Support:
    • Align success criteria
    • Consult on architecture and evaluation plans
    • Provide enablement and remove technical roadblocks
    • Engage relevant stakeholders
  • Voice of the Customer:
    • Collect feedback and use cases to influence product decisions
    • Share patterns and learnings across the customer/user base
  • Success & Adoption:
    • Partner with the Account Manager to ensure adoption goes beyond the POC
  • Team Collaboration:
    • Collaborate with other SEs to share knowledge and ensure team-wide wins

Requirements

  • 2+ years in a Solutions Engineering role
  • Proven track record supporting multi-month POCs
  • Experience working with formal POCs (not just trials)
  • Strong soft skills: high EQ, great storytelling, and ability to communicate with both senior engineers and senior leadership

Technical Requirements (familiarity with at least one in priority order)

  • Hands-on experience with Kubernetes (K8s) and Docker architectures
  • Experience with managed Kubernetes platforms such as EKS, GKE, VKS
  • Experience building test automation pipelines or infrastructure
  • Deep understanding of CI/CD tools: Jenkins, Argo CD, GitHub
  • Or a proven track record of quickly learning new technologies

Interview Process

  • Initial Screen: background and motivation
  • Meet the Team: discussions with the team you’ll work with
  • Practical Exam (hands-on):
    • Discovery
    • Tailored technical demo
    • Architecture & objections scenario (whiteboard style)
  • Meet the Founders

Work Style / Logistics

  • Remote-first, async-friendly
  • Work is synced during EST hours, with respect for personal time
