Solutions Engineer

About the Role Selector is seeking a Solutions Engineer to serve as a technical resource for its operational analytics platform across networks, applications, and security workflows. The role is hands-on, involving platform integration, writing Python code, and maintaining automation scripts, with leadership in deploying solutions at customer sites. The incumbent will enable customers to use, understand, and extend the platform, and will collaborate closely with sales and partners on pre-sales activities. What You'll Do

• Serve as a technical resource on Selector's operational analytics solution for networks, applications, and security workflows.
• Take a hands-on role in integrating the platform, contributing feature-level Python code and maintaining scripts and automation workflows daily.
• Lead or co-lead deployments of Selector's solution at customer sites, gathering and translating data, workflow, and analytics requirements.
• Ensure customers are thoroughly enabled for use, advanced understanding, and self-serve extensions of the platform.
• Collaborate with the sales team and partners for pre-sales activities, including technical demos and solution scoping.
• Own design, development, and execution plans for POC engagements and drive them through to successful completion.
• Act as a voice of the customer internally — contributing well-defined product enhancement proposals and participating in customer review cycles.
• Leverage AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) to accelerate integration work, automate repetitive tasks, and improve the quality and speed of technical deliverables. What We're Looking For
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
• 3–6 years of professional experience in a solutions engineering, systems engineering, or technical customer-facing role.
• Strong Python coding proficiency with a comfort level for writing and debugging code daily as a core part of the job — this is not an occasional scripting role.
• Active use of AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or OpenAI Codex as part of everyday development workflow.
• Hands-on experience with Ansible and/or Go.
• Working experience with public cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, and Azure.
• Hands-on experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and YAML-based configurations.
• Proficiency in designing and executing SQL queries to extract, validate, and analyze data; comfortable working in Jupyter notebooks.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to translate technical concepts for varied audiences.
• Meaningful experience with networking technologies (Data Center, WAN, SD-WAN, WiFi, DNS/DHCP, Load Balancing).
• Familiarity with network analytics tooling and operational monitoring workflows.
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple customer engagements simultaneously and drive projects to completion.
• Genuine enthusiasm for customer-facing work — energized by working directly with operators and engineering teams, not just the technical work itself. Compensation & Benefits
• Salary: $140,000 – $170,000 per year.
• Benefits: discretionary PTO policy, health insurance, 401k, opportunity for a bonus, and more.
