Create technical proposals and RFP responses covering Qumulo's architecture, data protection, and performance at scale
Drive whitespace reviews, account mapping, and business planning to sharpen regional forecast accuracy and respectfully pressure-test customer technical direction

A consultative, value-based-sales approach with a track record of taking enterprise deals from first pitch to technical champion alignment
Willingness to travel up to 30% across the region for customer meetings, PoC setups, and partner events
Bonus points for: familiarity with the regional landscape, whether green/hyperscale data centers and high-density cooling (liquid, submerged, free-air) or the connectivity ecosystem (FLAP-D hubs, AMS-IX and other internet exchanges), experience delivering scale-out storage into Media & Entertainment (VFX), Life Sciences (genomics), Energy, or HPC/AI, plus awareness of EU data privacy and sovereign cloud requirements
Applicants must be located, and have the right to work, in Belgium.
