Works across AI platform architecture, GPU infrastructure, MLOps, customer advisory, solution engineering, and commercial proposal development.

Solutions include OICM, Agentic Fabric, MLOps, GPU infrastructure, Kubernetes, AI storage and networking, air-gapped deployments, AI services, and agentic workflows.

Core responsibilities

  • Own technical pre-sales from early discovery through solution definition, proposal, demonstration, validation, and delivery handover.
  • Lead discovery and translate customer business, workload, data, model, security, and operational requirements into practical solutions.
  • Design and size GPU infrastructure and architectures across compute, networking, storage, Kubernetes, orchestration, model serving, training, and fine-tuning.
  • Support AI platform service offerings and architect high-speed networking and AI-optimized storage solutions.
  • Demonstrate and customize the platform, technical walkthroughs, and proof-of-value scenarios for customer use cases.
  • Advise on agents, RAG, model adaptation, evaluation, guardrails, and enterprise integration.
  • Create proposals, sizing models, BOMs/BoQs, diagrams, service definitions, assumptions, and handover material.
  • Contribute to RFP/RFI/tender responses, customer presentations, opportunity shaping, vendor validation, and reusable pre-sales assets.
  • Travel to customer sites across the UAE for workshops, demonstrations, technical validation, proof-of-value work, and executive discussions.

Required qualifications

  • 7–10 years in pre-sales/solutions engineering, AI platform or MLOps architecture, infrastructure/systems engineering, or a similar customer-facing technical role.
  • Strong hands-on background across AI platforms, MLOps, Kubernetes, compute, networking, storage, virtualization, and data centers.
  • Experience with discovery, solution sizing, proposals, BOM/BoQ creation, RFP/RFI responses, demonstrations, and technical handover.
  • Practical Kubernetes knowledge spanning production cluster resources, security, scheduling, quotas, access control, and observability.
  • Understanding of GPU orchestration, resource scheduling, multi-tenancy, workload isolation, and capacity planning.
  • Ability to design and size across platform, compute, storage, and networking and to work independently in complex sales cycles.
  • Strong communication, commercial awareness, technical documentation, and customer-facing skills.

Preferred qualifications

  • Enterprise, government, regulated, or sovereign AI experience is preferred.
  • GPU infrastructure, GPU scheduling, model serving, high-speed networking, enterprise storage, or secure and air-gapped deployment experience is preferred.
  • AI-agent, copilot, RAG, agentic workflow, document intelligence, or AI automation experience is preferred.
