The role combines technical expertise in DevOps and SDLC tools with customer-facing responsibilities.

The position requires a seasoned professional with 10+ years of experience in pre-sales engineering or related fields. You'll be working with enterprise-level clients like LinkedIn, Google, and Netflix, helping them understand and implement Gradle's solutions.
