## Description

Join a team of Splunk Solutions Engineers as an Energy and Utilities Industry Solutions Engineer. This high-visibility, individual-contributor role reports into the Industry Solutions Engineering organisation, working closely with core Solutions Engineering, industry go-to-market leadership, and product teams.

**Your Impact** As an Energy and Utilities Industry Solutions Engineer, you will:

- Serve as the lead authority on energy and utilities to drive tangible customer use cases covering security, privacy, compliance, operational resiliency, and operational technology.

- Partner with Regional Sales Managers, AMER Solutions Engineers, and Solution Architects on energy and utility deals to provide deep domain and technical credibility in customer-facing meetings, workshops, and executive briefings.

- Translate CISO, CIO, CMO, COO, and CFO priorities into success criteria, POV delivery, and executive summaries.

- Collaborate with the Energy and Utility Industry Advisor on driving Splunk’s vision and value proposition in the marketplace.

- Build and maintain a Standard Outcome-based blueprint to develop a Solutions Engineer Kit containing discovery guides, Energy and Utility use cases, demo scripts, executive conversation guides, reference architectures, data source mapping, competitive battle cards, etc.

- Build energy and utility customised demos assets across security, privacy, compliance, operational resiliency, and operational technology.

- Act as the voice of the energy and utility vertical and provide feedback to product management, influencing the product roadmap based on customer and industry trends.

- Coach AMER Solutions Engineers on energy and utility architecture, buyer mapping, and business-case selling.

- Represent Splunk at Energy and Utility-focused industry events and user groups.

- Engage specialists, Industry Advisors, Solution Architects, and partners to land credible, compliant stories.

- Mentor core account Solutions Engineers on Energy and Utility domain knowledge to scale industry expertise across the broader Solutions Engineering organisation.

**Minimum Qualifications**

- 5+ years in solutions engineering, technical consulting, or pre-sales in Energy, Utility, and OT technologies.

- Executive presence and technical credibility with energy and utility technology and business leaders, including CIOs, CISOs, CTOs, infrastructure and application leaders, digital and IT operations leaders, and other executives.

- Force-multiplier mindset with AMER Solution Engineers.

- Willingness to travel to support customer engagement and industry events.

- Track record of rolling out a Go-To-Market for Energy and Utilities.

**Preferred Qualifications**

- Familiarity with energy and utility IT and OT systems.

- Industry interoperability, integration, and data exchange, including experience with standards and technologies such as NERC CIP, Multispeak, etc.

- Energy and Utility applications and ancillary systems.

- Energy and Utility business technology.

- Cyber and operational risk: Understanding of identity, access, privacy, third-party risk, device visibility, network context, and security telemetry across multiple environments.

**What Success Looks Like** Success in this role is measured by energy and utility revenue impact, repeatable vertical selling, and bench uplift. In the first two to four quarters, strong performance looks like:

- A small set of targeted, business-outcome energy and utility plays are live (security, compliance, operations, care continuity) with named buyers, success metrics, and data paths.

- GTM is faster because geo solution engineers and regional sales managers can run plays using use cases, demos, architectures, talk tracks, and POV kits you built , overlay is not required on every call.

- Strategic energy and utility opportunities move on outcomes: executive meetings, qualified discovery, and POVs that convert.

- Force multiplier: AMER Solutions Engineer quality on energy and utility deals is measurably higher than when you started.

**Benefits**

- Medical, dental, and vision insurance.

- 401(k) plan with a Cisco matching contribution.

- Paid parental leave.

- Short and long-term disability coverage.

- Basic life insurance.

- Paid time away (10 paid holidays per full calendar year, plus 1 floating holiday for non-exempt employees).
