  • Commvault professional, Microsoft Azure, VMware or AWS certifications.
  • Managed Service Provider experience.
  • Designing or sizing enterprise backup solutions.
  • Supporting technical Pre-Sales and delivering customer technical workshops.
  • Migrating customers between backup platforms or service providers.

Key Responsibilities Technical Support and Service Delivery:

  • Own complex incidents, problems and escalations, troubleshooting across backup infrastructure, operating systems, applications, storage, networks and cloud platforms.
  • Provide senior technical guidance and mentoring to Data Protection Engineers and Specialists, and contribute to major incidents affecting backup, recovery or data protection services.
  • Proactively review customer environments for risks, configuration issues, capacity concerns and improvement opportunities.
  • Advise on backup architecture, configuration, retention, recovery and best practices, and support recovery testing across complex application and infrastructure scenarios.
  • Manage multiple customer cases, maintaining clear, regular communication with customers and internal stakeholders.
  • Work with vendors, including Commvault Support, to resolve complex product issues.
  • Maintain accurate customer documentation, technical records, case histories and configuration information, and contribute to knowledge articles, procedures and best-practice guidance.

Commvault Expertise:

  • Act as a key Commvault resource, supporting environment design, implementation, troubleshooting and optimisation.
  • Troubleshoot CommServe, MediaAgents, storage, deduplication, indexing, backup and auxiliary copies, and client configurations.
  • Support protection and recovery of virtual machines, physical servers, databases, file systems and Microsoft 365.
  • Identify configuration, performance, capacity and operational improvements, and assist with migrations, upgrades, platform changes and customer onboarding.
  • Keep up to date with Commvault capabilities and help the team apply them to customer environments.

Pre-Sales and Solution Support:

  • Join customer discovery sessions and technical workshops with Pre-Sales, Solutions Architecture and Account Management teams.
  • Assess existing backup platforms, including Commvault and other enterprise products, to identify requirements, risks, opportunities, migration approaches and future-state solutions.
  • Gather and validate information for solution design and pricing, including workloads, protected capacity, retention, recovery, infrastructure and connectivity.
  • Contribute to solution designs, proposals and Statements of Work, including sizing and architecture for MediaAgents, storage, cloud resources and supporting infrastructure.
  • Translate RPO, RTO, retention, immutability and recovery requirements into technical solutions.
  • Support customer presentations and solution walkthroughs, validate designs for implementation and ongoing operation, and ensure a smooth handover from sale to delivery and support.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
