The posting

At F5, we strive to bring a better digital world to life. Our teams empower organizations across the globe to create, secure, and run applications that enhance how we experience our evolving digital world. We are passionate about cybersecurity, from protecting consumers from fraud to enabling companies to focus on innovation.

Everything we do centers around people. That means we obsess over how to make the lives of our customers, and their customers, better. And it means we prioritize a diverse F5 community where each individual can thrive.

**Ideal candidate would be located in NY, NJ, or PA**

About the Role:

As a Senior Solutions Engineer (SE) at F5, you will serve as a trusted technical architect and strategic advisor to Fortune 500 enterprises and fast-growing digital innovators. Working in close partnership with the Sales Director, the East NA Named Accounts team, and our Enterprise/Commercial Account teams, your high-level objective is to design, champion, and sell modern F5 application delivery and security solutions across multi-cloud, hybrid, and edge environments to achieve allocated sales targets.

Today, F5 secures and delivers over half of the world's application traffic. In this role, you will help shape the next chapter of global application infrastructure—protecting mission-critical workloads, orchestrating cloud-native API architectures, and enabling enterprise AI initiatives with secure, high-performance foundations.

We know that elite solutions engineers come from diverse backgrounds and non-linear paths. If you are excited about this role but your experience doesn't align perfectly with every bullet point, we still highly encourage you to apply. If you bring strong technical curiosity, a consultative approach, and the drive to solve complex problems, we would love to connect with you.

What You’ll Do:

  • Strategic Technical Partnership: Partner with CISOs, Cloud Architects, and Platform Engineering leaders, translating complex business goals into resilient, scalable architectural blueprints.
  • Guide Customer Modernization Journeys: Empower our established enterprise customer base to evolve their trusted BIG-IP foundations into agile, modern hybrid architectures—seamlessly bridging established data-center infrastructure with distributed cloud and containerized environments.
  • Architect Modern App Delivery & Security: Lead technical discovery, design validations, and solution demonstrations across Web Application & API Protection (WAAP), proactive Bot Defense, DDoS mitigation, and Zero Trust access.
  • Enable Cloud-Native & AI Transformation: Help organizations modernize traffic management, Kubernetes ingress patterns, and emerging AI inference pipelines and AI Gateway architectures.
  • Bridge the Gap between Security and Developer Velocity: Demonstrate automated, declarative workflows using Infrastructure-as-Code (such as Terraform or Ansible) and CI/CD pipelines, bringing NetOps, SecOps, and DevOps together.
  • Drive Technical Alignment: Lead the technical evaluation process with clarity and empathy, identifying customer priorities and validating F5’s differentiated value in competitive environments.
  • Collaborate & Influence: Share insights from customer engagements with F5’s Product and Engineering teams to help shape our distributed cloud and security roadmaps.

What You Bring:

Experience:

  • Pre-Sales / Technical Consulting Experience: 5+ years of experience in pre-sales engineering, systems engineering, technical consulting, or an equivalent customer-aligned systems/solutions architecture role.
  • Enterprise Track Record: Proven experience supporting and building trust with large enterprise accounts, particularly within high-compliance or highly regulated industries (such as financial services).
  • Architectural Storytelling: Ability to connect deep technical capabilities to real-world business outcomes, building authentic trust with hands-on engineers and executive leaders alike.
  • Cloud Experience: Prior experience with modern edge cloud/WAAP platforms, API gateway technologies, or hyperscaler cloud networking practices.
  • AI Curiosity: Familiarity with securing or optimizing emerging AI workloads, LLM inference endpoints, or modern data services.

Technical Strengths:

  • Application Security & API Governance: Understanding of Web Application Security, API protection (such as OWASP API Top 10), automated threat mitigation, and Zero Trust principles.
  • Cloud-Native & Modern Ingress: Experience with container environments (Kubernetes (K8), OpenShift), modern ingress controllers, API gateways, or service mesh technologies (e.g., NGINX).
  • Multi-Cloud & Hybrid Networking: Working knowledge of modern cloud environments (such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud) and hybrid connectivity patterns.
  • Automation & Programmability: Experience with scripting (Python, Go, or Bash) or declarative configuration tools (Terraform, Ansible, GitOps practices).
  • Enterprise ADC & Security Foundations: Strong knowledge of classic enterprise ADCs, traffic management, and security infrastructure, with a passion for guiding customers to modern hybrid environments.
  • Core Internet Protocols & Systems: In-depth understanding of TCP/IP, HTTP/HTTPS, HTTP/2, SSL/TLS, DNS, and Unix/Linux-based operating systems.

Education & Continuous Learning:

  • BS/BA degree in a relevant technical field (Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Management Information Systems) or equivalent practical industry experience.
  • Relevant industry certifications preferred, but not required (such as Kubernetes CKA, Cloud Solutions Architect certifications, or CISSP) or equivalent self-directed learning.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
