The posting

OUR STORY:

🇪🇺 Join Scaleway and shape the sovereign cloud of tomorrow !

Since 1999, we have been designing secure, sustainable infrastructures aimed at supporting the most ambitious companies.

Historically known for our dedicated servers (Dedibox), we made a strategic shift to cloud computing in 2015. Staying true to our principles of simplicity, flexibility, and technical excellence, we have become one of the leading players in Europe in the sector.

With the rise of artificial intelligence, we have strengthened our commitment, supported by the Iliad Group, which is investing €3 billion to develop a serious, sovereign AI alternative to American and Asian giants.

Every day, thanks to our fast-growing portfolio of cloud and AI products (bare metal, containerization, serverless, AI, etc.), Scaleway proudly serves thousands of customer across the private and public sector, from corporations like France Télévisions or Hachette Livre, to fast-growing startups like Photoroom and Biolevate, to institutions like the City of Copenhagen.

📍 Our offices are located in Paris, Lille, Toulouse, Rennes, Rouen, Bordeaux and Lyon.

WHY WE NEED YOU ?

As our HPC business continues to grow rapidly, we are strengthening our Presales team to support the increasing number and complexity of customer projects.

As a Presales Solutions Engineer – HPC, you will be the technical point of contact for our customers throughout their projects, from the initial technical discussions and Proofs of Concept to onboarding and ongoing support.

Your mission will be to understand our customers' simulation and computational needs, design the right HPC solutions, and help them successfully run their workloads on Scaleway, while working closely with our Sales and Solution teams.

This role combines hands-on technical work, customer interaction, and project ownership. You will work on a wide variety of use cases across industries such as automotive, energy, aerospace, and space.

YOUR FUTURE TEAM

You will join a growing Presales team currently composed of 2 Presales Engineers and their manager, working closely with several teams across Scaleway, including Solution Engineers, Web/Application Developers, Infrastructure Engineers, and DevOps Engineers.

Each Presales Engineer acts as the technical owner of their customers, taking responsibility for onboarding, technical support, and the successful delivery of their projects. You will work closely with the Sales and Solution teams to help develop opportunities, including upsell and cross-sell opportunities.

The team is currently expanding to support the strong growth of Scaleway's HPC business and to maintain a high level of technical expertise and customer support as computational workloads continue to increase.

This is a highly collaborative environment where you will have the opportunity to develop your expertise across HPC, Cloud, infrastructure, coding, data, and computational science.

YOUR DAILY ROUTINE

  • Work directly with customers to understand their technical and computational challenges and translate them into suitable HPC solutions.
  • Lead and support technical Proofs of Concept, from initial requirements gathering to deployment and validation.
  • Demonstrate Scaleway's HPC and Cloud solutions to technical and business stakeholders.
  • Design and deploy computing environments adapted to customers' workloads and simulation requirements.
  • Act as the technical owner for your customers during onboarding and provide technical support throughout their projects.
  • Provide ongoing technical support to customers, helping their technical teams use and troubleshoot the solution.
  • Work hands-on with technologies such as Linux/Bash, Docker, MPI, Python SDKs, S3, Slurm, and Lustre.
  • Help customers migrate and run their multiphysics and simulation workloads on Scaleway's infrastructure.
  • Collaborate with Sales teams to support opportunities and contribute to the development of customer projects, including upsell and cross-sell initiatives.
  • Coordinate with Solution Engineers, Infrastructure, DevOps, and Application teams to ensure customer projects move forward smoothly.
  • Participate in specialized trade shows and events.
  • Contribute, when relevant, to external technical documentation and blog posts.

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.
