Job Description
Principal Customer Engineer, Openstack, Kubernetes
Mirantis
• Own the technical relationship with a small number of strategic customers (typically 5–8), acting as their primary technical point of contact across MOSK, MKE, k0rdent, and the broader Mirantis portfolio. • Build a deep working knowledge of each customer’s architecture, use cases, internal platform strategy, and adjacent toolchain; maintain a living technical account plan for each. • Drive deeper product integration by identifying opportunities to expand Mirantis usage into new workloads, clusters, environments, and teams — and by working with the customer to remove the technical blockers that stand in the way. • Lead technical alignment between the customer’s engineering and platform teams and Mirantis Product and Engineering; translate customer requirements into credible product input and translate roadmap into customer-relevant guidance. • Run regular technical cadences — architecture reviews, upgrade planning sessions, roadmap briefings, and health checks — both remotely and on-site at customer locations. • Partner closely with Support on high-impact cases for your accounts, alerting duties and hush severity issues, providing account context, accelerating resolution, and closing the loop on recurring issues through product and operational improvements. • Advocate internally for the customer across Product, Engineering, Support, and Customer Success; ensure their voice is represented in roadmap, release, and prioritisation discussions. • Collaborate with the account team — Technical Account Manager, Account Executive, and Solutions Engineer — without duplicating their remit; the boundary is clear: they own commercial, delivery, and pre-sales; you own sustained technical depth post-sale. • Contribute back to internal enablement, reference architectures, and best-practice guidance so patterns learned in one account benefit the wider customer base.
Job Requirements
