Responsibilities Identify, engage and build relationships with key decision-makers and influencers in the CAE simulation, bioscience, Oil and gas and other relevant HPC markets. Understand each potential client’s business goals, pain points and compute workloads and align our HPCaaS and hybrid HPC offerings to deliver measurable impact. Present and advocate the value of HPCaaS solutions—covering hardware architecture, software stack, service delivery, support and commercial models—to both technical and business stakeholders. Manage the entire sales process end-to-end: from lead generation and qualification, through solution co-creation, proposal submission, negotiation, and deal closure. Work closely with hardware partners to design architectures tailored to customer use cases and business objectives. Stay up to date with trends in the HPC hardware and software markets (GPUs, CPUs, accelerators, interconnects, cloud HPC, simulation software), emerging competitor offerings and evolving client needs. Develop and maintain a robust pipeline, forecast accurately, and meet/exceed revenue, margin and customer growth targets. Act as a trusted advisor to clients and vendors—helping shape strategic relationships, referenceable use-cases and long-term engagements. Experience and Qualifications Strong experience in B2B technology sales, ideally selling complex hardware-software-services bundles (e.g., HPC, simulation, CAE, enterprise infrastructure). Demonstrable good understanding of the CAE simulation market (such as mechanical/FEA, CFD, multiphysics simulation) and how HPC is leveraged in that context. Good understanding of other HPC-using sectors is a plus — such as Pharma, Oil & Gas, Rendering/VFX, Weather Research & Forecasting (WRF) or AI/ML workloads. Solid understanding of HPC hardware architecture, market and solutions available (CPUs, GPUs, accelerators, HPC clusters, cloud HPC, interconnects, storage, HPCaaS models). Excellent communication, negotiation and presentation skills; ability to explain technical concepts in business value terms and engage with stakeholders at all levels. A self-motivated, results-driven mindset; you thrive in a high-growth, consultative sales environment and are comfortable working autonomously and as part of a collaborative team. Comfortable with hybrid working travel as required to customer sites, partner/vendor and conferences around Europe. About Us: We are the tech company with people at heart.
