Client Engineer

Sentinel Blue is hiring a Client Engineer for our Operations team. This role is a senior, client-facing engineer who serves as a trusted technology advisor across Sentinel Blue’s client portfolio. This role sits within the Operations team and is built for an engineer who can operate at both the strategic and technical level. The perfect candidate is someone who can assess a client’s environment, understand their goals and constraints, and provide clear, actionable direction. This is not a pure advisory role. You will be reviewing and modifying configurations, evaluating vendor proposals, identifying security and compliance implications, and producing documentation clients can act on. You will also collaborate internally to connect client needs to the right delivery teams or external partners. This is a full-time position that is fully remote. This position may require access to technology, technical data, or information that is subject to U.S. export control laws and regulations.

The company reserves the right not to apply for an export license and to decline to proceed with any applicant on that basis. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to citizenship status, national origin, or immigration status.

That same week, you might be standing up the server infrastructure to host it, working through a configuration issue blocking a data connection, or troubleshooting why an integration with their identity provider isn't behaving as expected. Later, you're on a call reviewing a vendor proposal with a client's leadership team, helping them understand what questions to ask and what commitments to require. By end of day, you're translating that conversation into a written brief the client can take into their next board discussion. Responsibilities: Serve as the senior technology point of contact for assigned clients, owning the relationship at the strategic level. Lead discovery conversations to understand client business goals, existing technology investments, and emerging needs. Translate complex technical topics into clear guidance appropriate for non-technical stakeholders and executive audiences. Represent Sentinel Blue on client calls with credibility, clarity, and a…
