Position Summary

Netwrix’s CloudLAB is the company’s standardized, CloudShare/Azure-hosted virtual environment used across the organization and with external stakeholders to power product demos and proofs of value (POVs), enablement and training, quality/testing workflows, and major events like webinars and trade shows.

The Demo Platform Engineering Lead is the single-threaded owner accountable for the reliability, security, and evolution of this environment; running the release train, coordinating a cross-functional tiger team, and engineering repeatable “click-to-launch” demo and POV experiences.

Essential Duties & Responsibilities

Platform Ownership & Strategy

• Own the CloudLAB platform vision, reference architecture, standards, and lifecycle (build, maintain, retire).
• Define and manage the CloudLAB roadmap and backlog, aligning priorities across Sales/SE, Enablement, Product, Engineering, Support, ProServ, Marketing, and Channel stakeholders.
• Maintain a scalable model that supports a broad range of use cases, including demos, POVs, internal training, product quality/testing, customer zero, and external analyst/partner evaluations.

Release Management & Operational Excellence

• Run a predictable operating rhythm with weekly build/strategy sessions and a monthly release cycle (scope, build, validate, publish, communicate).
• Maintain release documentation: release notes, known issues, rollback plans, version compatibility, and standard operating procedures.
• Establish environment health checks, incident response patterns, and continuous improvement for uptime and performance.

Engineering & Automation

• Experience consuming and integrating RESTful APIs using PowerShell/Python, including OAuth2/service principals, pagination, rate limits, JSON payloads, and error handling to automate provisioning and lifecycle workflows.
• Investigate and integrate open-source tools and supporting services that improve demo realism, speed, and reliability (e.g., automation helpers, telemetry/health signals, reset mechanisms).
• Manage supporting systems and integrations needed for realistic environments (e.g., identity, Windows services, data sources, and required platform dependencies).

Demo/POV Productization (“Value Engineering”)

• Package Netwrix solutions into repeatable CloudLAB blueprints, curated demo paths, and POV workflows that are easy for the field to execute.
• Maintain reliable sample data, “reset to green” capabilities, and consistent UX so the environment is always customer-ready (and not a science project).
• Partner with Enablement to align labs to training programs, internal readiness, and partner accreditation needs.

Stakeholder Leadership & Cross-Functional Coordination

• Lead the tiger team of cross-functional contributors; run calls, document decisions, track dependencies, and drive to closure.
• Serve as the escalation point for CloudLAB issues impacting demos/POVs, training, events, or external evaluations.
• Collaborate with Legal/3rd-party assessment workflows where environments are required for reviews and evaluations.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• 5–8+ years in a blend of solutions engineering, demo engineering, lab/platform engineering, enablement engineering, or technical program leadership.
• Strong Windows, Linux + identity fundamentals (Active Directory/Entra ID concepts, DNS, certificates, authentication flows).
• Hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure and Microsoft Entra ID, including leading or materially contributing to a migration to Azure/Entra, and operating the resulting cloud and identity services (tenant configuration, access controls, integrations, and secure connectivity) for a production-like demo/POV environment.
• Practical cloud/platform operations mindset (capacity, cost controls, repeatability, incident handling).
• Proven ability to lead cross-functionally: backlog management, release planning, meeting facilitation, stakeholder alignment, and crisp written communication.
• Docker/container fundamentals and maintaining supporting services.

---

Preferred Skills & Qualifications

• CloudShare (or similar demo/virtual lab platform) experience.
• Hands-on PowerShell required; Python a strong plus.
• Experience with workflow orchestration platforms (e.g., n8n, Tines) to build API-driven automations and operational runbooks (provisioning, configuration, notifications, and lifecycle management), with strong attention to reliability and security.
• Experience designing demo blueprints, sample datasets, and POV playbooks for enterprise security products.
• Familiarity with security buyer workflows (identity security, audit/compliance reporting, data security) and demo narrative construction.
• Experience utilizing CI/CD and release engineering using tools such as GitHub Actions, GitLab, or Jenkins to automate build/test/release of lab artifacts and using semantic-release (or similar) to standardize versioning and generate changelogs.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

• Release predictability: % releases delivered on time; rollback success rate.
• Platform reliability: environment launch success rate; MTTR for demo-impacting incidents.
• Adoption: usage across SE/Enablement/Marketing/Partners; reduced cycle time to POV start.
• Self-service maturity: reduced manual requests via documentation + automation.
• Stakeholder satisfaction: quarterly feedback score and top pain themes are burned down.
