About The Position

Parallels is looking for a Senior Sales Engineer to serve as a key technical expert and contributor throughout the pre-sales process. In this role, you will work with our industry-leading solutions, including Parallels Remote Application Server (RAS), Parallels Secure Workspace, Parallels DaaS, and Parallels Browser Isolation, playing a critical part in acquiring new customers and partners.

It’s an exciting time at Parallels, with strong leadership, a refreshed brand, and a whole new approach to changing the way the world works. We’re at the forefront of a movement, and we want you to ride this wave with us. 2. We want you to be you. Too often, companies tell you about their culture and then expect you to fit it. Our culture is built from the people who work here. We want you to feel safe to be who you are, take risks, and show us what you’ve got. 3. It’s your world. We know you have a life. We want to be part of it, but not all of it. At Parallels, we’re serious about empowering people to work when, how, and where they want. Couch? Sweatpants? Cool with us. We believe that happy employees mean happy customers. That’s why we hire amazing people and get out of their way.
