Senior Solution Consultant – Cyber Resilience (Data Protection)
About The Position
We are looking for a Senior Solution Consultant with deep, hands-on expertise in enterprise data protection to join WWT's Cyber Resilience Practice. In this role, you will serve as a trusted advisor to our clients, helping them evaluate, design, and implement best-in-class backup, recovery, and cyber resilience solutions across complex hybrid and multi-cloud environments. You will work alongside WWT account teams, architects, and engineering resources to translate client challenges into compelling, technically credible solutions - spanning pre-sales engagements, proof-of-concept work, and post-sales advisory. This is a high-visibility, client-facing role that requires equal parts technical depth and business acumen. The ideal candidate will have strong hands-on experience across data protection platforms, a consulting or professional-services background, and the ability to translate complex security requirements into scalable, enterprise-grade solutions. A track record of successful implementations for large organizations is essential.
Requirements
- 8+ years of experience in IT infrastructure, with at least 5 years focused on enterprise data protection, backup and recovery, or cyber resilience.
- Proven pre-sales or solution consulting experience in a partner, VAR, or vendor environment.
- Demonstrated ability to engage C-level and Director-level stakeholders with both technical and business-oriented conversations.
- Strong understanding of enterprise storage, virtualization, networking, and cloud infrastructure as they relate to data protection architectures.
- Experience sizing, scoping, and designing data protection solutions for large-scale environments (petabyte-scale data, thousands of workloads).
- Deep, hands-on expertise with at least one of the following platforms: Dell Technologies (PowerProtect Data Manager (PPDM), PowerProtect Data Domain (DD Boost), CyberVault, CyberSense, and/or Avamar), Commvault (Command Center, HyperScale X, and/or Cloud/SaaS protection), Cohesity (DataProtect, DataHawk, FortKnox, and/or SmartFiles), or Rubrik (Security Cloud, Cyber Recovery, and/or Sensitive Data Monitoring).

- Familiarity with NIST CSF, CIS Controls, or regulatory frameworks (HIPAA, PCI-DSS, FedRAMP) as they relate to backup and recovery requirements
- Scripting or automation skills (Python, PowerShell, REST API) for backup environment management
Responsibilities
- Lead technical pre-sales engagements for data protection and cyber resilience opportunities across WWT's enterprise and mid-market client base.
- Conduct discovery sessions to understand client backup environments, recovery objectives, data growth trends, and compliance requirements.
- Develop and present solution architectures covering backup, replication, immutable storage, air-gapped vaults, and ransomware recovery — tailored to each client's infrastructure.
- Design and deliver proof-of-concept (PoC) and proof-of-value (PoV) engagements across platforms including Dell, Commvault, Cohesity, and Rubrik.
- Author bill-of-materials (BOM), statements of work (SOW), and technical proposal content in collaboration with account executives and solution architects.
- Stay current on data protection market trends, competitive landscape, and emerging threats (ransomware, insider risk, supply chain attacks) to provide relevant, forward-looking guidance.
- Support WWT marketing and go-to-market activities including webinars, thought leadership content, and partner-sponsored events.
- Collaborate with WWT's Advanced Technology Center (ATC) labs team to develop demo environments, reference architectures, and validated designs.
