Description
SAIC is currently seeking a Cloud DevOps Engineer Senior. This position will serve as a primary technical engineer leading the enterprise-wide migration of Atlassian Jira and Confluence instances from a managed Data Center environment to Cloud SaaS/Atlassian Government Cloud (AGC). Additionally, this role provides operational and maintenance support for the agency’s enterprise DevSecOps shared services pipeline and infrastructure hosted within Amazon Web Services (AWS).
The ideal candidate possesses deep hands-on expertise with Atlassian Cloud Migration Assistant tools, Atlassian Government Cloud (AGC) FedRAMP compliance, pipeline automation, CI/CD toolchain administration, and AWS Cloud infrastructure management.
Overview of Responsibilities:
1. Atlassian Data Center to Cloud Migration (Primary Focus)
- Pre-Migration Assessment: Execute the Cloud-to-AGC pre-migration checklist (C2AGC), evaluating site prerequisites, organization/site readiness, administrative access, and AGC-specific architectural constraints.
- Inventory & Asset Mapping: Perform full audit and mapping of
- Jira projects (50 + projects / ~25 K issues) and

- Runbook & Cutover Execution: Author detailed step-by-step production cutover runbooks, rollback/contingency procedures, communication templates, and on-call rosters. Execute live migration scripts during scheduled maintenance windows to ensure zero-data-loss go-live.
- Post-Migration Hypercare: Provide immediate operational support post-cutover, remediate broken links/integrations, validate permissions, and finalize handover to standard operations.
2. Enterprise DevSecOps Pipeline & Tool Administration
- Toolchain O&M: Administer, patch, and maintain the enterprise shared DevSecOps toolset hosted on Linux servers, including GitHub Enterprise Appliance, CloudBees Jenkins (Ops Center, controllers, agents), SonarQube, JFrog Artifactory, and Invicti.

Tips for Your Cloud Sales Engineer Job Search
Quantify your technical wins on paper
Cloud sales engineers live at the intersection of revenue and technical depth, so your resume should show both. List deals you supported, the cloud platforms involved, and measurable outcomes like deployment timelines or deal sizes closed with your involvement.
Earn a cloud vendor certification first
AWS Solutions Architect, Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect, and Azure Solutions Expert certifications signal hands-on platform depth to hiring managers. Many job postings list at least one of these as preferred, and holding one moves your application past initial filters quickly.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists cloud sales engineer openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target openings by your primary cloud platform
Search for roles that name your strongest platform explicitly. A hybrid AWS and Azure background is valuable, but leading with your deepest expertise in your cover note helps you stand out when hiring teams are evaluating pre-sales fit for a specific stack.
Prepare a technical discovery demo walkthrough
Most cloud sales engineer interviews include a live or recorded technical demo stage. Prepare a tightly scoped scenario, ideally based on a public case study in your target vertical, that shows how you run discovery, handle objections, and tailor a solution architecture to a prospect's requirements.
Negotiate your on-target earnings structure carefully
Cloud sales engineer compensation often splits between base and variable pay tied to quota attainment or deal influence. Ask explicitly how influenced revenue is tracked, what the quota-setting process looks like, and whether pre-sales engineers receive accelerators above quota, before you accept an offer.
Cloud Sales Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most cloud sales engineers?
The companies hiring the most cloud sales engineers right now include Google, Meta, and Peraton, with the largest share of openings in Virginia, California, and Texas, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand is concentrated in enterprise software, managed services, and cloud-native infrastructure providers.
How many cloud sales engineer jobs are remote?
About 77% of cloud sales engineer openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, making it one of the more distributed roles in technical sales. Pre-sales and technical account management sub-roles tend to have the highest remote availability, while field sales engineering roles tied to a named territory are more likely to require regional presence.
How do you become a cloud sales engineer?
Start by building hands-on cloud platform experience through a technical role such as systems administrator, cloud engineer, or solutions architect. Earn at least one vendor certification to validate that depth. From there, move into a customer-facing technical role, develop comfort running live demos and discovery conversations, and apply to pre-sales or solutions engineering positions that match your platform background.
Can you get hired as a cloud sales engineer without experience?
Breaking in without direct pre-sales experience is possible if you can demonstrate strong cloud platform knowledge and customer communication skills. Build a portfolio of technical demos or architecture walkthroughs using public sandbox environments. Associate-level roles at managed service providers or smaller SaaS vendors are more open to candidates transitioning from cloud operations or support engineering backgrounds.
What does the cloud sales engineer interview process look like?
Most cloud sales engineer processes run three to five stages. A recruiter screen is followed by a hiring manager call focused on your sales motion experience and platform background. From there, expect a technical discovery exercise where you run a simulated customer call, and a live or recorded solution demo. Final rounds typically include a panel with sales leadership and a technical review of your architecture approach.
Where can I find and apply to cloud sales engineer jobs?
You can find and apply to cloud sales engineer jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers across the United States. Search the available roles, find the ones that match your platform expertise and target industry, and apply directly to each listing from the page.
