Help Shape the Future of Enterprise Networking

The integration of Juniper Networks into HPE has created one of the industry's most comprehensive networking portfolios, combining networking, security, AI-driven operations and cloud-managed solutions.

We're looking for experienced Senior Sales Engineers to work with some of the UK's largest Finance, Retail, Public Sector and Enterprise customers, helping organisations solve complex networking and security challenges whilst driving business growth.

This is a highly customer-facing role where you'll act as a trusted technical advisor, influencing technology strategies, leading technical evaluations and supporting major business opportunities.

What You'll Do

  • Partner with Account Managers on strategic customer opportunities.
  • Build trusted relationships with senior customer stakeholders.
  • Lead technical discovery workshops and solution design activities.
  • Deliver compelling product demonstrations and executive presentations.
  • Run proof-of-concept engagements and technical evaluations.
  • Support large and complex sales opportunities.
  • Influence customer networking and security strategies.
  • Mentor and support less experienced engineers where appropriate.
  • Act as a subject matter expert across key networking technologies.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
