The Opportunity
Nutanix is looking for an experienced and forward-thinking Director, Systems Engineering - EMEA South to lead and evolve our Systems Engineering organisation across France, Italy, Iberia (Spain and Portugal), Israel, and Northwest Africa.
This is a senior leadership role at the intersection of technology, business strategy, customer transformation and people leadership. You will lead a multi-country organisation of Systems Engineering leaders and teams, partnering closely with regional Sales leadership, customers, partners, Product and Engineering to help shape how Nutanix brings its technology and value proposition to market.
Nutanix has deep roots in enterprise infrastructure and hybrid multicloud. As the technology landscape continues to evolve, our Systems Engineering organisation must evolve with it. Cloud-native architectures, Kubernetes, AI and agentic AI, data sovereignty, application modernisation and increasingly distributed technology environments are changing the conversations we have with customers.
We are looking for a leader who understands where Nutanix comes from, but is equally passionate about where the market is going next. You will be responsible not simply for running the existing organisation, but for developing its capabilities, leadership and technical relevance for the future.
Your Role

What You'll Bring
You are an experienced technology and people leader who combines technical credibility, commercial understanding and organisational leadership. You understand enterprise infrastructure deeply enough to appreciate the foundations of Nutanix, but your perspective extends well beyond traditional infrastructure. You understand how cloud-native architectures, AI, sovereignty, application modernisation and new operating models are reshaping enterprise technology decisions.

Leadership Profile
Transform the organisation: Anticipate where customers, technology and Nutanix are heading and ensure the regional SE organisation develops ahead of those changes.
Build the next generation of leaders: Create a strong leadership bench, develop talent, retain critical capability and give people opportunities to grow.
Connect technology to the business: Ensure Systems Engineering remains technically credible while becoming increasingly strategic, customer-outcome focused and commercially connected.
Work Arrangement
Remote: This position is primarily remote. There is no specific in-office requirement; however, there may be circumstances where you may be required to come into a local office for a specific purpose, and/or to travel to other locations based on business needs.
Pay Transparency
The OTE range for this position at commencement of employment is expected to be between EUR €155,000 and EUR €233,000 per year. Please note that OTE offered may vary depending on relevant objective factors, including market location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
