About the Role

We are seeking an experienced Couchbase Consultant to join our team in a dual capacity spanning consulting delivery and pre-sales support. This role is ideal for a NoSQL/database professional who is equally comfortable designing and implementing Couchbase solutions (Capella and self-managed Couchbase Server) for clients as they are presenting and demonstrating those solutions to prospective customers.

While core Couchbase database expertise (data modeling, architecture, and administration) is the primary focus, we're looking for someone genuinely curious about the broader Couchbase platform, you should be willing and eager to build capability across Search, Mobile, Analytics, and the Couchbase AI Data Plane over time.

Key Responsibilities

- Lead and support the design, data modeling, configuration, and implementation of Couchbase solutions (Capella DBaaS and self-managed Couchbase Server) for clients, following best practice and industry standards.
- Participate in pre-sales activities, including solution scoping, effort estimation, and responding to RFPs/RFIs.
- Deliver compelling customer demonstrations and solution presentations that clearly articulate the value of proposed Couchbase solutions.
- Partner with sales and account teams to understand customer requirements and translate them into tailored Couchbase architectures.
- Design and tune indexes, queries (SQL++/N1QL), and cluster topologies for performance, scalability, and high availability.
- Advise on cluster administration, security, backup/DR, and multi-dimensional scaling for production Couchbase environments.
- Build trusted relationships with clients and stakeholders throughout both the pre-sales and delivery lifecycle.
- Stay current with Couchbase product releases and proactively expand knowledge into Search, Mobile, Analytics, and AI Data Plane capabilities.
- Contribute to internal capability building,



reusable assets, and demo environments to support future pre-sales engagements.
- Balance time effectively between active client delivery/consulting engagements and pre-sales support as business needs require.

Required Experience & Skills

- 3–5 years of local (Australia-based) hands-on Couchbase or NoSQL database experience, mandatory.
- Minimum 1 year of pre-sales experience, including solutioning, demonstrations, and presenting to prospective customers, mandatory.
- Proven experience in customer demonstrations, solution presentations, and pre-sales engagements, must-have.
- Strong working knowledge of Couchbase data modeling, SQL++/N1QL, indexing, and cluster architecture; genuine willingness and interest to learn Search, Mobile, Analytics, and AI Data Plane capabilities.
- Must currently be based in Australia.
- Native English speaker, or equivalent near-native fluency, with excellent verbal and written communication skills suitable for client-facing presentations.
- Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to communicate confidently with both technical and non-technical audiences.
- Comfortable operating in a dual role, balancing structured project delivery with the more fluid, fast-paced nature of pre-sales.

Desirable (Nice to Have)

- Couchbase certifications, particularly at Architect or Administrator level (e.g., CB131 Associate Architect, CD212 Professional Architect, CB100 Capella Associate Administrator, CS300 Skilled Administrator).
- Experience across additional Couchbase capabilities (e.g., Full-Text/Vector Search, Mobile/Edge Sync, Analytics, AI Data Plane).
- Developer-level certification or hands-on experience in one or more SDKs (Java, .NET, Node.js, Python, Android).
- Prior experience within a Couchbase consulting partner or systems integrator environment.
- Familiarity with Australian industry sectors relevant to your target clients.
