• Articulate the value of identity‑driven security using NAC, contextual access control, and Zero Trust principles to security, network, and executive stakeholders.

• Support sales pursuits by contributing to RFPs, RFIs, architecture diagrams, and security questionnaires, ensuring technical accuracy and clarity.

• Collaborate closely with account teams, security specialists, partners, and professional services to drive successful customer outcomes.

• Present confidently to audiences ranging from hands‑on engineers to CISOs, security architects, and executive leadership.

• Provide structured feedback from the field to product management and engineering teams to influence roadmap and solution enhancements.

• Travel primarily across the Eastern U.S., with occasional broader travel to support major customer engagements, partner events, and industry forums.

Who You Are

• 10+ years of experience in technical presales, sales engineering, or solution architecture roles within networking and/or cybersecurity.

• Strong hands‑on experience with Firewall, SASE, SSE, Zero Trust, SD‑WAN, or cloud‑delivered security architectures.

• Solid understanding of network and security fundamentals, including firewalls, SRX, IPsec, SSL/TLS, IDS/IPS, and traffic inspection.

• Experience with identity‑based access controls, including NAC, SSO, SAML, OAuth, OIDC, and role‑ or context‑based policy enforcement.

• Strong networking knowledge: TCP/IP, DNS, TLS, HTTP/S, BGP, and OSPF.

• Familiarity with securing workloads and connectivity in public cloud environments (AWS, Azure, and/or Google Cloud).

• Comfortable delivering live demos, whiteboard sessions, and customer POCs in high‑visibility sales engagements.

• Clear communicator who can translate complex cybersecurity concepts into business‑focused value propositions.

• Self‑driven, collaborative, and effective in a fast‑paced, team‑oriented sales environment.

Preferred Qualifications
