You’ll help customers realize the value of automation by aligning use cases with their security and operational goals.

The role requires navigating both technical and business conversations. Explaining automation, modeling logic-based workflows, and connecting platform capabilities to real-world outcomes are essential.

• Familiarity with major platform types, including SIEM, SOAR, EDR, IAM, cloud services, ticketing, and compliance/GRC systems.
• Ability to work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and manage multiple customer engagements.

• Experience in early-stage startups or dynamic sales environments.
• Cloud platform knowledge, including AWS, Azure, or GCP.
• Background in security automation, SOAR, or no-code/low-code platforms.

Responsibilities
