Security Solutions Advisor (Technical Sales)

Terra Quantum

1d • Remote

About The Position

We are hiring a Security Solutions Advisor to support technical pre-sales and solution design of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and cryptographic agility solutions. This role focuses on advising customers on architecture and migration strategies, while working internally to align our broader PQC go-to-market strategy. This position plays a pivotal role in connecting our customers’ security transformation goals with our quantum safety platform. You will guide customers through pre-sales technical engagements, beginning with cryptographic assessments, discovery, and solution design, extending to migration road-mapping and architecture recommendations in support of pre-sales deployments. Your overall objective will be to help customers envision and architect quantum-safe compliance, resilience, and regulatory readiness with the aid of our platform. You will operate independently in day-to-day engagements with customers while collaborating closely with account executives, business development, and product engineering to shape proposals that align with customer needs. The role is remote with some travel for customer meetings and project delivery.
