Job SummaryThe TeamChannel9 was built to turn the heads of our Core sellers, make them fall in love with Cortex and help companies transform their security operations. Through short, engaging, relevant, funny & "edutaining" content, we grew to 7.7K internal followers (one-third of the company), including 60% of our sellers, 3.5K resellers and a large public/customer audience that we don't even fully measure. Recently, we've been tapping into physical experiences like the Cortex Escape Room @ HQ to make our customer engagement more exciting, more experiential. And we're just getting started.
At Channel9, work feels like playing in a band, and our audience sees this come across our content. Our philosophy is simple: take complicated things and turn them into bite-sized, highly engaging content that people actually want to watch. Clear up misunderstandings. Make the light bulb turn on. Create excitement. Help someone become better at their job. Sellers' self-reported Channel9 revenue influence ended up over $19M in FY26, and this is a conservative number - so we're onto something.
