Job Summary

The worldwide Learning & Enablement team is dedicated to building a world-class global sales organization. We are seeking a visionary learning architect to own the blueprint and execution that empowers our sellers to win in the age of AI-driven security and sales transformation.

As the Sales Enablement Architect for AI, you are the strategist for how we prepare our sellers to succeed with our AI-powered products, securing AI, and leveraging AI for their own productivity. You will be a skilled communicator who deeply understands the technical capabilities of our AI and security offerings and can translate them into compelling business and operational value. Your primary mission is to design the master plan for developing an elite sales team for this product area and equipping them with the knowledge, skills, and assets to win.

You will be at the center of a strategic ecosystem, partnering with sales leadership, technical experts, product management, and marketing to build and execute a cohesive and actionable enablement roadmap.

Key Responsibilities
  • Architect and own an end-to-end global enablement strategy for AI, focusing on two key areas: our AI-powered products to secure AI, and the enablement of our sellers to leverage AI for superior performance (e.g., hyper-personalized outreach, AI meeting co-pilots).
  • Actively leverage AI to create dynamic, data-driven learning paths that go beyond foundational knowledge, partnering with strategy teams to use signals from CRM and call intelligence to create adaptive learning journeys and reverse-engineer success patterns into targeted, skill-based learning interventions.
  • Design, build, and personally deliver enablement initiatives, including live presentations, product launch readiness, and role-based learning paths. This includes facilitating workshops, hosting training sessions, and developing on-demand content.
  • Establish and track key performance indicators for AI initiatives, rigorously measuring their impact on sales productivity, seller engagement, and business outcomes such as competitive win rates, sales cycle velocity, and new hire ramp time.
  • Create an AI enablement roadmap for initiatives directly supporting key business objectives like quota attainment and lead conversion.
  • Build and deploy practical GenAI solutions to address seller pain points and remove friction from daily workflows (e.g., a Sales Playbook Gem).
  • Serve as the "voice of sales" by building trusted partnerships with key stakeholders across Sales, Product, and GTM teams, ensuring all enablement solutions are relevant, timely, and aligned to driving key business outcomes.
  • Influence and guide the creation of high-impact sales assets by providing strategic content plans and subject matter expertise to content development teams. Ensure resources like playbooks, battle cards, and pitch decks simplify complexities and are continuously updated.


Qualifications
  • 8+ years of combined professional experience within enterprise software or cybersecurity environments, including a minimum of 4+ years of dedicated, hands-on Sales Enablement experience owning seller readiness, content delivery, and learning programs.
  • Strong cross functional leadership skills with the ability to influence Product, Marketing, Sales leaders without direct authority.
  • Proven experience creating and deploying custom GenAI prompts, agents, or internal tools to optimize business or learning workflows.
  • Experience leveraging AI tools and data insights (CRM, call intelligence, learning analytics, etc.) to create scalable, personalized enablement programs.
  • Demonstrated ability to build role based learning paths, launch readiness programs, and sales assets that drive adoption and field success.
  • Exceptional presentation and facilitation skills, with experience delivering training to global sales organizations and executive audiences.
  • Experience defining success metrics and using data to measure enablement effectiveness, including seller adoption, productivity, quota attainment, and time to productivity.
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience; advanced degree or relevant AI, enablement, or sales certifications are a plus.
