• Communicate technical concepts clearly and confidently with both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Use strong presentation, storytelling, and discovery skills to make complex information relevant and actionable.
• Prioritize effectively, manage competing responsibilities, and maintain quality in a fast-paced, high-volume sales environment.
• Demonstrate curiosity, sound problem-solving skills, and the ability to work independently and collaboratively in a remote-first team.
Preferred
• Bring experience with security and identity concepts, such as credential management, privileged access, secrets management, Single Sign-On (SSO), System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM), or OAuth/OpenID Connect (OAuth/OIDC).

• Lead technical discovery with stakeholders including IT administrators, security leaders, developers, DevOps teams, and Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs).
• Demonstrate and position Endpoint Privilege Management (EPM), Software as a Service (SaaS) Manager, and Device Trust as an integrated solution that helps reduce risk across users, applications, and devices.
• Run POV engagements that validate customer success criteria, including use cases involving developer environments, cloud-native workloads, automation, and artificial intelligence (AI) workflows.
• Help customers evaluate solutions in competitive situations involving Privileged Access Management (PAM) vendors, secrets management tools, and SaaS security platforms.
• Respond to security questionnaires, compliance requests, Requests for Proposal/Requests for Information (RFPs/RFIs), and other technical documentation needs.
