What You Will Do

• Own outcomes for high stakes customer engagements
• Lead technical discovery to map a customer’s data and identity reality, including key data stores, flows, access patterns, and risk hotspots
• Drive successful pilots and proofs of concept from blank slate to measurable value, including success criteria, implementation plans, and executive ready outcomes
• Deploy, integrate, and make it real
• Design and implement secure deployments across cloud, on-prem, and hybrid environments, including AWS, Azure, GCP, and on premise patterns
• Integrate Symmetry into customer ecosystems such as identity systems, data platforms, and security tooling, leaning on existing integrations and building new ones when needed. Take advantage of AI tooling (such as Claude code) to expedite integrations
• Translate data security posture and identity risk signals into prioritized remediation plans, including least privilege, dormant access reduction, and anomalous activity response
• Be the technical closer without being salesy
• Partner with Sales to run technical workshops, threat and risk reviews, and architecture sessions that build trust and momentum
• Handle the hard questions about how this works in real environments and about long term outcome arcs
• What success looks like in the first 6 to 12 months
• Multiple enterprise pilots convert to production expansions because customers can clearly prove improved visibility, reduced risk, and operational fit
• The team moves faster because your templates, playbooks, and mentorship raise overall execution quality

Qualifications

• 1 - 5 or more years of experience in roles such as Forward Deployed Engineer, Solutions Architect, hands on Sales Engineer, Customer Engineer, Security Engineer, or similar, with deep technical delivery rather than presentation only responsibilities
• Ability to lead technical engagements with enterprise customers across security, data, platform, and executive stakeholders
• Fluency across AWS, Azure, and GCP, including IAM concepts, networking fundamentals, logging and audit patterns, and deploying production grade services
• Comfort working with modern data ecosystems and the realities of data sprawl across warehouses, lakes, object stores, and SaaS platforms
• Strong debugging and systems thinking skills, with the ability to isolate root cause from ambiguous symptoms and communicate clearly while unblocking teams
• Ability to write code or scripts when needed, for example in Python, Go, or TypeScript, and to reason deeply about APIs and integrations
• Ability to set direction in ambiguous situations, make tradeoffs, and keep customers and internal teams aligned
• Strong relationship skills and executive presence with calm, clear communication and high trust under pressure

Nice to Haves

• Experience in data security, DSPM, cloud security posture management, identity governance, or Zero Trust initiatives, especially those involving data object level controls
• Familiarity with security operations workflows such as alerting, investigations, audit evidence generation, and incident response
• A track record of building repeatable deployment playbooks or scalable post sales motions
