  • Partner with Sales Engineering, Account Executives, Product, Engineering, Customer Success, and Professional Services on pursuits, escalations, roadmap feedback, and customer delivery 
  • Share field learnings with Product and Engineering to improve the platform and strengthen how the FDE organization operates 

What You’ll Bring

  • 8–12+ years of experience in technical, customer-facing delivery roles, such as forward-deployed engineering, solutions engineering, platform engineering, or technical consulting 
  • Experience managing engineers or technical delivery teams, including hiring, coaching, performance management, and career development 
  • Strong program and delivery management skills, with experience managing multiple customer accounts, timelines, risks, and priorities at once 
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to set expectations and build trust with executives, business leaders, engineers, and internal teams 
  • Technical depth in deployment and infrastructure, including Kubernetes, containers, Linux, cloud platforms, and hybrid environments 
  • Ability to review technical architecture, understand systems and code, challenge assumptions, and help teams make strong technical decisions 
  • Experience leading customer escalations with clarity, calm, and accountability 
  • Experience using AI-native tools, automation, and modern engineering workflows to improve delivery and team effectiveness 
  • Working knowledge of data security, privacy, governance, or regulatory topics across enterprise environments 
  • A high-ownership mindset, with the ability to build trust, create structure, and drive outcomes across people, programs, and customers 

Bonus Skills

  • Experience with DSPM, CSPM, DLP, data governance, privacy platforms, or related security domains
