Job Summary

Your Career

As a Consulting Engineer at Palo Alto Networks, you join the global SME team for secure mobile and network infrastructure. The role combines hands-on skills with customer-facing technical advisory. You partner with EMEA sales and channel teams to lead business-relevant security conversations with Service Providers and enterprises, covering mobile core, edge, and critical infrastructure environments. You also help shape the next generation of AI security on both fronts: runtime protection for the AI applications customers deploy, and defense of the network against AI-driven threats and attack vectors. Hands-on, you drive PoCs, lab evaluations, and reference architectures that validate these solutions in customer environments. The advisory side connects that work to the outcomes customers are buying: reduced risk, regulatory alignment, new service monetization, and platform consolidation savings.
