Our Mission

At Palo Alto Networks® everything starts and ends with our mission:

Being the cybersecurity partner of choice, protecting our digital way of life.
Our vision is a world where each day is safer and more secure than the one before. We are a company built on the foundation of challenging and disrupting the way things are done, and we’re looking for innovators who are as committed to shaping the future of cybersecurity as we are.

Who We Are

We believe collaboration thrives in person. That’s why most of our teams work from the office full time, with flexibility when it’s needed. This model supports real-time problem-solving, stronger relationships, and the kind of precision that drives great outcomes.

Your Career

The team is an exciting crossroads between Support/TAC (Technical Assistance Center) and Engineering. The team is empowered to drive decisions and to be the thought leaders within the Global Customer Services organization at Palo Alto Networks. On any given day members of the team may work with new products and software very early in the new product lifecycle, provide training, assist a support engineer with a customer issue, replicate a complex issue in our lab, evaluate customer network design or help improve features for supportability and usability. We are a relatively small global team and will only consider the top people from a support or engineering background. You are a good candidate if you are excellent at working with many cross-functional teams such as developers, product management, sales and also customers. In particular, you will be engaging with Cortex XSOAR – The industry’s most comprehensive SOAR platform, and with our shiny new Cortex Agentix.

Your Impact

  • Continuously improving Support escalations to Engineering (process and quality) in a fast paced environment, in a large scale

  • Enablement of the TAC teams - assist with ad hoc Q&A and structured training throughout the year

  • Ownership of critical issues. This doesn’t always mean being responsible for the case, the focus is on the technical driver of the case the customer calls about. This usually means working with the TAC case owner and engineering on a replication or verification, sending guidelines and communicating updates

  • New product development - combine the responsibility of continuing our state-of-the-art technical knowledge and skills learned from prior technical support, an Enablement engineer will identify supportability and usability requirements for new products during the design phase as well as post GA via enhancement requests

  • Develop and deliver training materials for TAC. Training is a key component of the day-to-day success of support. An Enablement engineer is responsible for staying up to date with technical details on Palo Alto Networks new products and industry in general and sharing those details with TAC via white papers, BBLs, or TOIs

  • Develop tools for TAC – For better visibility and troubleshooting

  • Filling in the gaps. Sometimes there are opportunities to “catch” a problem before it escalates. Our team is positioned to identify or help in these unplanned projects that result in a better customer experience, cost reduction or better security

Your Experience 

  • 7+ years in support roles, working directly with large global customers and partners in addition to internal teams (such as DevOps, Engineering, QA, Product managers..)

  • Excellent written and verbal interpersonal skills with strong presentation abilities. 

  • Basic networking knowledge - Ability to independently debug broad, complex, and unique environments with mixed applications and protocols 

  • API/Integration Experience: Experience working with third-party APIs and designing/reviewing technical requirements for tool integrations.

  • The ability to read source code (C/C++/Python..) 

  • Strong scripting skills (JS/Python/Powershell)

  • Experience training internal technical teams

Nice to Have

  • Experience as an Enablement Engineer or an Escalations Engineer.

  • Prior experience with SOAR platforms, especially in writing, modifying, and troubleshooting playbooks to automate incident handling.

  • Experience with Windows OS based applications (Installation, troubleshooting, Debugging).

  • Understanding of SOC workflows, incident response processes, and integration between detection, investigation, and remediation tools.

The Team

Our technical support team is critical to our success and mission. As part of this team, you enable customer success by providing support to clients after they have purchased our products. Our dedication to our customers doesn’t stop once they sign – it just evolves. Our technical team provides the behind-the-scenes support to meet our customer’s needs. As threats and technology evolve, we stay in step to accomplish our mission. You’ll be involved in implementing new products, transitioning from old products to new, and will fix integrations and critical issues as they are raised – in fact, you’ll seek them out to ensure our clients are safely supported. We fix and identify technical problems, with a pointed focus of providing the best customer support in the industry.

We’re a fast-growing, immensely successful organization because of our people and products (built and supported by our people). We work the frontlines against cyberthreats and attacks, protecting everyday transactions in the digital environment. It means we’re good at scaling quickly to new threats, get fulfillment from resolving new problems, and think about things just plain differently.
