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.

We are relentless in protecting our customers and we believe that the unique ideas of every member of our team contributes to our collective success. Our values were crowdsourced by employees and are brought to life through each of us everyday - from disruptive innovation and collaboration, to execution.

You are the “go to” person for customer interactions that exceed standard systems engineering support requirements. Your role is one of technical mentorship – working with Account Managers to build integrated solutions for our client’s unique environments. With your colleagues, you will displace competing technologies, and build market share within your targeted list of major accounts in your focus region, and most importantly, help your client through the journey for a safer world, as our product integrates to build secure digital transactions.

  • Discuss, with credibility, competitive offers in the marketplace and positions ours as the best one
  • Lead and support customer demonstrations that showcase our unique value proposition
  • Respond effectively to RFIs/RFPs while serving as the main technical point of contact
  • Responsible for a solution sales-based quota and successful deployments of Cortex products
  • Collaborate with field & channel sales teams to recommend and develop customer solutions

Your Experience

  • Cybersecurity expertise with proven experience of SOC technologies is preferred (Endpoint, SIEM, SOAR etc.)
  • Client facing experience, preferably in a pre-sales/sales engineering role
  • Experience working with enterprise customers, demonstrating positive can do  attitude with a client-centric approach and problem solving skills
  • Networking, DevOps and Scripting (Python) are preferred

The Team

As part of our Systems Engineering team, you’ll support the sales team with technical expertise and guidance when establishing trust with key clients. You won’t find someone at Palo Alto Networks that isn’t committed to your success – with everyone pitching in to assist when it comes to solutions selling, learning, and development. As a member of our systems engineering team, you are motivated by a solutions-focused sales environment and find fulfillment in working with clients to resolve incredible complex cyberthreats. 

Our Commitment
