Who You Are:

Experience co-selling in a matrixed environment, supporting or partnering with AEs and cross-functional teams
Strong understanding of the partner/channel sales model, including how to navigate and influence joint selling motions
Familiarity with modern security solutions such as SIEM, CSPM, CWPP, container/Kubernetes security
