Remote, United States

Our take: The real work here is winning the long trust of public sector leaders and turning a DevSecOps platform into mission outcomes through patient, consultative, self-directed selling.

If you like being the trusted person a state CIO calls first, this is your kind of long game: multi-year plans, real ownership, and deals that help agencies build and secure software better. You will translate a technical DevSecOps platform into mission outcomes, working with almost no one looking over your shoulder. It suits someone who enjoys the patient, consultative work of public sector selling and genuinely cares that the customer succeeds.
