Remote, United States

Our take: The real work here is building and coaching a regional team of technical specialists to win complex DevSecOps deals, while placing scarce expertise where the pipeline needs it most.

If you love turning a group of brilliant technical specialists into a team that wins the hardest deals, this is your room. You stay close enough to the technology to step into the biggest opportunities yourself, while spending most of your energy coaching people toward wins, deciding where your experts land, and building a culture where misses are just data. It rewards the leader who finds real joy in both the strategy call and the one-to-one that grows someone's career.
