• Identify and qualify technical opportunities while developing and maintaining trusted advisor relationships with key customer stakeholders
• Deliver high‑impact sales pitches, technical demonstrations, and whiteboard presentations to ensure successful solution deployments

• You lead with integrity. You do the right thing, even when it’s hard. You hold yourself and others to a high standard of accountability and build trust by matching your words with consistent, transparent action.

• 7+ years of experience in presales roles, with at least 5 years specifically focused on selling network and security solutions and technologies for public sector customers
• Hands‑on experience with systems installation and administration of routers/switches
• Deep technical knowledge of network security principles and applications

What Will Make You Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)

• Technical proficiency with GPO, Active Directory/LDAP, and SSO/SAML integrations
• Strong understanding of HTTP and web security technologies, including proxies, caches, and firewalls
