At Ping Identity, we believe in making digital experiences both secure and seamless for all users, without compromise. We call this digital freedom.

Our intelligent, cloud identity platform lets people shop, work, bank, and interact wherever and however they want. Without friction. Without fear.

This role combines hands-on work with demo and proof-of-concept environments, technical content, product workflows, and learning experiences with project coordination and operational support for our Technical Enablement program.

• Learn Ping products and foundational identity and access management concepts, and apply that knowledge to technical enablement activities.
• Configure, test, refresh, and troubleshoot demo, lab, and proof-of-concept environments; document setup steps, known issues, and repeatable processes.
• Create, update, and repurpose technical enablement materials, including quick-start guides, lab instructions, technical walkthroughs, presentations, and recorded content.
• Execute defined test cases, validate product workflows, document defects or gaps, and communicate findings clearly to technical stakeholders.
• Support onboarding, training sessions, workshops, and other live or virtual enablement events through demos, hands-on exercises, logistics, materials, and follow-up.
• Support the Technical Enablement Program Manager with task tracking, schedules, meeting preparation, content publishing, program documentation, reporting, feedback collection, and other operational activities.
• Work hours generally align with 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday; flexibility outside these hours may be required due to Ping’s global business, and minimal travel for events may be required, up to 10%.

You have:

• A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Cybersecurity, Engineering, or a related field, or 5+ years of equivalent experience.
• 3+ years of experience in customer-facing or communication-focused roles.

• The ability to follow technical procedures, troubleshoot using logs and documentation, identify and communicate issues, and elevate blockers appropriately.
• Strong communication, organization, attention to detail, collaboration, and ownership, with the energy, initiative, commitment, and passion to learn; ability to build peer support and strong internal relationships; and an understanding of adult learning principles and program effectiveness measurement.
