About the role

  • Lead technical discovery calls to assess prospect environments, identify pain points around privileged access, identity sprawl, and cloud security posture, and determine product/client fit.
  • Deliver compelling standard and custom product demonstrations tailored to prospect-specific environments, including multi-cloud architectures, IdP integrations (Entra ID, Okta, Ping Identity), and DevOps workflows.
  • Own and execute Proof-of-Concept (POC) engagements end-to-end—defining success criteria, configuring test use cases, guiding customer implementation, and driving to a technical win.
  • Proactively evangelize the capabilities of Britive’s platform, including JIT/ephemeral access, Zero Standing Privileges, and unified identity security across cloud and on-prem environments.
  • Work closely with Engineering and Product teams to translate field feedback into product improvements and maintain deep, current knowledge of the platform.
  • Partner with Account Executives throughout the sales cycle to develop technical strategies, respond to RFPs and security questionnaires, and remove technical blockers.
  • Build strong relationships as a trusted technical advisor, ensuring customers maximize the value of their Britive investment and creating strong references, renewal opportunities, and upsell potential.
  • Continuously gather competitive intelligence and market feedback to inform positioning and go-to-market strategies.

Requirements

  • Minimum 5 years of relevant experience in a Sales Engineer, Solutions Architect, or similar technical pre-sales role for a B2B software company.
  • Demonstrated experience with Identity & Access Management (IAM) and Privileged Access Management (PAM), including hands-on familiarity with at least one enterprise IdP: Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), Okta, or Ping Identity.
  • Strong technical consultative selling skills with a disciplined sales process and the ability to manage complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise evaluations.
  • Knowledge of additional programming or scripting languages (e.g., Python, Java, Shell) and experience working with REST APIs and developer toolchains.
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps tooling such as Terraform, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions, or similar.
  • Familiarity with Zero Trust principles, least-privilege access models, and security frameworks relevant to multi-cloud and hybrid environments.
  • Prior experience working at an early-stage or growth-stage technology company; comfort with ambiguity and a startup pace.
  • Strong interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills with the ability to engage technical and executive audiences equally.
  • Experience working with CRM and sales enablement software (e.g., Salesforce, Clari, Gong).
  • Ability to travel and collaborate globally across geographies and cultures.
