The Role
The members of our Sales Engineering team are highly valued business partners that play a critical role in our sales process every single day.
As an Inside Sales Engineer working with Commercial accounts, you will be one of the most important members of the Proofpoint sales team.
After initial onboarding and regular product training, you will become a trusted advisor to our Account Managers and Channel Partners in region, as well as our current and future customers. As a technical liaison and subject matter expert on all things Proofpoint, you will help to deliver People-Centric solutions that protect against today’s cyber threats.
You will get to develop and tell a compelling story that will excite your customer and have them eager to hear more. Your story will be illustrated with an amazing product demonstration often followed by a proof-of-concept or threat assessment which will ultimately result in you providing a compelling solution to your customer that you will take pride in being a part of. It’s an exciting time to be at Proofpoint!

Your day-to-day

  • Collaborate with the sales team to develop and execute targeted account penetration strategies
  • You will design and champion complex People-Centric Security solutions encompassing the entire Proofpoint portfolio
  • Occasionally assist in professional services deployments and technical training, and present or attend industry seminars and/or trade shows
  • Provide valuable customer insights and real-world experiences to Product Management, Marketing and Product Development (Engineering) teams
  • Work with our Channel team to help support and enable our Distributors and Resellers
  • You will become an expert in Email Security, Advanced Persistent Threats, Attack Protection, Threat Response, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), and the threat landscape
  • Occasional travel required.

What You Bring To The Team

  • Proven hands-on experience, either as a Sales/Systems Engineer, Technical Account Manager, Security Engineer, or senior level product support, preferably related to the cyber-security industry
  • Experience in either secure messaging, data security, network security, endpoint, NOC/SOC, or MSP-related cybersecurity
  • Excellent presentation, communication, and organizational skills
  • Fluency in English and German and / or Polish languages are required, any additional languages are a plus.
  • Exposure to at least two of the following skill sets are recommended
  • Enterprise email solutions such as Exchange, O365, G-Suite, Lotus Domino or working knowledge of SMTP
  • IT security related areas such as Vulnerability and Risk Management, Security Operations or Incident Response
  • Data Loss Prevention (DLP), compliance and data privacy
  • Cloud security and shadow IT monitoring
  • Cloud computing Infrastructure (e.g. AWS/Azure)

Nice to have

Hands on experience with the following:

  • Directory Services and protocols such as Active Directory, Azure AD, LDAP, iDP (identity providers)
  • Email authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC)
  • Networking and protocols such as DNS, LDAP, HTTP
  • Experience with security standards and frameworks such as ISO, MITRE and/or NIST
  • CISSP, CCSP or other industry certification is beneficial.

In addition to the above, if you have a consultative approach to problem solving and/or have a desire to pivot your career towards a sales direction. And if you thrive in fast paced, high energy environments with the ability to work independently and adapt quickly while maintaining a positive attitude, we would love to speak to you!
