• Positive attitude, strong customer focus, and a high sense of ownership over customer results
• Solid technical understanding of SaaS security models including multi-tenant cloud environments
• Working knowledge of DNS, TCP/IP, TLS, and enterprise networking concepts as they relate to email and SaaS security

Nice to Have
