This is a customer-facing pre-sales and advisory role. The position shapes technical solutions, scopes services, supports proposals, and guides technical validation. Delivery teams own post-sale implementation and operational execution.

- Delivery experience standing up, configuring, migrating, or operationalizing privileged-access tooling.
- Familiarity with NIST, CIS Controls, Zero Trust, SOX, PCI DSS, HIPAA, or other control frameworks relevant to privileged access.
- Relevant certifications such as CISSP, CCSP, CyberArk, GIAC, or equivalent.
Success Measures: First 6-12 months
- Establish trusted working relationships with Security Sales, account teams, delivery leaders, CyberArk, and adjacent partners.
- Lead repeatable identity-security discovery and workshop motions that produce qualified opportunities and clear next steps.
- Demonstrate the ability to produce accurate solution designs, services proposals, and technical validation plans.
- Build reusable CyberArk/PIM/PAM architectures, discovery assets, and enablement content.
