At Sysdig, we believe cloud security isn't a compromise - it's a promise. From the start, our mission has been clear: to help organizations secure innovation in the cloud, the right way.

We created Falco, the open standard for cloud threat detection, and continue to lead the cloud security market with runtime insights, open innovation, and agentic Al. Creators of technology trusted by over 60% of the Fortune 500, Sysdig gives teams the real-time clarity to move fast and defend what matters most.

Culture matters here. We believe diversity fuels stronger ideas, and open dialogue drives sharper decisions.

What you will do

  • Reporting to the Sr. Director of Product Marketing, you will promote our Open Source Growth and Commercial Viability to help build technical credibility in the open source community and credibility within our sales organization by creating assets, educational content, and promoting strategic engagement around our cloud-native security products. You will work with the Sysdig open source team along with our product organization, sales teams, and other partners to support sales efforts, grow open-source adoption, and enhance our market presence. Focus on expanding engagement within OSS-adopting accounts, supporting targeted outreach, and partnering with sales to ensure the commercial success of these programs, including Falco, Stratoshark, Wireshark, and Threat Feeds—by developing strategies that convert OSS usage into commercial opportunities aligned with the Sysdig CNAPP portfolio.
  • You will partner with sales to align GTM strategy, sales enablement and deliver training, support main deals, create RFP tools, and develop content that boosts engagement, aligns solutions to customer needs, and guide OSS revenue growth.
  • You will boost Sysdig Evangelism and Market Presence through media (online/offline), expertise, and events while aligning with execs on main opportunities and supporting the open-source community through content contributions.
  • You will develop technical content and education, such as on-demand demos and technical assets to drive early-stage demand, support sales, and align enablement with GTM goals through programs like Kraken Discovery Labs.
  • You will establish Performance Tracking and Reporting to track initiative success across publishing, engagement, and sales; report progress on main goals and adjust strategies to guide ongoing impact.

What you will bring with you

  • 10+ years of technical sales, marketing, evangelism, product, solutioning experience in infrastructure and enterprise software with a focus on security tools.
  • Experience with container ecosystem and microservices.
  • Experience working with customers, prospects, and Open Source communities. Working directly with end users and driving adoption of complex technical solutions.
  • Technical proficiency in containers, Kubernetes, cloud technologies, Linux, Falco and related areas. Industry security certifications (e.g., CISSP) encouraged.
  • Experience creating content and presenting to open source communities.

When you join Sysdig, you can expect:

  • Extra days off to prioritize your well-being
  • 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan with a 3% company match
  • Maternity and Parental Leave
  • Mental health support for you and your family through the Modern Health app
