• Influence Product Strategy: Capture, distill, and prioritize field feedback and share with the Product team. Build influential, productive relationships with engineering and product teams to address gaps, double down on strengths, and steer product direction.

• Create and Deliver Compelling Content: Create and confidently deliver innovative content and technical presentations on product positioning, differentiators, and best practices for Snykers, business partners, and customers. This includes speaking to and engaging large audiences (50+ attendees) both in-person and virtually.

• Optimize Operations and Thought Leadership: Continuously optimize operations and coordinate resources to support deeply technical engagements worldwide. Work on thought leadership content, external marketing, blogs, and whitepapers to help build a pipeline for Snyk solutions.

• Application Security Expertise: You have hands-on experience reviewing or fixing vulnerabilities identified using SAST or SCA tools (either professionally or in personal projects).

• Collaboration & Leadership: You have participated in, or led cross-functional teams on key projects and can create alignment, rally resources, and delight stakeholders.

• Communication & Mentorship: You have outstanding interpersonal abilities, strong written and verbal communication skills, and love to teach and coach as a habit. You have strong written and spoken English.
