Job description

Splunk, now part of Cisco, sells security operations platforms into Saudi enterprises and financial institutions, and deals of that size need a senior technical voice alongside the account team. This Riyadh-based pre-sales role works on a hybrid basis across a 48 hour week. Client conversations centre on SecOps, mapping each organisation's regulatory and operational needs to integrated security workflows you design and architect. Product demonstrations happen onsite, over webinars and at field events. Proof of Values (POVs) and technical integrations are where technical wins are secured, so hands-on depth counts. Briefings, proposals and issue resolution for the SecOps portfolio also sit with the role, as do long-term relationships with clients and partners. Although this is a senior individual contributor post, mentoring junior colleagues and shaping team strategy prepare you for leadership later on. Expect to bring 10+ years in cybersecurity technical sales, pre-sales or solution architecture, with experience deploying platforms such as Palo Alto Networks (CORTEX), Chronicle, Microsoft Defender or Fortinet and working directly with enterprises in Saudi Arabia. CISSP or SANS certification, Kubernetes, Docker, Python, Java or Go, and familiarity with LLMs or GenAI in security analytics are all welcome extras.
