It’s a strong entry point into technical pre-sales at a company building the security layer for an AI native software world.
About the Team
You’ll join Snyk’s Solutions Engineering team, the technical bridge between our Sales, Product, and Customer Success organizations.

Share what you learn from customer conversations with the broader Solutions Engineering team, feeding into how we position Snyk
Work with channel partners on demos and proof of concepts, building your understanding of how they sell and support Snyk
Document proof of concept outcomes and common objections so the team can reuse what you learn
Take on increasingly complex accounts and technical scenarios as you build product depth and sales fluency
Requirements
2+ years of experience in sales engineering, software development, or a related technical customer facing role, or equivalent hands on experience
Familiarity with a range of coding languages and how they fit together
A working understanding of developer and DevOps ecosystems and practices
Genuine curiosity about new technologies and a habit of digging into how things work
Comfort setting your own milestones on a task, communicating progress, and asking for help when you hit something new
Interest in or early experience working with technical customers, including at the mid market or enterprise level
A team oriented mindset and a genuine interest in learning from more senior teammates
Nice to have: a developer background or hands on coding experience
Nice to have: experience in an early stage or fast growing startup, especially in developer tooling
Nice to have: working fluency with AI assisted development tools such as Claude, Copilot, or Gemini
