Now, in our most ambitious chapter yet, we are uniting human teams with AI agents. By orchestrating the work agents do best, automating manual tasks and uncovering insights at scale, we create the space for people to focus on what truly matters: judgment, creativity, and big thinking. That is magic at work, and it's what we show up for every day. The Sr. Security Engineer I is a critical technical role focused on deal acceleration, platform security evangelism, and the development of security features and capabilities that enhance our customer security and governance capabilities. You will support security and compliance during sales motions and bridge communication between complex customer security requirements and technical product engineering. You will work directly with customer security leaders (security engineers through CISOs) to communicate and clarify product security posture and controls results (such as pen test results), and will work with Smartsheet engineering to build security features that meet real-world customer requirements. You will display product understanding through highly customized presentation demonstrations to customers and at conferences and events. This role reports to the Senior Director, GRC Engineering and can be based in our Bellevue, WA office or remotely from anywhere in the US where Smartsheet is a registered employer. You Will: * Serve as a trusted advisor to enterprise customers, CISOs, CIOs, and guiding them on Smartsheet security, compliance, and risk management. * Evaluate customer infrastructure diagrams and data flows, and how Smartsheet can help with automation without compromising security. * Present scanning results (NIST 800-53 gaps, vulnerability scans, DAST/pen test, IaC scans) to customers including walking through remediations. Help customers interpret scan results and develop deviation rationales for findings that can't be directly remediated. * Bridge the gap between FedRAMP, NIST 800-53 control language and Smartsheet implementation. Explain what NIST 800-53 controls mean in terms of Terraform configs, Kubernetes manifests, CI/CD pipelines and cloud configuration of Smartsheet across AWS and GCP. * Provide executive-level support during major customer security incidents and ensure lessons learned inform improvements. Understand and adhere to legal, regulatory and compliance requirements while working on sensitive security incidents. * Represent our cloud and AI security strategy at industry events, conferences, and customer councils. * Capture new business by responding to complex customer security questionnaires and technical inquiries using automation and AI tooling, ensuring security-related impediments to closing deals are removed efficiently. * Work alongside product engineering and Corporate IT to define technical specs for security features and protective measures that meet evolving customer requirements. * Translate customer security concerns and regulatory needs into clear technical problem definitions for internal teams. * Create and distribute technical assets (white papers, solution code, blog posts, and video demonstrations).
