Sales Engineer

About Britive Britive is the leader in Cloud‑Native Privileged Access Management (CPAM), delivering the industry’s first dynamic, agentless platform purpose‑built to eliminate standing privileges and enforce Just‑in‑Time (JIT) ephemeral access across multi‑cloud, SaaS, and hybrid environments. Our API‑first platform unifies security policy enforcement across human, agentic AI, and non‑human/machine identities—integrating natively with leading identity providers (Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Ping Identity), cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), and DevOps pipelines (Terraform, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions). Trusted by Fortune 500 organizations, Britive enables Zero Standing Privileges (ZSP) by design, securing access without slowing down engineering teams. About You You are an experienced Sales Engineer who combines deep technical fluency with a passion for customer success. You thrive in complex enterprise environments, are equally comfortable presenting to a CISO and white‑boarding an API integration with a DevOps team, and you bring the consultative instincts to guide prospects through every stage of a technical sale—from initial discovery through proof‑of‑concept and close. You are results‑driven, relationship‑focused, and ready to hit the ground running in a high‑growth, fast‑paced startup environment. Your Impact Key Responsibilities Lead technical discovery calls to assess prospect environments, identify pain points around privileged access, identity sprawl, and cloud security posture, and determine product/client fit. Deliver compelling standard and custom product demonstrations tailored to prospect‑specific environments, including multi‑cloud architectures, IdP integrations (Entra ID, Okta, Ping Identity), and DevOps workflows. Own and execute Proof‑of‑Concept (POC) engagements end‑to‑end—defining success criteria, configuring test use cases, guiding customer implementation, and driving to a technical win. Proactively evangelize the capabilities of Britive’s platform, including JIT/ephemeral access, Zero Standing Privileges, and unified identity security across cloud and on‑prem environments. Work closely with Engineering and Product teams to translate field feedback into product improvements and maintain deep, current knowledge of the platform. Partner with Account Executives throughout the sales cycle to develop technical strategies, respond to RFPs and security questionnaires, and remove technical blockers. Build strong relationships as a trusted technical advisor, ensuring customers maximize the value of their Britive investment and creating strong references, renewal opportunities, and upsell potential. Continuously gather competitive intelligence and market feedback to inform positioning and go‑to‑market strategies.

As set forth in Britive’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law. VETERANS: If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows: A “disabled veteran” is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service‑connected disability. A “recently separated veteran” means any veteran during the three‑year period beginning on the date of such veteran’s discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service. An “active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran” means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense. An “Armed forces service medal veteran” means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985. Voluntary Self‑Identification of Disability Form CC‑305 Page 1 of 1 OMB Control Number 1250‑0005 Expires 04/30/2026 Why are you being asked to complete this form? We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years. How do you know if you have a disability? A disability is a condition that substantially limits one or more of your “major life activities.” If you have or have ever had such a condition, you are a person with a disability. Disabilities include, but are not limited to: Alcohol or other substance use disorder (not currently using drugs illegally) Autoimmune disorder, for example, lupus, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, HIV/AIDS Blind or low vision Cancer (past or present) Cardiovascular or heart disease Celiac disease Cerebral palsy Deaf or serious difficulty hearing Diabetes Disfigurement, for example, disfigurement caused by burns, wounds, accidents, or congenital disorders Epilepsy or other seizure disorder Gastrointestinal disorders, for example, Crohn's Disease, irritable bowel syndrome Intellectual or developmental disability Mental health conditions, for example, depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorder, schizophrenia, PTSD Missing limbs or partially missing limbs Mobility impairment, benefiting from the use of a wheelchair, scooter, walker, leg brace(s) and/or other supports Nervous system condition, for example, migraine headaches, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis (MS) Neurodivergence, for example, attention‑deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder, dyslexia, dyspraxia, other learning disabilities Partial or complete paralysis (any cause) Pulmonary or respiratory conditions, for example, tuberculosis, asthma, emphysema Short stature (dwarfism) Traumatic brain injury Disability Status Select… PUBLIC BURDEN STATEMENT: According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 no persons are required to respond to a collection of information unless such collection displays a valid OMB control number.
