  • Translate recurring customer issues into roadmap recommendations and architectural improvements
  • Build and maintain technical enablement programmes - playbooks, training, and readiness plans for the CS team

What You'll Bring

  • 7+ years in a senior technical customer-facing role (L3 Support, Solutions Architect, DevOps, or similar)
  • Deep knowledge of Windows internals (ETW, WFP, memory management, driver interactions)
  • Strong macOS internals experience (Endpoint Security framework, System Extensions, FSEvents, MDM)
  • Hands-on experience debugging complex endpoint, network, and backend issues
  • Familiarity with enterprise security ecosystems - EDR, DLP, UEBA, SIEM, SOAR
  • Ability to reverse engineer unexpected endpoint behaviours and identify root causes at pace
  • Strong communicator with executive presence and the ability to lead cross-functional initiatives

Why Apply

  • Own the most complex, high-stakes technical challenges in the business
  • Direct influence on product architecture and engineering roadmap
  • Senior, high-visibility role at a company with record-breaking growth and strong VC backing
