You'll be responsible for end-to-end technical ownership of client engagements—from uncovering security needs, building trust with C-level stakeholders, designing tailored solutions, to ensuring successful delivery alongside technical teams.

• Collaborate closely with Sales to translate business problems into technical solutions, shape RFP responses, and support pre-sales workshops and demos.

• Provide on-site or remote support during proof of concept (POC), pilot, and post-sale deployment stages.
• Be a trusted security advisor to clients, staying ahead of threat trends, compliance changes, and new technologies.
• Travel frequently across the MENA region (and beyond), adapting to diverse customer contexts and regulatory environments.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of experience in cybersecurity, with a strong pre-sales or solution architect background.
• Deep knowledge of cybersecurity technologies (firewalls, EDR, NDR, SIEM, DLP, IAM, etc.) and related frameworks (NCA-ECC/CCC, SAMA CSF, CMA, NESA-IAR, PDPL, IEC 62443, ISO 27001, ISO 27701, GDRP, etc.).
• Familiarity with cloud security (AWS, Azure, Alibaba, Huawei) and DevSecOps practices is preferred.
• Strong communication skills—able to influence, educate, and persuade both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Ability to travel extensively and work independently in cross-cultural, multilingual environments.
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in cybersecurity, computer science, or related fields. Certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CEH are a plus.
• Fluency in both English and Arabic is required.

Ideal Candidate Traits:

• A strategic thinker—you understand what moves a deal forward.
• Curious, adaptable, and proactive—able to thrive in an ambiguous, fast-moving startup environment.
• Customer-first mindset, capable of building long-term trust while delivering short-term wins.
• Strong hands-on technical capability paired with clear business storytelling.
