their impact and who thrive in an environment where we leverage intelligent
systems to stay ahead of evolving threats. We believe in transparency and value
constructive, honest debate—we’re focused on getting to the best ideas, faster.

Zscaler and help shape the future of cybersecurity.
We are looking for a Senior Specialist Sales Engineer to join our team. This is
a remote based in the UK role, reporting to the Specialist Solution Director in
the Zero Trust Cloud team department. The Senior Specialist Sales Engineer
serves as the primary technical lead and strategic advisor, guiding customers
across the UK to secure workloads and traffic across diverse hybrid and
multi-cloud environments by leveraging Zscaler’s Zero Trust Architecture to
achieve key business outcomes. The role will also collaborate with field teams
at the highest levels, driving internal and customer-facing enablement for Zero
Trust Cloud use cases to accelerate Zscaler’s regional GTM strategy while acting
as a critical link between the field and Product Management to influence the
Product Roadmap.
What you’ll do (Role Expectations)
• Serve as the technical expert for Zero Trust Architecture in Cloud
environments, focusing on AWS, Azure, and GCP
• Collaborate with sales and engineering teams to provide technical insights
that influence the Product roadmap
• Lead conversations about Zero Trust Security trends, strategies, and
deployment with customers at all organizational levels
• Run customer Proof-of-Value engagements in collaboration with Sales
Engineers, demonstrating Zscaler’s unique value proposition
• Provide competitive insights and position Zscaler solutions as the best

Who You Are (Success Profile)
• You thrive in ambiguity. You're comfortable building the path as you walk it.
You thrive in a dynamic environment, seeing ambiguity not as a hindrance, but
as the raw material to build something meaningful.
• You act like an owner. Your passion for the mission fuels your bias for
action. You operate with integrity because you genuinely care about the
outcome. True ownership involves leveraging dynamic range: the ability to
navigate seamlessly between high-level strategy and hands-on execution.
• You are a problem-solver. You love running towards the challenges because you
are laser-focused on finding the solution, knowing that solving the hard
problems delivers the biggest impact.
• You are a high-trust collaborator. You are ambitious for the team, not just
yourself. You embrace our challenge culture by giving and receiving ongoing
feedback—knowing that candor delivered with clarity and respect is the truest
form of teamwork and the fastest way to earn trust.
• You are a learner. You have a true growth mindset and are obsessed with your
own development, actively seeking feedback to become a better partner and a
stronger teammate. You love what you do and you do it with purpose.

securing, or positioning AI-driven solutions to optimize outcomes within your
functional domain
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related technical
field, or equivalent certifications/experience
* 5+ years of experience in technical sales, systems engineering, or enterprise
security architecture
• Hands-on expertise in security, networking, and applications, with practical
experience on at least one of AWS, Azure, or GCP
• Strong presentation and communication skills to engage with diverse
audiences, from practitioners to executives
What Will Make You Stand Out (
