We are seeking a customer-facing Senior Security Solutions Engineer to design, implement, and modernize enterprise security environments across identity, network, cloud, endpoint, and security operations. This role is intended for experienced engineers with strong security fundamentals who are equally passionate about Zero Trust, automation, cloud security, AI-assisted operations, and multi-vendor engineering.

The successful candidate will work directly with customers, account teams, architects, and technology partners throughout the complete project lifecycle from technical discovery and solution design through implementation, migration, optimization, documentation, and knowledge transfer.

Candidates should demonstrate strong technical depth in multiple areas and broad knowledge of modern enterprise cybersecurity.

Microsoft Active Directory and Entra , Okta, Cisco Duo, MFA, passwordless authentication, Conditional Access, SAML, OAuth/OIDC, PKI, PAM, IGA, ITDR/ISPM, Non-Human Identity, Cisco ISE/NAC, and Zero Trust identity architectures.

• Lead technical discussions with engineers, architects, IT leadership, and security executives.
• Translate business and security requirements into practical technical architectures.
• Communicate complex security concepts to technical and non-technical audiences.
• Understand dependencies across identity, endpoint, network, cloud, and security operations.
• Evaluate technologies based on customer requirements rather than a single-vendor approach.
• Independently lead technical portions of complex customer engagements while balancing security, usability, operational complexity, and business requirements.

Professional-level certifications are strongly valued but may be substituted with equivalent hands-on engineering and consulting experience.
