Your Career

As a member of our Sales Leadership Team you will be tasked with leading one of our Prisma Cloud Sales Teams. Prisma Cloud is the industry’s only comprehensive Cloud Native Security Platform, integrating capabilities from the world’s most innovative security start-ups and delivering them on an enhanced platform to provide market-leading functionality across all our individual modules.

You will build and drive your sales team to exceed company objectives while growing your region according to plan.
