The Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange platform protects thousands of customers from cyberattacks and data loss by securely connecting users, devices, and applications in any location. Distributed across 200+ public data centers globally and thousands of private sites at the edge, the SASE-based Zero Trust Exchange is the world’s largest in-line cloud security platform.
We believe the future of work is Human + AI and are building an AI-native enterprise where human potential is amplified by machine intelligence to solve the world’s hardest security challenges. Driven by deep customer obsession, we are committed to the mission, outcome, and to each other. We bring these commitments to life through three core behaviors: ownership and collaboration, trust through outcomes and impact, and a challenge culture with ongoing feedback. Ready to make an impact at the company pioneering security transformation in the AI era? Join us at Zscaler.
We are looking for a Senior Sales Engineer to join our team. This is a hybrid role based in Perth, reporting to the Senior Sales Engineering Manager in the APJ Field Sales department. You will advise and challenge customers to migrate from legacy network and perimeter models toward Zero Trust architecture using the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange (ZTE). In this role, you will lead technical customer engagements, from discovery and architecture discussions to tailored demonstrations and proofs of concept, translating complex security needs into practical business outcomes while partnering cross-functionally to elevate team capability.
- Partner with account teams to understand business and technical priorities, shape solution strategy, and advance complex enterprise opportunities across ANZ
- Design and present compelling security architectures aligned to customer requirements through tailored demonstrations, proofs of concept, and technical workshops
- Build trusted advisor relationships with diverse customer stakeholders, ranging from technical practitioners to senior executives, throughout evaluation and adoption
- Own the technical sales cycle by addressing objections and risks, coordinating specialist resources, and translating customer needs into differentiated solution proposals
- Elevate team capability by mentoring sales engineering peers, sharing reusable technical practices, and collaborating cross-functionally across sales, product, and services teams
- 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.
- Foundational understanding of AI/ML technologies and experience leveraging, securing, or positioning AI-driven solutions to optimize outcomes within your functional domain
- Demonstrated success in a customer-facing sales engineering, solutions consulting, or equivalent technical role supporting complex enterprise opportunities
- Proven ability to lead technical discovery and deliver tailored presentations, demonstrations, and proofs of concept that address customer requirements and business outcomes
- Excellent communication, relationship-building, and collaboration skills, including the confidence to engage credibly with senior customer stakeholders and sales teams
- Customer-first, self-directed approach with a demonstrated ability to manage competing priorities and collaborate effectively across a geographically distributed team
- Familiarity with enterprise AI adoption risks, AI security frameworks, or industry AI security certifications, paired with experience using AI tools to streamline technical sales workflows
- Strategic enterprise experience supporting large, complex customer environments across ANZ, including executive engagement and multi-stakeholder evaluations, with mining industry experience highly regarded
- Hands-on technical exposure to enterprise networking, Zero Trust architecture, SASE/SSE, secure access, cloud security, data protection, or identity security
