From the employer
Snyk is the leader in secure AI software development, helping millions of developers develop fast and stay secure as AI transforms how software is built. Our AI-native Developer Security Platform integrates seamlessly into development and security workflows, making it easy to find, fix, and prevent vulnerabilities — from code and dependencies to containers and cloud.
Our mission is to empower every developer to innovate securely in the AI era — boosting productivity while reducing business risk. We’re not your average security company - we build Snyk on One Team, Care Deeply, Customer Centric, and Forward Thinking.
It’s how we stay driven, supportive, and always one step ahead as AI reshapes our world.

You'll build hands-on product expertise, run demos and proof of concepts for well defined accounts, and grow into owning more complex deals as you develop. It's a strong entry point into technical pre-sales at a company building the security layer for an AI native software world.

● Work with channel partners on demos and proof of concepts, building your understanding of how they sell and support Snyk
● Document proof of concept outcomes and common objections so the team can reuse what you learn
● Take on increasingly complex accounts and technical scenarios as you build product depth and sales fluency
What you’ll bring

● Familiarity with a range of coding languages and how they fit together
● A working understanding of developer and DevOps ecosystems and practices
