Solutions Engineer

About Semgrep

Our mission is to make world-class software security available to everyone. This means building program analysis tools that are open source, easy to use, powerful, and fast. It also means building a team with security expertise and a passion for great developer experiences. Most of all, it means working with honesty and respect in a diverse community of dreamers and builders. We’ve redefined static analysis tooling by committing to all of these, and turned our project, Semgrep, into an essential safeguard for code at Snowflake, Dropbox, and more.

About the role

As a Solutions Engineer at Semgrep, you’ll be an integral part of a diverse team working to help developers everywhere build more secure applications. Your daily engagements with our customers would directly contribute to a more productive and durable development process that catches software vulnerabilities before they go live. You will be the technical expert working directly with our customers to understand their goals and challenges, integrate our products and services into their environments, and ensure we deliver the maximum value possible.

Location expectations:

• This role will be covering the West Coast of the US, so even though this role is 100% remote, our expectation is this person will be located in the PST timezone.

Prior experience in a fast-paced, tech environment is helpful, but we are more interested in your problem solving abilities than your pedigree. So if this opportunity excites you but you don’t meet the exact requirements, apply anyway!

What you’ll do

• Become an expert on Semgrep and integrating our platform into the software development lifecycle.
• Own the technical aspects of the sales process - demonstrate product features and expertise, deliver successful proof of concepts, and educate customers on best practices.
• Help our customers identify and understand their security vulnerabilities and build robust systems to detect and prevent them in the future.
• Articulate to customers how our platform is uniquely differentiated to power their security program with greater speed, accuracy, and flexibility than other offerings.
• Champion our customers’ needs internally to guide our product and development teams in continuing to deliver products that delight application security teams and their organizations.
• Minimize customer friction in adopting and deploying Semgrep through building automation, refining processes, or creating content for external consumption.
