Want to join the leader in AI-powered data security? Cohesity is a leader in AI-powered data security and cyber resilience, named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Backup and Data Protection Platforms for the seventh consecutive year, serving over 13,600 enterprise customers worldwide, backed by NVIDIA, IBM, HPE, Cisco, AWS, Google Cloud, and others.Cohesity's Security portfolio turns the backup estate into an active line of cyber defense: FortKnox (immutable, air-gapped cyber vaulting), Threat Defense (AI-powered threat detection), Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), powered by Cyera, Data Classification, and Identity Resilience, built with Semperis. This is a full portfolio, not a single product, and it's the reason the role exists.Frontier models can now execute multistage attacks end to end, collapsing the window defenders have between initial access and encryption and narrowing what “protected” means to a short, defensible list: true immutability, a vault outside the production identity domain, genuine air-gap, and a tested recovery path. That's an architecture problem, and it's the one you're hired to solve on these founding seats on a new Security specialist team.Paired one-to-one with a Specialist AE, you own the technical win — architecture, demos, POCs, and the credibility to hold a technical room — while the AE owns the commercial relationship and the number. You bring enough depth to design and defend a ransomware-recovery, immutability, or identity-resilience architecture under technical scrutiny, and enough range to translate it into a business case an executive buys. This is a pre-sales, solution-architecture, and consultative role, not a hands-on production-engineering seat.HOW YOU’LL SPEND YOUR TIME HERE:Own the technical win in every Security deal you support — discovery, solution design, demos, and proof of value — partnered with the Specialist AE who owns the commercial close.Be the security architecture SME in the room on ransomware-recovery design, immutable/air-gapped vaulting, identity resilience, and DSPM — credible with a CISO, VP of Security, or their architects.Architect reference architectures and lead technical workshops, POCs, and pilots that validate ransomware-recovery and identity-resilience use cases across regulated industries.Build executive-quality technical narratives — solution briefs, architecture diagrams, and business cases specific to the
