Solutions Architect (US West)
Cogent Security, Remote
The role
As a Solutions Engineer at Cogent Security, you'll be the technical backbone of our post-sales motion - designing and scoping the vulnerability management solutions that get our most complex customers live on Cogent. You're not writing production code, but you're technical enough to speak the same language as a customer's security engineers, translate their environment into a concrete implementation plan, and write the tickets that turn that plan into reality.
This role sits within Customer Success, working alongside TAMs who own the relationship and success metrics, while you own the technical design. Over time, we want to reduce how much of this work requires a dedicated Forward Deployed Engineer for every implementation - which means the person in this seat needs deep enough domain expertise in vulnerability management to scope things right the first time.
This is a founding role for someone who's comfortable with ambiguity, has done this before at an early-stage company, and has sat across the table from CISOs and enterprise security teams.
