Our Mission

At Palo Alto Networks® everything starts and ends with our mission:

Being the cybersecurity partner of choice, protecting our digital way of life.
Our vision is a world where each day is safer and more secure than the one before. We are a company built on the foundation of challenging and disrupting the way things are done, and we're looking for innovators who are as committed to shaping the future of cybersecurity as we are.

Who We Are

This role is remote, but distance is no barrier to impact. Our hybrid teams collaborate across geographies to solve big problems, stay close to our customers, and grow together. You will be part of a culture that values trust, accountability, and shared success where your work truly matters.

Your Career

As a member of our Sales Leadership Team you will be tasked with leading our Prisma Secure Browser, Palo Alto Networks Sales Team in North America. This is an exciting, innovative and high growth business unit within Palo Alto Networks. Prisma Browser is the comprehensive Secure Browser solution, securing the workspace on any device with best-in-class security capabilities. Companies can now easily safeguard work for contractors, hybrid and remote workers, regardless of whether they are at home, on the go, or in the office. Prisma Browser is already securing work for over 6 million users worldwide.

As a Sales Director, you will lead a team of field sellers and help formulate and execute a strategy to maximize business growth, outpacing the great success Prisma Browser saw in FY25. You are instrumental in developing and managing your team to generate pipeline, revenue and achieve individual and team quotas. A challenge inspires you rather than intimidates you, and you aren't afraid of setting accelerated goals to drive you to succeed. More than that, you are motivated by empowering our clients to meet their security needs and you are driven with an encompassing passion for solutions selling in a hyper-growth environment. You're not afraid of addressing the critical challenges they are facing within digital transactions, and you thrive on the pressure.

You will report to the global sales leader for Prisma Browser and will work closely with the founders of Prisma Browser; formerly Talon.
