Our mission is to secure the next generation of cloud infrastructure, helping businesses innovate without fear. We foster a dynamic, fast-paced, and collaborative environment, focused on excellence and customer success.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Solution Architect (SA) to join our expanding team in India. This role is pivotal in providing deep technical expertise throughout the sales cycle, ensuring successful proof-of-concepts (POCs), and architecting tailored CNAPP solutions for our enterprise clients. The ideal candidate possesses a strong background in cloud security, DevSecOps, and modern cloud architecture, coupled with exceptional communication skills in English.

  • Lead and execute all technical validation activities, including Proof-of-Concepts (POCs), pilots, and hands-on demonstrations, ensuring successful completion and clear articulation of value.
  • Develop comprehensive solution architectures and technical proposals that integrate Upwind Security into the customer's existing cloud and CI/CD environments (AWS, Azure, GCP).

Expertise and Market Intelligence

  • Maintain expert-level knowledge of the Upwind CNAPP platform, competitive landscape, and emerging trends in cloud-native security (e.g., KSPM, CIEM, CSPM, CWPP, shift-left security).
  • Act as a trusted technical advisor, educating customers and partners on cloud security best practices, DevSecOps principles, and risk mitigation strategies.
  • Provide valuable feedback to the global product management and engineering teams regarding regional technical requirements, feature requests, and competitive intelligence specific to the Indian market.

Collaboration and Enablement

  • Work closely with Account Executives (AEs) to develop account strategies, qualify opportunities, and accelerate technical closure.
  • Assist in the technical enablement and training of channel partners (SIs, VARs) to ensure they can effectively position and deploy the Upwind Security solution.
  • Create and refine technical sales collateral, including presentations, diagrams, deployment guides, and best practice documents tailored for the Indian audience.

Why Join Upwind Security?

  • Be a key technical leader in establishing our market presence in India.
  • Work with a cutting-edge CNAPP technology that is revolutionizing cloud security.
  • Competitive salary, bonus structure, and stock options.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
