• Deliver compelling technical demos, workshops, and enablement sessions that empower partners to uncover and drive Wiz opportunities.

• Serve as a trusted technical advisor to partners, helping them understand and articulate customer cloud and application security challenges and how Wiz uniquely solves them.
• Provide hands-on assistance with partner opportunity qualification, technical validation, and customer-facing engagements.
• Accelerate co-sell execution through close collaboration with Wiz Sales, SEs, and Partner teams to interlock on joint territory plans, account strategies, and pipeline development.
