Why we read it this way (7)
This is a pre-sales Domain Consultant / Solutions Engineer role focused on AI Security — it sits between a pure security analyst (15-1212) and a pre-sales technical consultant. 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is used as the best fit; 15-1212 is the close runner-up given the security domain depth required.
The role is fully remote with no stated primary metro; no CBSA is assigned.
The 6+ years requirement is explicitly tied to pre-sales experience in AI Security, Cloud Security, Application/API Security, or DevSecOps — treated as the overall experience gate.
AWS, Azure, and GCP are listed together as interchangeable cloud-native platform examples; AWS is used as the primary with Azure and GCP as alternatives.
Prompt Injection, Goal Hijacking, and AI Agent/MCP governance are named as domain knowledge areas but are not discrete tool/technology names — they are captured under the broader 'AI Runtime Security' skill rather than emitted as separate entries.
Prisma AIRS is Palo Alto Networks' own product; it appears throughout the posting as the solution being sold/supported rather than as a candidate prerequisite, so it is marked preferred.
Compensation includes base salary plus commission target (sales/commissioned role), restricted stock units, and a bonus, per the posting.
