About the role

As a Sales Engineer, you will partner closely with our Account Executives and post-sales technical teams to drive the technical sale, from scoping and discovery through solution design, proof‑of‑concepts, and implementation handoff. You’ll translate complex security requirements into compelling demos and architecture proposals, build trust with technical stakeholders, and ensure our platform meets customer needs.

  • Cybersecurity Domain Expertise: Hands‑on experience with security or GRC platforms including, but not limited to, human risk, vulnerability management, SAT, or adjacent IT infrastructure
  • Startup & GTM Agility: Success in early‑stage (Seed–Series C) or high‑growth environments, comfortable wearing multiple hats and moving quickly from discovery to POC
  • Technical Fluency: Skilled in API integrations, data ingestion pipelines, and security tool ecosystems, able to demo both UI and API‑driven workflows
  • Communication & Facilitation: Excels at translating technical concepts for both C‑level and engineering audiences, strong workshop facilitation skills
  • Ownership & Collaboration: Self‑starter who owns the technical track end‑to‑end and thrives in close partnership with sales, product, and customer success

Human errors drive 70% of security breaches, making human behavior the primary and growing attack surface. At Fable, we believe that the right tools can convert people from targets to another layer of defense.

Fable is the human risk platform that directly shapes employee behavior.

Our team includes alumni from Meta, Twitter, Flexport, and top-tier universities like Waterloo, Columbia, Berkeley, Purdue, CMU, Stanford, UCLA, and USC. We are experiencing explosive growth, making this a career-defining opportunity to join and shape the future of security.
