About Outtake

Outtake is Next-Generation Digital Risk Protection. Agentic search across your full surface, workflows you control, intelligence that compounds with every takedown. Backed by CRV and ICONIQ.

About the role

This is a Sales Engineer role. You will bridge the gap between customers' security challenges and Outtake's AI-powered platform, working at the intersection of sales and engineering. Technical fluency in complex cybersecurity environments and the communication skills to command the room with CISOs and security leaders are both essential to the role.

What they're looking for

  • 2–6 years of experience in solutions engineering, sales engineering, or technical pre-sales, ideally in cybersecurity or adjacent infrastructure/SaaS
  • A strong understanding of modern attack surfaces, threat detection, and security operations workflows
  • Technical fluency with APIs, data models, and system architecture, with the ability to speak credibly to both engineering teams and security practitioners
  • Exceptional communication and presentation skills across technical and executive audiences
  • Natural curiosity and genuine passion for cybersecurity and continuous learning
  • High adaptability, with the ability to context-switch between customer conversations, live demos, and technical deep-dives
More about this role

Outtake exists to empower and facilitate trust for a digital-first world. Today, impersonation, fraud, AI-driven scams, and identity abuse spread faster than any security team can respond to. So we built something different: an agentic AI platform that proactively detects, monitors, and takes down impersonators, automating protection in hours, not weeks.

Built by ex-Palantir, ex-CTO/founders, and ex-Notion engineers, Outtake is designed for clarity, autonomy, and velocity. Our goal is ambitious: become the trust layer of the modern internet. And we intend to do it with a lean, dense, exceptionally talented team.

Outtake is backed by top-tier investors and operators who believe in our mission and our model. With strong financial footing and a long runway, we prioritize creating an environment where people can do the best work of their careers.
