Company Overview

Our Vision

At Palo Alto Networks, our journey begins and ends with our vision:

To be the trusted partner in cybersecurity, safeguarding our digital existence.

We envision a future where each day is more secure than the last. Our organization is founded on the principles of challenging and redefining the status quo, and we seek innovators who are dedicated to shaping the future of cybersecurity.

Our Work Philosophy

We prioritize flexibility and choice in all our employee programs. We have transformed the conventional perspective that all employees share identical needs and desires. We provide personalized options, allowing our team members to select what suits them best—from wellness support to professional growth and beyond.

At Palo Alto Networks, we recognize the value of collaboration and the importance of in-person interactions. This is why our employees typically work from the office three days a week, reserving two days for flexibility to work in environments where they feel most productive. This arrangement encourages spontaneous discussions, effective problem-solving, and the development of trusted relationships. While specifics may change, our aim is to cultivate an atmosphere where innovation flourishes, with office-based teams collaborating three days a week to succeed together.

Position Overview

Your Role

Prisma AccessTM (formerly known as GlobalProtect Cloud Service) delivers security directly from the cloud, ensuring safe access to cloud resources. It integrates the connectivity and security required, providing comprehensive protection wherever it is needed.

  • Partner with DevOps and Technical Support teams to resolve customer issues.
  • Collaborate with other software development teams to integrate PanOS features into Prisma Access.
  • Conduct interviews, mentor, and coach new team members.

Team Dynamics

Our Engineering Team

Our engineering team is central to our products—directly linked to our mission of preventing cyber threats. We are continuously innovating, challenging conventional approaches to cybersecurity. Our engineers embrace the opportunity to create solutions for problems that have yet to be addressed.

Our Commitment to Diversity

We are pioneers who dream ambitiously, take calculated risks, and challenge the norms of cybersecurity. Our mission cannot be fulfilled without diverse teams innovating together.
