Description

Claroty’s Public Sector practice is rapidly expanding to secure the mission-critical systems that our society’s safety and stability depend on. We are looking for mission-driven professionals who want to join a high-growth team dedicated to protecting national infrastructure and ensuring essential services remain resilient and uninterrupted.

About the Role:

As a Solutions Engineer, you will be the technical pivot point for our Federal and SLED sales teams. You will bridge the gap between complex OT/ICS environments and Claroty’s cybersecurity solutions, helping government agencies secure their most critical infrastructure. Ideal candidates will be located in the DC area and comfortable with up to 30% travel. Secret clearance is required.

Responsibilities

As a Solutions Engineer, your impact will be:

  • Lead technical discovery to uncover customer pain points in OT/ICS environments. Architect bespoke Claroty solutions that integrate with existing IT/security stacks (SIEM, Firewalls, Asset Management).
  • Plan and execute Proof of Concepts (PoCs). You will own the technical win by demonstrating ROI and platform value through live evaluations.
  • Deliver high-impact demonstrations to audiences ranging from GS-level engineers to C-level executives and Senior Government officials.
  • Partner with Fed/SLED channel partners to create reusable reference architectures. Support RFI/RFP responses with deep technical accuracy.
  • Act as a feedback loop between the field and Engineering. Stay ahead of trends in industrial automation, Zero Trust, and threat landscapes.

Requirements

What do you need to succeed in this role?:

  • 5+ years in Sales Engineering or Solutions Architecture, specifically supporting Federal (Civilian, DoD, or IC) or SLED accounts.
  • Expert-level L2–L4 troubleshooting. Mastery of traffic acquisition (SPAN/RSPAN, TAPs, virtual switching) and virtualization (VMware, Hyper-V).
  • Deep knowledge of industrial protocols (Modbus, CIP, DNP3, IEC 61850) and architect-level understanding of the Purdue Model.
  • Familiarity with translating technical findings into federal risk language (NIST SP 800-82, RMF, CISA CPGs) and navigating ATO constraints.
  • Ability to translate "bits and bytes" into mission-level impact for non-technical stakeholders.
  • Proven ability to manage multiple PoCs and complex RFP timelines simultaneously.
  • Relevant certifications: CISSP, GICSP, or CCNA certifications are highly valued.
  • Active Secret clearance required; Top Secret preferred.
  • Willingness to travel 20-30% as needed
