Senior Technical Success Manager DACH
Snyk
Every day, the world gets more digital thanks to tens of millions of developers building the future faster than ever. But with exponential growth comes exponential risk, as outnumbered security teams struggle to secure mountains of code. This is where Snyk (pronounced “sneak”) comes in. Snyk is a developer security platform that makes it easy for development teams to find, prioritize, and fix security vulnerabilities in code, dependencies, containers, and cloud infrastructure — and do it all right from the start. Snyk is on a mission to make the world a more secure place by empowering developers to develop fast and stay secure.
Joining Snyk means embracing our core values: One Team, Care Deeply, Customer Centric, and Forward Thinking. As a member of our team, you’ll have the opportunity to thrive in a dynamic environment where fostering collaboration, leading with empathy, driving business impact, and inspiring trust are at the heart of everything we do.

- Designing and implementing customized onboarding programs to help customers achieve their security program goals using Snyk’s suite of products.
- Mobilizing internal and external resources to overcome adoption challenges.
- Advocating internally for customer needs and working proactively with Sales, Product, Support, and other teams to identify expansion opportunities and mitigate risks.
- Preparing and leading business review meetings, training sessions, product feedback/roadmap reviews, and other strategic customer interactions.
What You’ll Need:
- Fluency in German and strong English language skills, both written and verbal.
- A proven record of leading technical or engineering programs, including thought leadership, business case development, customer benefit realization, and successful program completion.
- 5+ years of experience in a customer-facing role, engaging with executives, technologists, and/or partners to address business challenges with advanced technologies.
- A passion for technology and an eagerness to learn about developer workflows and application security (AppSec).
- Demonstrable working knowledge of developer or application security tools (e.g., GitHub, Jira, Jenkins, VS Code).
- Experience engaging highly technical customers within the Enterprise (Fortune 100) sector in DACH.
- Exceptional organizational and time-management skills, with the ability to effectively manage competing priorities.
- Strong communication skills for engaging various personas (from end user to executive); adept at facilitating challenging discussions and managing objections.
- A track record of thriving in a collaborative, fast-paced environment as part of a results-oriented team.
- Familiarity with DevOps tooling.
- Experience with scripting and digital program transformation (helpful but not required).
We’d be Lucky if You:
