This would be for positions based in <u>Germany</u> aiming to start beginning of 2024. </p><p>As an Associate Systems Engineer, you will join a cohort of recent technical college graduates for an intense immersion into cybersecurity, Palo Alto Networks technologies, automation, and on-the-job learning. This program includes up to 12 months of formal technical instruction with hands-on lab work, both group and individual projects, technical study, and professional skills development. As you advance through the program you will be placed for up to 6 months with various Systems Engineering (SE) teams to learn how to support customers in the presales process. </p><p>While ramping up on the Academy development track, you will work alongside other SE teams to learn and support the other critical work with customers within the presales process. As part of your development, you will work as a technical advisor in tandem with our sales and channel partners on customer engagements, establishing relationships with customers with the goal of helping them ensure each day is more secure than the one before.</p><p>Upon completion of the program, you will have gained proven technical and professional skills, and shown qualification across multiple certifications, and rotations with senior SEs.

We believe being together facilitates casual conversations and those magic moments where we can work on issues and ideas informally. These moments build capability and deepen trusted relationships and allow our people to feel safe in taking risks and being disruptive.
