Role We are looking for a Principal Product Specialist for the Zero Trust Browser team to join our Product Management team. This is a remote role based in the UK, reporting to the Director, Product Management. You will provide technical leadership for Zscaler’s Zero Trust Browser solutions, owning product success throughout the sales lifecycle. You will serve as a thought leader for browser-layer security architecture and strategy while partnering with sales and engineering to drive technical wins and product enhancements for our Zero Trust Browser offerings.

What You’ll Do (Role Expectations)

• Provide technical leadership for Zscaler’s Zero Trust Browser solutions, owning product success and architectural strategy throughout the sales lifecycle
• Lead in-person and virtual meetings with customer executives and practitioners to provide executive-level overviews of Zscaler’s browser security strategy and deep-dive technical workshops
• Articulate the value of browser-layer security controls, including threat monitoring, attack prevention, in-browser DLP, secure private application access, and Privileged Remote Access (PRA)
• Develop technical collateral, including best practice guides, proof-of-value (POV) test plans, demo assets, and reference architectures to support internal teams and customer presentations
• Conduct and support POVs, technical evaluations, and initial deployments, helping customers validate architecture, policy design, and operational fit for Zero Trust Browser use cases
• Troubleshoot and debug customer issues across evaluations and deployments, partnering closely with Engineering, Support, and Customer Success teams to drive timely resolution
• Collaborate with Engineering, Product Management, and Marketing to drive product enhancements based on direct customer feedback, competitive insights, and market trends
• Act as a post-sales subject matter expert for Customer Success and Deployment teams to help ensure successful technical implementation, adoption, and ongoing customer success

Who You Are (Success Profile)

• You thrive in ambiguity. You are comfortable building the path as you walk it. You thrive in a dynamic environment, seeing ambiguity not as a hindrance, but as the raw material to build something meaningful.
• You act like an owner. Your passion for the mission fuels your bias for action. You operate with integrity because you genuinely care about the outcome. True ownership involves leveraging dynamic range: the ability to navigate seamlessly between high-level strategy and hands-on execution.
• You are a problem-solver. You love running toward challenges because you are laser-focused on finding solutions, knowing that solving hard problems delivers the biggest impact.
• You are a high-trust collaborator. You are ambitious for the team, not just yourself. You embrace our challenge culture by giving and receiving ongoing feedback, knowing that candor delivered with clarity and respect is the truest form of teamwork and the fastest way to earn trust.
• You are a learner. You have a true growth mindset and are committed to your own development, actively seeking feedback to become a better partner and a stronger teammate. You love what you do and you do it with purpose.

• Strong understanding of Internet and security protocols, including HTTP, SSL/TLS, DNS, and secure access patterns for web and private applications
• Proven track record of developing technical collateral and supporting go-to-market initiatives that drive successful sales outcomes
• Exceptional interpersonal and presentation skills, with the ability to engage effectively with both technical practitioners and executive leadership
• Experience collaborating cross-functionally with Engineering, Operations, Product Management, and customer-facing teams
