About Trace3
Trace3 sells to IT leaders at enterprise and commercial companies and, through Trace3 Government (formed in 2024 with Zivaro), to federal, state and local agencies: technology from vendors such as Wiz, Palo Alto Networks and CrowdStrike, quoted from distributor pricing and deal registrations, together with its own consulting and professional services in security, cloud, data and AI and infrastructure. Presales carries the most weight in its hiring: 10 of the 30 sales openings are solutions architects (security operations, exposure management, identity, network and wireless, data and AI, modern infrastructure) and an eleventh leads a regional team of them from Denver. The quota roles are account executives for Southern California, Texas and a Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Cleveland territory, two Trace3 Government AEs (Colorado Springs, and a remote seat that requires a clearance), a Midwest account manager in Chicago, a Chicago sales director, a managing director in Southern California or Texas, and a West services sales consultant who closes consulting engagements. Behind them sit an inside sales manager and an inside sales rep who handle quotes and orders for the field, a remote technical account manager, a pricing analyst for a new central pricing team and a seller-experience program manager, plus five paid internships in Dallas, Grand Rapids and Columbus. Every opening is in the US, most often in Dallas, Michigan, Denver, Chicago and Irvine.

Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.
