Imperva Careers

Who are We

Imperva is a pioneer and leader in business security solutions for critical applications and high-value data. Thousands of the world’s leading businesses, government organizations, and service providers rely on Imperva solutions to prevent data breaches, meet compliance mandates, and manage data risk. As part of API Security product development team in Imperva, we are working on the most advanced API Threat Protection platform to go beyond the gateway that discovers, monitors and secures APIs to prevent data breaches. Imperva’s API Security is purpose-built for modern application architectures, and is deployed with zero impact to inline performance, with no changes required to applications or DevOps processes. 

As a Customer Success and Delivery Consultant (CSD Consultant), you will work closely with our key Japanese customers to deliver technical and engineering activities, while also supporting the growth and relationship of our customers as a trusted advisor. 

This role is centered on driving successful implementations and operational experiences after a customer has selected Imperva.  It is expected that this is a “rapid career growth” role that will grow and evolve over time as the services business continues to expand in Japan. 

Initially the successful candidate will be technically focused, directly helping our customers with implementation and operations.  As your career progresses in Imperva, the role will likely pivot to a relationship-centric role to help our enterprise customers adopt Imperva solutions and achieve their desired outcomes.  From the outset, the role will focus on our market-leading Data Security portfolio, which is a key part of our Japan growth strategy. 

The successful candidate will therefore have a strong technical background, ideally in the data security domain, with aspirations to grow into leadership and management of a delivery organization.  Ideally, the candidate will have several years’ experience in a technical project-based or operations-centric role, where they performed implementations and helped to troubleshoot, maintain and optimize the solution over its lifetime.  The ideal candidate will also be able to show a proven ability to forge strong and credible relationships with their stakeholders over a long-term period.
