2) top presales for cybersecurity in a region. Most presales are 100k-200k once again. You're usually the top guy in the region in the company for a global tech organisation.
3) engineering. Usually top person in a regional or global team for a large tech company.

There's varying pay, but usually the bigger region you cover, the more prestigious company you work for, and being the go to person inside the company usually can get 300k+.

Most of these jobs, in fact, I have gotten around 5 offers above 300k, and all are via headhunters who work for these large tech or large cybersecurity companies. Interviews are generally very hard and need to spend a lot of time on it. Feel free to ask any other questions and I'll try to give my perspective.
1) what certifications do you have and which one opens the most doors for you (other than cissp)

2) how many years of experience do you have?

3) do you jump companies very often? Like maybe 2-3 years? I have seen people who jump every 1.5-2 years and they seem to be doing very well. What do you personally think about this?
