We're looking for an ambitious and resilient sales professional to join us on the ground floor and help build our legacy. Forget being a small cog in a giant machine. Here, your wins are company wins. You won't just execute a playbook; you'll help write it.

This isn't your typical sales role. This is a launchpad. This is your chance to gain more hands-on, full-cycle sales experience in 12 months than you would in three years at a larger company. You will have a direct line to leadership, your ideas will be heard, and your impact on our revenue and growth will be immediate and visible. If you are driven by the opportunity to build something from the ground up and accelerate your career in the process, this is the role for you.

• You will build and manage a robust sales pipeline from the ground up through strategic, persistent outbound prospecting and discovery.
• You will consistently meet and exceed quarterly revenue targets, taking ownership of the full sales cycle from initial meeting to close.
• You will forge strong relationships with key decision-makers (CISOs, VPs of IT, Security Directors) within your target accounts.
• You will contribute to the evolution of our sales process by providing real-time feedback from the front lines.

Here’s what you’ll need

• Four year college degree or equivalent
• 2+ years experience in full cycle sales. Must have prior experience closing deals
