  • A team player. Comfortable collaborating across sales, marketing, and customer success in a fast-moving startup. 
  • Proficient with tools like ZoomInfo, LinkedIn Navigator, Salesforce, SalesLoft, and Clari. 
Requirements
  • 10+ years of sales experience, predominantly in SaaS solution selling to enterprise and larger mid-market accounts. 
  • Strong background in cybersecurity sales- AppSec or DevSecOps experience is a significant advantage.
