Working with high profile customers across militaries, government agencies, airports, critical infrastructure, law enforcement and many others, in over 70 countries around the world.

Be part of a well-funded and agile organisation, as a valued member of an autonomous, cross-functional team.

As this role is within a scale-up business in a nascent industry, it involves a substantial amount of planning and strategy work alongside sales execution. The ideal candidate will be both a thinker and a doer—the job will require a significant amount of responding to incoming leads and performing essential tasks, along with high-level sophisticated work and management of several channel partners. The role will involve hands-on work and learning about complex sensor and electronics systems.

A competitive compensation package will be offered for the role, including a competitive base salary, attractive uncapped sales commission, and stock options.
