Description du poste

Who we are

At CryptoNext Security, we build tomorrow’s cryptographic foundations to protect critical systems against the quantum threat. Our clients include banks, governments, and industrial leaders, who rely on us to deliver secure and standards-compliant solutions in highly complex environments.

Your mission

We’re looking to recruit someone who can coordinate our commercial projects and deliver high-value consulting , while ensuring successful pilots and product deployments. This role is not a technical delivery role ; instead, you will partner with clients, project teams, and sales to manage pilots and interpret outcomes, structure post-quantum (PQ) transition plans, and provide reports. You will also support the pre-sales process by drafting Statements of Work (SoWs). The ideal candidate has 5+ years of experience in cybersecurity project coordination and consulting .

On a daily basis, you will…

Lead technical client projects

• Act as the project owner for client engagements : define timelines, track milestones, anticipate risks, and ensure quality delivery.
• Serve as the primary technical point of contact for the client throughout the entire lifecycle (from onboarding to deployment and post-go-live).
• Collaborate with internal stakeholders (Sales, R&D, Product, Cryptography) to coordinate cross-functional delivery.
• Ensure all stakeholders (internal and external) are aligned and informed on project status and next steps.

Coordinate commercial pilots & product deployments

Oversee pilots and full-scale deployment of CryptoNext products, ensuring they meet client requirements and timelines.

Act as the liaison between the customer and internal teams to ensure a seamless deployment experience.

Provide clear visibility on project progress, risks, and next steps to both clients and internal teams.

Provide consulting services

Support clients in interpreting technical results from pilots and proofs of concept, translating technical outcomes into actionable insights.

Assist clients in structuring their post‑quantum transition plans, including risk assessment and prioritization.

Produce clear and comprehensive reports on pilot projects, summarizing key findings, lessons learned, and next steps.

Support pre-sales

Work with sales to create Statements of Work (SoWs) and project proposals that accurately reflect scope, effort, and client objectives.

Advise on solution fit and deployment strategies during the pre‑sales process.

Support client integration and adoption

Deliver technical workshops, demos, and onboarding sessions tailored to each client’s use case.

Draft or review client-facing documentation : integration guides, deployment instructions, best practices.

Drive client success and product feedback

Conduct regular business reviews to track adoption, resolve issues, and align on objectives.

Collect structured feedback and insights from clients to help drive product evolution.

Help clients extract full value from our products by advising on features and future use cases.

Contribute to internal knowledge base with lessons learned, repeatable processes, and technical patterns.
