Who are we?

What if cybersecurity could think like a hacker?

At Hadrian, that's exactly what we're building: the future of offensive cybersecurity, powered by autonomous AI agents that think like hackers. Founded in Amsterdam in 2021, we're on a mission to change the way organisations defend themselves by helping them find and fix security weaknesses before attackers can exploit them.

Our platform brings together two products: Atlas, which continuously maps an organisation's external attack surface and validates which exposures are genuinely exploitable, and Nova, which uses AI agents to perform in-depth penetration testing on demand. Together, they give security teams the visibility and proof they need to focus on what really matters and stay ahead of emerging threats.

Backed by $65M in total funding, including our recent $40M Series B led by Forgepoint Capital International and SmartFin, we're investing in the next generation of autonomous offensive security and expanding our impact across global markets. With a team spanning 25+ countries and offices in Amsterdam, London, and New York, we're helping organisations rethink what's possible in cybersecurity.

Join us and help shape the future of offensive security.

Your Role:

As a Senior Account Executive, you’ll be on the front lines of Hadrian’s expansion across the BENELUX region, owning one of our most strategic growth markets. This is a high-impact, high-ownership role where you’re not just closing deals but also actively building the playbook!

We’re looking for someone who knows how to win. Your track record selling cybersecurity solutions in the Dutch speaking BENELUX territories, will set the foundation. However, your drive, hustle, and ability to create opportunities from scratch will define your success.

You’ll get to own the entire sales cycle end-to-end: prospecting, outbound, pipeline building, negotiating, and closing. This is your territory to conquer, while also benefiting from the guidance of our Regional Sales team.

• Sales Execution: Demonstrate a deep understanding of Hadrian's solutions and their value proposition. Engage with C-level executives, providing industry insights and positioning our solutions effectively.
• Account Management: Foster and maintain relationships with key business units and stakeholders. Adopt a consultative approach, listening to customer needs and adjusting strategies accordingly.
