About the Company

Our partner is an early-stage, well-funded startup building security infrastructure for the AI era, helping enterprises adopt MCP and AI tooling without leaking sensitive data. Backed by top-tier investors and growing quickly with a tight, high-caliber team, they have real enterprise pipeline and a product that solves a genuinely hard, technical problem. This is a founding sales seat with significant ownership and upside.

The Opportunity

You will own enterprise deals end to end, hunting new logos, multi-threading across technical and executive stakeholders, and closing complex, high-value contracts. This is not an order‑taking role. You will be selling a technically sophisticated product to engineering‑minded buyers, working directly with the founders, and helping shape the early go‑to‑market motion.

The right person is a hunter who has graduated beyond the basics, sold technical products at a high level, and wants to be early at a company poised to define a new category.

Responsibilities

• Source, run, and close enterprise sales cycles for a technically complex product
• Multi-thread deals across engineering, security, and executive stakeholders
• Communicate credibly with technical buyers and engineers
• Partner closely with the founders on strategy, messaging, and pipeline
• Travel with the team to meet customers as needed
• Help build the foundation of the sales org as one of the first AEs

Requirements

• Strong track record of closing technical or infrastructure software at a high level, including consistent quota attainment and top-rep recognition
• Enterprise sales experience with proven ability to multi‑thread complex deals
• Genuine technical aptitude - comfortable understanding AI and infrastructure concepts and conversing with engineers (writing production code not required)
• Hunter mentality, intellectually curious, and motivated by building something meaningful over short-term cash
• Hands‑on user of AI tools in your own workflow
• Bonus: experience transitioning from a sales engineering background into a closing role
