About Zafran:

Our Mission:

To stop the exploitation of vulnerabilities, everywhere.

What makes us different:

In a world where AI-enabled attackers weaponize vulnerabilities within minutes, the old scan-and-patch-everything model no longer holds. Zafran's Exposure Graph continuously maps every vulnerability across your hybrid environment, chains exploitability through real attack paths and proves 90% of "critical" vulnerabilities can't actually reach you. It then neutralizes the real 10% using your compensating controls and safely remediates only where it matters.

Who’s behind us

Zafran is backed by Menlo Ventures, Sequoia Capital, Cyberstarts, and a deep belief that cybersecurity should move as fast as attackers do. We’re one of the fastest-growing companies in the industry, scaling to meet demand from the world’s most advanced, security-obsessed organizations.

We’re serious about our mission- so expect work that matters, teammates who challenge and inspire you, and plenty of fun along the way!

What you will do:

• Partner Relationship Management:

  • Build and nurture long-term relationships with channel partners to drive mutual success in delivering Zafran’s CTEM platform.
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for assigned partners in EMEA addressing their needs, challenges, and growth opportunities.

• Revenue Growth:

  • Monitor and report on partner performance metrics, including indirect revenues, pipeline generation, and deal registrations, using Zafran’s CRM tools.
  • Partner with resellers and distributors to create demand and close high-impact deals, leveraging Zafran’s ability to mitigate thousands of vulnerabilities with a single recommendation.

• Partner Enablement and Support:

  • Provide comprehensive training, certifications, and resources to enable partners to effectively sell and support Zafran’s solution set.
  • Equip partners with the latest product knowledge, sales tools, and marketing collateral tailored to the CTEM market.
  • Facilitate access to Zafran’s technical support, pre-sales engineering, and customer success teams to ensure partner and customer success.

• Program Development and Execution:

  • Implement and manage Zafran’s channel programs, including incentives, deal registration, and market development funds (MDF), to motivate partner performance.
