This is more than just a sales role—it’s about helping organizations proactively stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated cyber adversaries. By joining Blackpoint, you’ll have the opportunity to make a tangible impact on how businesses protect themselves against evolving threats. We foster a collaborative, forward-thinking environment where your expertise will be valued, and your contributions will help shape the future of cybersecurity.

• Work closely with Sales, Marketing, Engineering, and Support teams to bridge the technical gap between Blackpoint and its customers, ensuring seamless collaboration.

• Conduct tailored demos and proof-of-concept trials, effectively translating complex technical concepts into clear, digestible presentations for diverse audiences.

• Oversee and manage end-to-end evaluations, guiding prospects through hands-on experience to demonstrate Blackpoint's ability to address their specific security needs.

• Utilize your deep understanding of cybersecurity technologies and frameworks (NIST, CIS, CMMC, HIPAA, PCI-DSS) to support customers in meeting their security and compliance goals.

• Provide valuable insights to engineering teams, helping to refine and align our offerings with customer feedback.

What You’ll Bring:

• 4-6 years of experience in Sales Engineering, Pre-Sales, or other client-facing technical roles with a focus on cybersecurity solutions.

• Experience and knowledge in cybersecurity technologies such as endpoint security (EDR, Antivirus, IDS/IPS, Firewalls), networking (IP Addressing, DNS, DHCP), and Windows domain administration.

• Strong familiarity with security frameworks and compliance standards (NIST, CIS, CMMC, HIPAA, PCI-DSS).

• Experience with SaaS solutions and Managed Service Providers (MSP), particularly in the context of cybersecurity.

• Scripting and automation knowledge to support efficient sales and deployment processes.

• Excellent presentation, communication, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to engage both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Strong time management and organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple customer engagements independently.
