What you will do

- Prospect on real triggers rather than cadence alone: funding rounds, security incidents, protocol and governance events, new chain and product launches.
- Multi-thread into accounts across security, engineering, risk, compliance, treasury, and operations, and run first calls to a real discovery standard. The deliverable is a qualified opportunity, not a calendar slot.
- Work the biggest deals in your verticals as an analyst of record, building account dossiers, business cases, ROI framing, mutual action plans, and competitive comparisons.
- Join strategic calls alongside your senior AE and Sales Engineer, and learn how institutional and enterprise deals are actually won.

- Demonstrated self-sourced pipeline. Name specific opportunities you originated and explain how you got in.
- Real curiosity about crypto and blockchain. You can hold a credible conversation about protocols, bridges, custody, DeFi mechanics, and security risk, or you have a clear track record of teaching yourself a technical domain fast.
- Written communication strong enough that a cold email to an executive actually lands.
