The SaaS and AI Security field is complex and challenging. Therefore, we're looking for super-talented people, who are not afraid of technical challenges and breaking down barriers to achieve good solutions.

- Data Hygiene: Maintain meticulous records of activity and lead data within Salesforce and our sales engagement platforms
- Market Feedback: Act as the "eyes and ears" of the market, relaying objections and competitive intel back to Product and Marketing

- Proven ability to break into enterprise accounts using a strategic, multi-threaded approach

- Bonus - Familiarity with MEDDIC, ICEDD, BANT, RACT, or other qualification processes within the environment
