Summary Generated by Built In
At Secureframe, we are not just a company; we are at the forefront of revolutionizing cybersecurity compliance. Recognized as one of the industry's most innovative and trusted providers, Secureframe has consistently received accolades for our advanced technology solutions and commitment to excellence. With a robust portfolio of products that safeguard thousands of businesses worldwide, we have been featured in major publications such as Forbes’ next billion dollar startups, TechCrunch, and The Wall Street Journal for our transformative impact on the way companies achieve and maintain compliance standards.
As we continue to grow, our mission remains clear: to provide seamless, secure solutions that enable businesses to focus on what they do best. Joining Secureframe means becoming part of a team dedicated to professional excellence and continuous learning in an environment that values creativity and forward-thinking.
Secureframe is backed by top VCs including Kleiner Perkins, Accomplice, Gradient Ventures (Google’s AI Fund), BoxGroup, Village Global, and many more.
The Growth AE is an early-career closing role built for someone who has proven they can hunt and build pipeline, and is ready to own deals end-to-end for the first time. You will source and close new business across Secureframe's SMB segment with a strong focus on outbound prospecting into companies pursuing CMMC, FedRAMP, and SOC 2 compliance.
This is not a handed-to-you role. You will build your own pipeline, run your own deals, and be accountable for your own number. In return, you will get direct coaching from a hands-on manager, a clear path to a full AE seat, and a product with genuine product-market fit that sells itself once you get in front of the right people.
Secureframe highly values having employees working in-office to foster a collaborative work environment and company culture. For office-based employees (employees who live within a defined radius of a Secureframe office), Secureframe considers working in the office, approximately 30% of the time under current policy, to be an essential function of the employee's role.

Who we're looking for
- 1 to 3 years of experience in a BDR, SDR, or early AE role with a proven outbound track record

- You are selling a must-have product into a market with real urgency - companies need compliance to win customers and keep contracts
- Direct coaching and mentorship from a sales manager who built his career from this exact seat

- Competitive base and commission with accelerators for overperformance
- Remote with a strong New York presence for those who want in-person time
