The Role

Most security sales roles have you pitching fear. This one has you proving it: an AI-native platform that emulates real attacks inside a customer’s own environment - the strongest demo in cybersecurity, because the results are the customer’s own.

You’ll run your PNW territory like a business: full cycle, first touch to close, pipeline and doors you open yourself. You’ll shape how we sell, not just run the play - and what you close moves the company’s trajectory, not just your number.

What You’ll Do

· Own the full sales cycle end to end - prospecting, discovery, demos, POCs with our Sales Engineers, negotiation, close - across enterprise accounts in the PNW.

· Self-source your pipeline: open your own doors and create demand - don’t wait for it.

· Sell to CISOs and security leaders, anchoring every conversation to their business risk, not our feature list.

· Run a modern, AI-assisted sales motion: Salesforce, Gong, Outreach/Apollo, Sales Navigator, and AI tools to research and personalize at scale.

· Forecast honestly and keep your pipeline clean - no deal goes dark without a clear next step.

· Shape the motion, not just run it - what you hear from buyers feeds Product, Marketing, and the playbook.

Requirements

What You Bring

· 5+ years of enterprise B2B sales - cybersecurity or security buyers strongly preferred.

· Proven quota attainment on full-cycle enterprise deals, first touch to close.

· A self-sourced pipeline track record: you open your own doors and build demand.

· Credible CISO-level selling - risk and outcomes, not decks and scripts.

· Proficient with the AI-assisted sales stack: Salesforce, Gong, Outreach/Apollo, Sales Navigator, AI tools.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
