Required

3-5 years of cybersecurity, OT/ICS, or other related sales experience focusing on building channel relationships.

Understands how to navigate the channel ecosystem: Value Added Resellers, Distribution Partners, and MSSP models within the United States.

Self-driven and good expedition behavior: when you hit a new city to set up for a conference on a weekend, you'll be eager to be there and pick up any task that needs doing next.

Outgoing: you're the one who makes friends with the person next to you in line for coffee.

Curious: we're working on new technologies that solve age-old problems. You'll want to learn how it was done before, what we're doing that's different, and question why (and if!) the way we do it is better.

Ability to convey complex cybersecurity and engineering topics into plain English (and other local lingos).

Strong listening: most of sales is not pushing a product. It's listening to what problems a client says they have, and coming up with a tailored, articulate way to solve their personal problem.

Goal oriented: Highly driven with a 'Get it done' attitude.

Want to travel: you'll be getting on planes. A lot. Sometimes to small towns in middle America for a sales conference, sometimes to far-flung places.

Work well with small teams: as with all tech companies, there's a flat organization here. Be prepared to do different things.

Growth mindset: you'll be given tasks you don't think you can handle. And then you'll learn how to tackle them, and excel.
