- Take full ownership of your pipeline: Prospect directly into target accounts and partner with our network, investors, and advisors to open doors, building and maintaining a focused pipeline of high-quality conversations
- Be the voice of the market internally:Bring concrete, structured feedback on buyers, objections, integrations, and workflows back into product and engineering, helping shape messaging, narrative, and content

- You've sold into very early or ambiguous markets: You've been an early AE / first GTM hire at a seed/Series A infrastructure or security company and you're comfortable selling when the category name isn't obvious
- You have real enterprise security or infra experience: You've sold products in endpoint security, detection & response, identity, cloud security, devtools, or low-level infra, and are comfortable with CISOs and technical architects
- You have a bias toward action and ownership: You're happy to prospect, run your own follow-ups, build your own deck, write the follow-up memo, and help tune the demo, without a tight process to be effective (though you know how to build those later)
- You care about the mission: You believe that AI and agents on endpoints are going to change how enterprises operate

- One example of a time you helped shape the GTM motion
