Enterprise Sales Executive - Public Sector
About Us
We’re a fast-moving startup securing mission-critical software powering over $100B of defense and national security infrastructure and assets—from aircraft carriers to logistics systems. Our platform illuminates hidden risks in software and AI supply chains—helping our customers detect and manage risk in order to operate with confidence. From national security to public health, the stakes are high—and we’re building the team that can rise to meet them.
The Role
We're looking for a tenacious, intellectually curious, and mission-driven Sales Executive to help lead our public sector growth. You’ll be on the ground building pipeline, shaping our go-to-market, and driving impact across defense, intelligence, and civilian agencies.This role is perfect for someone who doesn’t wait for leads or instruction—someone who sees ambiguity as opportunity, understands the inner workings of the federal market, and knows how to navigate bureaucracy without losing momentum. You're a student of the game, constantly refining your approach, and equally comfortable in a tactical BD sprint or a strategic conversation with a flag officer or SES.
