Job Description
• Own the full sales cycle from prospecting to close for new enterprise accounts in your assigned territory.
• Build and execute strategic outbound campaigns targeting CISOs, VPs of Infrastructure, DevSecOps leaders, and platform engineering teams.
• Develop and manage a high-quality pipeline through outbound prospecting, partner channels, and inbound leads—with a bias toward self-sourced opportunities.
• Articulate RapidFort’s technical value proposition fluently across container security, Kubernetes hardening, SBOM management, and software supply chain risk reduction.
• Run compelling demos, executive briefings, and proof-of-value engagements that create urgency and differentiate RapidFort from legacy scanning tools.
• Consistently forecast, meet, and exceed quarterly and annual quotas with disciplined pipeline management and CRM hygiene.
• Partner cross-functionally with Solutions Engineering, Product, and Customer Success to optimize the buyer journey and accelerate time-to-close.
• Stay sharp on the competitive landscape (Chainguard, Sysdig, Prisma Cloud, Snyk Container) and articulate clear differentiation.
• Provide market intelligence and customer feedback that shapes product roadmap and go-to-market strategy.
Job Requirements
- 5+ years of quota-carrying enterprise sales success in SaaS, Security, or DevOps markets with documented results (Top 10–20% performer).
- Deep familiarity with container technologies (Kubernetes, Docker, Helm, OCI registries), cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), and CI/CD toolchains (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins).
- Proven ability to prospect into and sell to technical buyers: CISOs, Directors of Security, Platform Engineering leads, and DevOps/SRE teams.
- Track record of new logo acquisition—you know how to find, qualify, and close net-new enterprise customers.
- Consultative selling DNA: you diagnose before you prescribe, map to business outcomes, and run multi-stakeholder deal cycles.
- Entrepreneurial mindset with exceptional work ethic and resourcefulness—you thrive in early-to-growth-stage startup environments where you build the playbook.
- Outstanding verbal and written communication; you can command a room with a CISO and whiteboard a technical architecture with an engineer.
