- Develop multi-threaded relationships across cyber threat intelligence, security operations, IT, program, procurement, and executive stakeholders.
- Apply MEDDPICC and value-based selling while maintaining accurate pipeline, qualification, next steps, and forecasts in Salesforce and Clari.
Requirements
- 8+ years of direct, quota-carrying sales experience with US federal agencies, with a track record of creating pipeline, growing territories, and meeting or exceeding quota.
- Prior experience selling into US Department of the Treasury, Federal Reserve, and Capitol Hill (Senate, House of Representatives, etc).
- Existing relationships across relevant federal agencies, components, procurement stakeholders, and partner ecosystems.
- Experience selling directly for a cybersecurity, data, SaaS, or adjacent technology provider.
- Strong knowledge of federal buying processes, fiscal cycles, procurement, contract vehicles, and authorization requirements.
- Experience leading complex, multi-stakeholder sales and translating technical capabilities, integrations, APIs, and intelligence data into mission and operational value.
- Strong operational discipline in Salesforce and Clari, or a comparable forecasting platform, within a highly data-driven sales environment.
- A builder mentality, commercial urgency, resilience, transparency, and comfort operating through change.
