You will collaborate closely with Solutions Engineering, Product Marketing, and Customer Success teams to ensure a seamless customer experience.

• Conduct technical discovery conversations to understand prospect security postures, infrastructure, and risk models.
• Partner with Solutions Engineers to deliver tailored demos and technical validations.
• Convert inbound interest and drive outbound pipeline through targeted outreach and campaigns.
• Collaborate with Product Marketing to identify common objections and align sales materials with customer needs.
• Maintain up-to-date knowledge of security trends, on-chain risks, and the evolving Web3 landscape.

Requirements

• 2+ years of quota-carrying experience in B2B SaaS and/or blockchain infrastructure sales.
• Proven track record of managing 30-60 day sales cycles and closing mid-market deals.
• Strong communication and consultative selling skills, effective with both technical and business audiences.
• In-depth knowledge of Web3, Bridges, and DeFi protocol mechanics.
• Curiosity about blockchain security, smart contract risks, and crypto infrastructure. While expertise isn't required, a strong desire to learn quickly is essential.
• Ability to operate autonomously in a fast-paced, high-context environment.
• Self-starter mindset with a bias for action and results.
