Portnox is fast-growing VC-backed cybersecurity company market selling a must-have product. Portnox offers cloud-native zero trust access control and cybersecurity essentials that enable agile, resource-constrained IT teams to proactively address today’s most pressing security challenges. By eliminating the need for any on-premises footprint common among traditional information security systems, Portnox allows companies—no matter their size, geo-distribution, or networking architecture—to deploy, scale, enforce and maintain these critical zero trust security policies with unprecedented ease.

We are searching for a US-based Commercial Account Executive. The Commercial Account Executive (CAE) is responsible for acquiring new customers by closing deals primarily driven by inbound leads from multiple sources. The CAE is also expected to generate pipeline from outbound activities. This role will be responsible for owning the sales process from opportunity generation to post-sale handoff to the support and customer success teams. You will be responsible for identifying and establishing relationships with key individuals in target organizations and helping them understand the value that Portnox can bring to their business.

While this role is primarily remote, we do get together every so often and would prefer candidates in North Carolina or Texas.
