Role Summary:

The Verticalized Account Executive drives net new logo acquisition in a specific enterprise vertical and target ICP by identifying opportunities through repeatable signals and playbooks, not volume alone, and by co-selling fluently with alliance, service, and channel partners. This role combines enterprise sales discipline with deep vertical domain expertise: you will build relationships with C-level security, infrastructure, and business stakeholders, navigate complex procurement environments, and qualify pipeline in and out with equal discipline to protect velocity. You will be the primary commercial owner of net new customers in your vertical, operating with AI-native tools as a daily part of how you research, prioritize, and execute. You are not only selling security enhanced by AI, but selling with AI. You will employ MEDDPICC methodology to manage your pipeline, forecasts, and deals.
