Thousands of organizations use our platform to strengthen security, automate compliance, and earn trust. We’re backed by leading investors including Kleiner Perkins, Accomplice, Gradient Ventures, BoxGroup, and Village Global.\nSecureframe’s Defense business is experiencing record growth. We recently launched Secureframe Defense, an AI-powered platform that helps Defense Industrial Base organizations move from secure-environment deployment through documentation, continuous monitoring, and assessment readiness. Our Defense product line combines modern software, secure infrastructure, Microsoft and cloud ecosystems, expert guidance, and services to solve a high-stakes problem for organizations protecting national defense information.\nAbout the role\nWe’re hiring an Enterprise Account Executive to become one of the founding enterprise sellers for our Defense product line. You’ll help define how Secureframe wins complex, high-value opportunities across the Defense Industrial Base and adjacent public-sector markets-and help turn an emerging product category into a durable enterprise business.\nYou’ll own a target sales motion of approximately 90 days, with typical contract values ranging from $50K to $500K. These opportunities can span complex IT environments, multiple business units, security and compliance programs, Microsoft licensing, cloud and on-premises infrastructure, secure enclaves, implementation services, and executive-level transformation priorities.\nThis is a builder role for a strategic seller. You’ll create account plans, develop champions, multi-thread technical and executive stakeholders, coordinate experts, shape business cases, navigate procurement, and close. Just as importantly, you’ll bring the voice of the market back to Product and GTM leaders as we build the future of Secureframe’s Defense business.\nWhat you’ll do\nOwn the full enterprise sales cycle from targeted prospecting and executive discovery through solution design, validation, commercial negotiation, procurement, close, and implementation handoff.\n\nBuild and execute account strategies for complex Defense Industrial Base, government-contractor, and public-sector opportunities.\n\nManage a target 90-day sales cycle while preserving the rigor required for $50K-$500K contracts and multi-stakeholder decisions.\n\nLead discovery across business units, IT, security, compliance, finance, legal, procurement, operations, and executive leadership.\n\nTranslate complex environments-including Microsoft 365 GCC High, Azure and Azure Government, Azure Virtual Desktop, secure enclaves, endpoint management, hybrid cloud, on-premises systems, and services dependencies-into a clear commercial plan.\n\nPosition Secureframe Defense across secure infrastructure, AI-guided CMMC workflows, automated documentation, continuous monitoring, readiness insights, and expert-supported delivery.\n\nCoordinate Sales Engineering, federal and compliance experts, partners, Product, Customer Success, and implementation resources to create credible solutions and phased deployment plans.\n\nDevelop executive-level business cases tied to security outcomes, contract eligibility, implementation speed, total cost, operational capacity, and risk reduction.\n\nCreate pipeline through account-based outbound, industry relationships, partner ecosystems, referrals, events, and disciplined territory planning.\n\nMaintain accurate opportunity strategy, mutual action plans, next steps, pipeline, and forecasts in Salesforce.\n\nHelp establish the enterprise Defense playbook, including qualification, messaging, partner motions, proof points, packaging feedback, and competitive intelligence.\n\nWhat we’re looking for\n5-10+ years of quota-carrying B2B sales experience, including success closing complex mid-market or enterprise opportunities; equivalent demonstrated experience will be considered.\n\nA track record of selling solutions that combine technology, services, implementation, or infrastructure-not just a single-feature software product.\n\nExperience navigating $50K-$500K deals, multiple decision-makers, technical validation, security review, legal, procurement, and executive approval.\n\nStrong account planning, discovery, multithreading, champion development, business-case creation, negotiation, and closing skills.\n\nCredibility with CIOs, CISOs, CTOs, IT leaders, security and compliance teams, finance, operations, and executive buyers.\n\nThe ability to understand complex customer environments and lead the commercial conversation without needing to be the implementation architect.\n\nA builder’s mindset: comfortable creating repeatable process, operating with ambiguity, and influencing product and go-to-market direction.\n\nExcellent pipeline discipline and forecasting judgment; Salesforce experience is helpful.\n\nGreat to have\nExperience selling hardware, cloud, cybersecurity, managed services, professional services, IT outsourcing, or integrated solutions into defense, government, or highly regulated industries.\n\nExperience at a national solution provider, systems integrator, VAR, MSP, MSSP, cloud partner, or IT-services firm. Backgrounds similar to enterprise sellers from companies such as CDW or SHI are especially relevant.\n\nFluency in the Microsoft ecosystem, including Microsoft 365 GCC High licensing, Azure, Azure Government, Entra ID, Intune, Azure Virtual Desktop, secure enclaves, and partner or marketplace motions.\n\nKnowledge of CMMC, NIST 800-171, DFARS, FedRAMP, CUI environments, or the Defense Industrial Base.\n\nExperience selling GRC or security-compliance platforms and services.\n\nAn existing network across defense contractors, public-sector organizations, primes, subcontractors, assessors, consultants, or technology partners.\n\nWhy this opportunity\nYou’ll join at an inflection point: record growth in Secureframe’s Defense business, the launch of an AI-powered end-to-end platform, and a large market searching for a faster, more scalable path to stronger cybersecurity and CMMC readiness. As one of the first enterprise sellers dedicated to Defense, you’ll have unusual influence over the customers we pursue, the sales motion we build, the product feedback we prioritize, and the team that follows.\nCompensation\nThe expected on-target earnings range for this role is $220,000-$350,000 USD, consisting of base salary and variable compensation. Actual compensation will depend on experience, skills, location, role scope, and level. Additional compensation and benefits may include equity and company-sponsored benefits, subject to the terms of the applicable plans.\nBenefits\nMedical, dental, and vision coverage for you and your dependents.\n\nFlexible paid time off.\n\n401(k).\n\nPaid family leave.\n\nThe opportunity to shape a strategic product line and enterprise business from an early stage.\n\nHow we work\nSecureframe values in-person collaboration. Under our current policy, employees who live within a defined radius of a Secureframe office are expected to work from the office approximately 30% of the time as an essential function of the role.\nSecureframe is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to building an environment where every team member can belong, contribute, and do their best work.
