Account Executive

Assail is seeking an Account Executive for their Enterprise Sales team. The role involves owning the full enterprise sales cycle for Assail's autonomous multi-agent offensive security platform, focusing on landing and expanding Fortune 1000 accounts across various regulated industries.

Responsibilities:

• Own the full sales cycle. Prospect, qualify, run discovery, scope POVs, negotiate, and close new-logo enterprise deals. Carry an annual quota and forecast accurately every week
• Build and manage pipeline. Generate qualified pipeline through a mix of outbound, account-based plays, ecosystem partners, events, and inbound. Maintain pipeline coverage of at least 3x quota
• Multi-thread enterprise accounts. Map account org charts, build relationships across security, engineering, procurement, and the C-suite, and run executive-level conversations with CISOs and CIOs
• Run rigorous discovery. Uncover the customer's application security program, current AppSec/DAST/pentest spend, compliance drivers (PCI, HIPAA, FedRAMP, SOC 2, DORA), and the business outcomes they need
• Lead POVs and technical evaluations. Partner with sales engineering to scope, run, and close proof-of-value engagements. Translate Ares' findings into business risk and ROI the buyer's executive team will fund
• Negotiate and close. Lead pricing, redlines, and procurement cycles. Partner with legal and finance to close clean, multi-year enterprise agreements
• Expand existing accounts. Drive land-and-expand motion across business units, subsidiaries, and adjacent application portfolios within named accounts
• Operate the CRM with discipline. Keep HubSpot pristine — stage hygiene, next steps, MEDDPICC fields, close dates, and accurate forecasting. The pipeline is the product
• Feed the company. Surface competitive intelligence, product gaps, pricing signal, and customer language back to marketing, product, and the CRO. AEs at this stage shape the company, not just hit a number
• Represent Assail externally. Attend industry events, customer dinners, analyst briefings, and partner meetings. Carry the brand the way it deserves to be carried
