📋 Description

• Own the full new‑business sales cycle—from prospecting and qualification to technical evaluation, negotiation, and close. • Build and execute territory plans targeting high‑value enterprise prospects across industries. • Identify and develop greenfield opportunities through outbound prospecting, partner collaboration, and market intelligence. • Drive competitive takeouts and position Black Duck as the preferred AppSec platform. • Consistently achieve new‑logo ARR targets and pipeline creation goals. • Build multi‑threaded relationships with CISOs, CTOs, AppSec leaders, DevOps executives, and procurement stakeholders. • Lead executive‑level conversations around open‑source governance, SBOM strategy, and secure SDLC modernization. • Deliver compelling business cases that quantify risk reduction, compliance alignment, and developer productivity gains. • Run disciplined, high‑velocity sales cycles with strong qualification, forecasting accuracy, and CRM hygiene. • Partner with Sales Engineering to guide prospects through technical validation, PoCs, and integration discussions. • Navigate complex procurement processes, legal reviews, and multi‑stakeholder decision cycles. • Collaborate with Marketing and SDR teams to accelerate pipeline generation and campaign execution. • Represent Black Duck at industry events, conferences, and customer briefings. • Provide market feedback to Product and Marketing to influence roadmap and positioning. • Stay current on AppSec trends, regulatory pressures, and emerging software supply chain risks.

🎯 Requirements

• Enterprise new‑business sales experience in cybersecurity, DevSecOps, developer tooling, or related technical domains. • Proven track record of hunting and closing large, complex enterprise deals with multi‑million‑dollar ARR impact. • Strong understanding of Application Security, SCA, SBOM, and modern software supply chain challenges. • Ability to engage both technical and executive audiences with credibility and confidence. • Exceptional prospecting, negotiation, and strategic selling skills. • Experience selling SCA or AppSec platforms (e.g., Black Duck‑style solutions, Snyk, Veracode, Checkmarx, GitHub Advanced Security). • Familiarity with CI/CD ecosystems (GitHub, GitLab, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, Bitbucket). • Background selling into Fortune 500 or global enterprise organizations.
