Description

Director of Enterprise Sales (Cyber Threat Intelligence Focus) - United States of America

What do we do here at PolySwarm?

PolySwarm is not just another threat intel provider — we’re the independent, high-performance alternative to VirusTotal that the cybersecurity industry has been waiting for. With VirusTotal now rolled into Google Threat Intelligence and increasingly tied to the Google Cloud ecosystem, security teams are reevaluating their options. That’s where we come in. PolySwarm is a U.S.-based malware intelligence marketplace built for scale, privacy, and precision. We bring together a global network of antivirus engines, threat researchers, and analyst-driven tools to deliver deep file and URL analysis — at a fraction of the cost of traditional sandbox vendors. From automated private analysis to scalable hunting with YARA, our customers rely on PolySwarm for the flexibility, depth, and speed they need to stay ahead of emerging threats. Our value is resonating. Organizations tired of expensive bundles and limited control are making the switch — and we’re just getting started. For more information, visit www.polyswarm.io and docs.polyswarm.io.

What is the job?

We’re looking for a driven, strategic Enterprise Sales Director to capture this moment and help us scale. In this role, you’ll be responsible for landing and expanding key accounts by targeting cybersecurity teams — from SOCs and threat intel to incident response — who are actively looking for alternatives to the legacy players. This isn’t a “maintain the patch” kind of job. You’ll be hunting for high-value prospects, navigating complex buying cycles, and driving urgency with a clear, timely message: PolySwarm is built for modern threat teams — and priced for impact. You can be based anywhere in the U.S. and will primarily work remotely, using video and digital channels to drive the sales process. Occasional travel for customer meetings or key industry events is expected. If you thrive in competitive environments, know how to position a disruptive product, and are ready to help security teams rethink what’s possible — we want to hear from you.

• Leverage an existing network of CTI/SOC, IR, and Security Engineering leaders at Fortune‑1000 and MSSP/OEM accounts to open first‑meeting doors within 30 days

• A comprehensive benefits package including:
