Join Abnormal, a leading AI security company, as an AI Security Sales Executive.

You will work closely with Account Executives, engage in technical discussions, and shape the product and playbook. This position offers a competitive salary, flexible PTO, healthcare benefits, and more.

Own AI Security in your region, carrying the AI Security quota and running the sales cycle from first conversation through close.

Drive expansion across the customer base by leading upsell campaigns into existing customers and joining land motions where AI Security belongs in the conversation.

Build a targeted, strategic outbound motion to open net new logos in the largest enterprises, partnering with the core Account Executive where a relationship exists.

Strong cross-functional instincts. You will partner closely with Account Executives, Sales Engineering, and product leadership, and you will work autonomously between those touchpoints
