Channel Sales Manager US
About The Position
We’re making security suck less for developers. Security tools haven’t kept up with how software is built today. They interrupt teams, slow releases, and turn security into a bottleneck instead of a capability. We built Aikido to change that. Aikido builds developer-first security products that reduce real risk without getting in the way of shipping software. We focus on what actually matters and automate the rest. We’re taking on legacy security tools teams have been stuck with, and we’re winning. If you want to help us take market share and build products developers actually enjoy using, you’re in the right place. Founded in 2022 by third-time founders, Aikido has $85M in the bank, a long runway ahead, and unicorn status. We’re building toward self-securing software. Join an all-star team. Take real ownership. Push boundaries. Build things that matter. As our first Channel Sales Manager on the US East Coast, you will run sales with the channel ecosystem across Resellers and MSPs in the US, while collaborating with our US sales & success team. This is a high-impact, builder role with the opportunity to grow into expanded responsibilities as the US channel team scales. If leadership emerges, there will be a clear path for advancement. Your mission: drive revenue growth for both Aikido and its partners, creating lasting, win–win relationships.
