LockThreat•San Francisco, CA

About The Position

LockThreat is the AI-native control plane for enterprise GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance). Recognized by Gartner as a Disruptor in Enterprise GRC, we help complex, regulated organizations move from periodic audits and fragmented compliance tools to continuous, real-time governance across 200+ regulatory frameworks. We're venture-backed, headquartered in the Atlanta metro area, and scaling fast with enterprise customers in production across the US and Middle East, including Fortune 500 organizations and government entities. We are building our enterprise sales team to drive new logo acquisition. This is a greenfield territory role selling six- and seven-figure platform deals ($100K+ ACV) to senior security, risk, and compliance leaders at organizations with 5,000 to 10,000+ employees. This is a pure hunting role. You will own the full sales cycle from prospecting through close. If your strength is managing existing accounts or expanding installed base, this isn't the right fit.

Requirements

10+ years of enterprise software sales experience with consistent, verifiable quota attainment
Track record carrying $1.5M+ annual quotas and closing six-figure+ deals into large enterprise accounts
Proven new logo hunter. The majority of your bookings have come from net-new business, not expansion, renewals, or account management.
Fluency in structured sales frameworks such as MEDDIC/MEDDPICC, Challenger, Command of the Message, Sandler, Force Management, or equivalent
Executive presence. Credible and effective in conversations with CISOs, CROs, CIOs, and board-level stakeholders.
Startup-ready. You operate with high autonomy, build your own infrastructure when needed, and don't wait for someone to hand you a playbook.
Quantifiable results on your resume: quota attainment, deal sizes, logos won, rep rankings
