About this role
Description
Zafran is on a mission to stop the exploitation of vulnerabilities everywhere. We’re rethinking how security teams prioritize risk, and we’re building something no one else has: a new operating model that defuses the threats that matter most—fast.
The Director of Sales, Enterprise will be responsible for driving hyper-growth customer acquisition and bookings through effective leadership of the Enterprise segment sales organization. This leader will play a crucial role in talent acquisition, team development, and strategic partnership management while ensuring consistent pipeline generation and revenue achievement across our Enterprise Sales segment.
About Zafran
Our Mission: To stop the exploitation of vulnerabilities, everywhere.
What makes us different: In a world where AI-enabled attackers weaponize vulnerabilities within minutes, the old scan-and-patch-everything model no longer holds. Zafran's Exposure Graph continuously maps every vulnerability across your hybrid environment, chains exploitability through real attack paths and proves 90% of "critical" vulnerabilities can't actually reach you. It then neutralizes the real 10% using your compensating controls and safely remediates only where it matters.
Who’s behind us: Zafran is backed by Menlo Ventures, Sequoia Capital, Cyberstarts, and a deep belief that cybersecurity should move as fast as attackers do. We’re one of the fastest-growing companies in the industry, scaling to meet demand from the world’s most advanced, security-obsessed organizations.
We’re serious about our mission- so expect work that matters, teammates who challenge and inspire you, and plenty of fun along the way!
