🌍 We’re taking on the crusty global cyber market, the "no-BS" security platform for devs.
In the past, only large enterprises needed to worry about security. Today, cybersecurity has become the top concern of 75% of all CEOs, from startups to enterprises.
This means more work for developers, who need to become security experts and ensure their platforms are secure. But it’s hard. The market is riddled with overcomplicated, expensive tools that aren’t fit for developers. So, we founded Aikido.
We are the no-bullsh*t security platform that developers actually like to use. One central platform that shows devs what matters and how to fix it, so they can get back to building.
Why work with us? Founded in 2022 by third-time serial founders, with $25M funding in the bank, we're dead set on getting security done for devs. This is a chance to join an all-star team early, take ownership, and push boundaries.
We’re looking for an entrepreneurial channel development person, who will develop and run the (co)-sales motion to drive the Aikido channel partner program and own indirect revenue. This role focuses on developing, and driving co-sell motions, accelerating partner pipelines, and supporting closing partner-sourced deals. You will be working with all levels of partner organizations and have a thorough understanding of Aikido’s solution and the business value to partners and customers.
Responsibilities
Manage the partner-sourced deal pipeline and revenue execution with qualified partners.
Frequently engage, pipeline reviews, co-sell, and close deals alongside partners' sales teams.
Develop & execute joint-annual business plans, and conduct account planning, based on set targets.
