## Description (the employer's text)

### Why Mend.io

We are redefining how modern organizations secure software from open source and custom code to AI-generated components. As the creators of the first AI Native AppSec Platform, we help global enterprises stay safe, fast, and compliant in an era of AI-driven development. Our platform combines intelligent automation, deep risk visibility, and developer-first experiences, shaping the future of application security.

We are also committed to building a collaborative, empowering workplace. If you are excited about this role but do not meet every requirement, we encourage you to apply. Your perspective could be exactly what we need!

### About Mend AI

AI is fundamentally changing how software is created , accelerating development velocity while introducing an entirely new security problem set.

Organizations are rapidly adopting AI-powered development workflows, autonomous coding tools, and internal AI applications faster than security teams can govern them. The result is a growing gap between innovation and control: insecure AI-generated code, unmanaged AI usage, data exposure risks, compliance concerns, and a rapidly expanding attack surface across the software development lifecycle.

Mend AI helps organizations secure AI-driven software development and adopt AI safely at enterprise scale.

This is a market being defined in real time. The companies that win it will combine technical credibility, urgency, and execution , this role sits directly at the center of that opportunity.

### About the Role

This is a true ground-floor role for a high-performing seller who wants to help build a category, not just carry a quota.

Mend AI is your product, your pitch, and your entry point into every account.

You'll own the entire sales motion from first touch to close - building pipeline through outbound prospecting, events, partnerships, and inbound opportunities, while working closely with Sales Engineering, Product, and Customer Success to win strategic accounts. This is a dedicated hunting role focused on net-new logos - expansion within existing customers is owned by our broader sales organization today, which keeps you free to do what you do best.

This is a global role with responsibility across both North America and EMEA markets. The ideal candidate is comfortable operating across regions, engaging with international customers, and managing opportunities in a global sales environment.

This role is fundamentally for a builder, someone who creates pipeline, drives urgency, and thrives in ambiguity. You'll be expected to operate with high autonomy, help refine the go-to-market motion through customer feedback, and become a trusted advisor to engineering and security leaders navigating AI adoption.

There's already strong momentum behind the business: an established security platform, deep technical leadership, an active marketing engine, and a rapidly emerging market need.

This is a high-impact role for a seller who wants to help build a category, not just carry a quota.

### What You'll Do

Own the pipeline: Build and grow a portfolio of net-new mid-market and enterprise accounts through outbound prospecting, inbound conversion, events, conferences, and partner channels - treating inbound as one channel among many while maintaining an outbound-first, self-generated pipeline discipline

Run the full cycle: Own every stage of the deal process - outreach, discovery, technical validation, business case development, negotiation, and close

Educate the market: Run consultative discovery conversations around AI risk, AI-generated code, governance, compliance, and secure AI adoption

Shape the product and GTM motion: Bring field insights directly back to Product, Marketing, and Leadership to help refine messaging, roadmap, and go-to-market strategy

Partner cross-functionally: Work closely with Sales Engineering, Customer Success, Product, and Leadership to move strategic opportunities forward

Represent Mend AI externally: Be a visible presence at security conferences, executive meetings, webinars, customer roundtables, and across the partner ecosystem
