Account Executive

About the Role

AI agents are already inside the enterprise, acting with real permissions and real access. Most security stacks weren't built to see them, let alone govern them. That's the problem Zenity was built to solve, and CISOs are looking for answers now.

We're building out a new sales motion in the TOLA region, focused on the upper mid-market to low enterprise accounts (750M to 5B company revenue), where the need is real and deals move on a 3 to 6 month cycle. You will join a team focused on this fast growing segment aimed at winning new customer logos. This role requires a hunter mentality with emphasis on prospecting and pipeline generation strategies, collaboration with the partner ecosystem, and orchestrating resources to drive success.

**Candidate must be based in Dallas**

You'll report to Levi Sales, who values builders: people who embrace greenfield opportunity, take ownership of their territory, and execute with both creativity and discipline. Levi is looking for someone who can navigate complex enterprise buying groups, drive cross-functional sales with confidence, and use their network to create momentum in new accounts and open new doors.
