About The Role & Hiring Manager I joined Zenity because I believe the Agentic future will only be successful if enterprises can deploy AI safely, responsibly, and universally across their organizations. The future ubiquity of Agent AI will create immense business value for the enterprise. Because of the incredible business value and the threat of security around Agentic AI, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to join an organization that will define and lead the Agentic AI Security frontier.

As a sales leader, I value grit, curiosity, and business acumen. I believe in a strong coaching culture where teams operate with high energy, standards, and accountability. AE's on my team will be responsible for the business in their territory and will have opportunities to grow themselves professionally by working in complex, multi-faceted opportunities in the largest organizations in the world. AE's will own a number, but they will also help shape the Agentic AI landscape in the most recognizable brands.

This role plays a critical part in our next phase of growth. You’ll own a Fortune 1000–focused territory, building strategic relationships with CISOs and senior security leaders, and leading complex enterprise sales cycles that shape how large organizations secure AI agents.
