Our mission is to secure the next generation of cloud infrastructure, helping businesses innovate without fear. We foster a dynamic, fast-paced, and collaborative environment, focused on excellence and customer success.

The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of the Indian enterprise IT and security landscape, a proven track record in selling complex cybersecurity or cloud-native technology solutions, and exceptional communication skills.

Key Responsibilities

Sales and Revenue Generation

  • Develop and execute a strategic sales plan to achieve and exceed quarterly and annual revenue targets within the assigned territory.
  • Manage the entire sales cycle, from prospecting and qualification to negotiation and closing significant enterprise deals.
  • Identify and target key decision-makers and influencers within target accounts, establishing strong relationships with C-level executives, security leaders, and cloud architects.
  • Conduct compelling product presentations and solution demonstrations tailored to specific customer needs and technical requirements, often in collaboration with Sales Engineering.

Market and Customer Expertise

  • Become a trusted advisor to customers, demonstrating a deep understanding of CNAPP, cloud security best practices (AWS, Azure, GCP), DevSecOps, and relevant industry regulations in India.
  • Maintain a strong pulse on the competitive landscape and emerging market trends in cloud-native security across the Indian market.
  • Effectively translate complex technical concepts into clear business value propositions for both technical and non-technical audiences.

Collaboration and Administration

  • Work closely with marketing, product, and sales engineering teams to ensure a coordinated and successful go-to-market strategy in India.
  • Accurately forecast sales opportunities and maintain comprehensive, up-to-date records of all sales activity in the CRM (e.g., Salesforce).
  • Attend industry conferences, seminars, and networking events to promote Upwind Security’s brand and generate leads.

Requirements

  • Experience: 8+ years of successful enterprise sales experience, with a minimum of 3 years focused on selling complex cybersecurity software, cloud infrastructure, or DevSecOps solutions to large enterprises in India.
  • Domain Knowledge: Strong working knowledge of cloud computing platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), serverless technologies, and modern application development lifecycles (CI/CD). Familiarity with CNAPP components (e.g., CSPM, KSPM, CIEM, Cloud Workload Protection) is highly desirable.
  • Language Proficiency: Excellent professional fluency in English (written and verbal) is essential. Proficiency in regional Indian languages is a strong advantage.
  • Cultural Acumen: Proven ability to navigate and succeed within the Indian business culture, including established professional networks in the relevant industry sectors.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
