THE OPPORTUNITY This is a founding role in TENEX's cloud security go-to-market motion. As Enterprise Sales Director, Cloud Security, you will own new business development for Wiz-focused CNAPP and cloud-native security solutions. You will work alongside TENEX's Google Cloud Security co-sell motion, engage directly with CISOs and cloud security leaders, and position TENEX as the MDR layer that makes Wiz deployments operationally complete. Wiz was acquired by Google (Alphabet) for $32B in 2026, cementing CNAPP as the centerpiece of enterprise cloud security. This role puts you at the intersection of that momentum, TENEX's AI-native MDR platform, and a co-sell motion built for scale. THE PROFILE - A seller who understands the Wiz platform deeply, including the Security Graph, CSPM, CWPP, CIEM, and code-to-cloud visibility, and can articulate how TENEX MDR extends and operationalizes that investment. - A professional with experience selling into multicloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP) where fragmented tooling and alert fatigue are everyday CISO pain points. - A relationship-driven closer who can navigate the DevSecOps buyer alongside the traditional security buyer, speaking fluently to both engineering and executive audiences. - A co-sell operator who knows how to work within a hyperscaler partner ecosystem, activating Google Cloud, Wiz channel partners, and the Wiz Integration Network (WIN) to drive pipeline. - A professional committed to replacing legacy SIEM and fragmented point tools with a unified, context-rich approach to cloud security. - Someone who leads with humility but carries the gravitas to challenge the status quo in a customer's cloud security program. - Someone who genuinely wants to give good the advantage. JOB RESPONSIBILITIES - Own and execute a cloud security sales strategy targeting enterprise accounts across your assigned territory, with a primary focus on Wiz-led CNAPP opportunities. - Develop and manage co-sell pipeline with Wiz field teams, Google Cloud Security reps, and channel partners in the Wiz Integration Network (WIN). - Engage CISOs, cloud security architects, DevSecOps leads, and procurement stakeholders to position TENEX as the MDR partner that operationalizes cloud-native security investments. - Lead discovery conversations that tie Wiz CNAPP visibility gaps to TENEX's AI-driven detection, investigation, and response capabilities. - Manage full enterprise sales cycles from prospecting through contract negotiation and close, with deal sizes typically $300K to $1M+ ARR. - Collaborate with TENEX Customer Engineering and SOC leadership to deliver compelling technical demonstrations and custom proof-of-value engag
