Job Description

Role: Cybersecurity Sales Leader - AI/LLM Enterprise Sales Specialist

Location: PAN India (Remote)

Experience: 10+ Years of Enterprise & Cybersecurity Sales experience along with AI/LLM and product company experience

Budget Range: 30 to 40 LPA + equity and commission


What we are: Kapalins is an AI-native cybersecurity - and we're looking for someone who can both speak the language of security and open doors at the enterprise level.

This isn't a checkbox role. We need a rare hybrid - someone who understands AI/LLM threat landscapes, has lived inside a product company, and knows what it takes to sell in a startup environment where every conversation counts.


What you'll own:

  • Drive enterprise sales across BFSI, Tech, and critical infrastructure verticals
  • Act as the external face of Kapalins' security expertise - Field CISO in every room you walk into
  • Build and manage C-suite relationships (CISOs, CTOs, CIOs)
  • Own the full sales cycle - from first conversation to signed contract
  • Shape GTM strategy alongside the founding team


What we're looking for:

Non-Negotiable Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience in cybersecurity, enterprise technology sales, or a demonstrable combination of both
  • AI/LLM security knowledge - understanding of prompt injection, model poisoning, data leakage from LLMs, adversarial ML, and emerging AI threat vectors - not just traditional cybersecurity frameworks
  • Product company experience - you have sold a product, not just services; you understand product-led sales motions
  • Startup DNA - you have built pipelines from zero, operated in resource-constrained environments, and delivered results without a large supporting infrastructure
  • Enterprise CXO network in India - existing relationships with CISOs, CTOs, and CIOs across enterprise accounts
  • Immediate availability - or ability to join within 2-4 weeks
  • Track record of closing enterprise deals in the 10L- 1Cr+ range


What Kapalins offers:

  • Base salary along with Equity + performance-linked commission - you grow as we grow
  • A seat at the table, not just a quota to chase
  • Work at the cutting edge of AI + security - a space that's moving fast and mattering more every day


If you've spent years building relationships, closing enterprise deals, and thinking seriously about where AI is breaking security models - we want to talk.
