About Tracebit

Most breaches aren't detected for months. Tracebit detects them in seconds. Deploy canaries across your environment that trigger high-fidelity alerts when attackers move laterally, escalate privileges, or access credentials. Backed by Accel.

About the role

You'll report directly to Bryan O’Neil, our Director of Customer Engineering. You'll partner closely with sales, product, engineering, and directly with our customers to ensure successful evaluations and wider outcomes via our platform.

What they're looking for

  • You learn technical concepts quickly. You can rapidly grasp new technical concepts and translate them into clear value propositions. You're comfortable diving into technical documentation and asking smart questions to fill knowledge gaps
  • You work well with GTM teams. You understand the sales process and know when to lead technical discussions versus when to support account executives. You can identify technical blockers and work collaboratively to overcome them
  • You're comfortable in startup environments. You've experienced the pace of an early-stage company and this pace excites you. You can handle ambiguity, build processes from scratch, and adapt quickly as priorities shift
More about this role

Tracebit is helping some of the world's best security teams at Snyk, Docker, Riot Games and many more to achieve an ' assume breach ' strategy at scale. Tracebit detects intrusions in critical environments using canaries - decoy assets deployed to deceive attackers.

We're at a massive inflection point and there has never been a more exciting time to join us:

We've built a product that security teams love. You'll be our founding Sales Engineer (a key part of our Customer Engineering team), helping build the technical foundation for how we grow our customer base and deliver outcomes at scale.

We are backed by some of the best investors in the space (Accel, FirstMark and more).

We are growing very quickly (we doubled ARR last quarter), having recently closed some incredible customers that we can't disclose publicly!

We are one of the most exciting startups to be part of in cybersecurity, have seen some great feedback from the market and are ready for explosive growth.

We have strong traction in the US (80% of our customer base and forward-looking business). We've hit product-market fit and it's time to accelerate our growth by building our US presence.
