About the Company

Atomus’ mission is to provide world-class cybersecurity for the world’s most critical organizations. We sell security compliance infrastructure to aerospace and defense companies that need to meet NIST SP 800-171, DFARS 7012 and CMMC requirements. Customers don’t have to build, maintain, monitor and document their own IT infrastructure for audit. Instead, they onboard to our pre-built, pre-compliant infrastructure, which we deliver as a managed service along with professional services and support. Our customers include hypersonic aircraft companies, satellite and space mission systems companies, and AI and software companies, among many others. At Atomus, we work hard, move fast and put our customers first.

About the Role

As a Sales Development Representative, you will build pipeline through prospecting and cold calling. You’ll use AI agents to research accounts and scale your outreach. We’ll teach you our technology, and you’ll use what you learn to have consultative conversations with customers about their security and compliance needs. Expect to travel 25–50% of the time to meet customers and attend industry conferences. This role is for driven, technically curious people who want to build a career in B2B sales and be rewarded for their impact.
