Inside Sales Representative - Central at Corelight

Do you want to help make the world safe from cyber attacks? At Corelight, we believe that the best approach to cybersecurity risk starts with the network. Attackers can evade endpoint detection, firewalls and many other technologies - but they can’t avoid leaving digital footprints on the networks they traverse. Built on open-source innovations from Zeek, Suricata and YARA and refined through years of real-world use, Corelight transforms network footprints from physical, virtual and cloud networks into actionable insights. Our customers use these insights to speed incident response and proactively hunt for threats. As an Inside Sales Representative at Corelight, you’ll be at the front lines of our revenue engine. You’ll partner closely with field sales and marketing to qualify leads, generate pipeline, and work closely with their AEs. These tasks will include heavy outbound calls and emails, and social connections to deliver Corelight's Value Propositions — all while sharpening your skills to grow into a field role or other customer-facing position. We’re looking for hungry, coachable, and competitive professionals who thrive in fast-paced, goal-oriented environments.
