Riot Security · New York, United States · Full-time · Posted 2026-07-15
Workplace: on_site
Department: Sales
We want to instill cybersecurity good practices to employees in a way that's actually effective, and entertaining enough so that employees don't feel like they're working. Think Duolingo but for cybersecurity.
We created a platform to easily rollout a cybersecurity awareness program: the platform sends chat-based 4-minutes long courses to teams. Following the courses, the other side of the platform simulates phishing attacks, to prepare employees to face hackers, but in a safe environment.
Created in 2020, Riot has raised $45m with leading investors (Y Combinator, Left Lane, Base10, Funders Club and First Capital) and is now protecting more than 2,000,000 employees in over 2,000 companies (including Intercom, Deel, and Deezer) all over the world.
Cybersecurity is everywhere. It's impacting everyone, everyday, and it's becoming the number one risk to any organization, whether it's a small business or a big firm. Yet, the cybersecurity culture in most companies is a disaster. Hackers are leveraging this by targeting the weakest link: the employees. We're on a mission to fix that.
You will report directly to Benjamin, our co-founder and CEO. Your mission is to launch and own the US market, from first sales to a fully operational team.
You will define how Riot goes to market in the US, close the first deals yourself, recruit the sales team, and set the foundation for Riot to become a market leader in the largest cybersecurity market in the world.
Riot has a proven business model and a product customers love. We grow 100% YoY, with $20M+ in revenue across 23 countries at the start of 2026.
We're looking for someone to replicate this success and help us crack the US market. We're already at $0.5M with a few strong logos. Your job: make it a success, with solid foundations to build on.

All-in-one data and operations security platform.
Riot Security provides an all-in-one security platform designed to protect a company’s data and operations. It combines technical safeguards with an employee-focused education program, recognizing that people are a key part of security. The platform is easy to use and is deployed by over 400 companies, backed by a 97% employee approval rating, which suggests strong user engagement in security practices. The main differentiator is its emphasis on employee engagement and satisfaction, actively involving staff in the security process rather than treating security as purely IT controls. The goal is to help organizations keep data and systems secure by combining effective protections with high participation from employees.
