Koop Technologies, New York, NY, United States
Account Executive, GovCon Solutions
Company:Koop Technologies
Position:Account Executive, GovCon Solutions
Type:Full-Time
Location:New York, NY (in-person or hybrid)
Who We Are: Koop Technologies (“Koop”) helps trailblazing tech companies commercialize faster by taking care of compliance, security, and insurance requirements in a single, seamless GRC platform. Startups in AI & Software 2.0, Robotics, Energy & Climate, Aerospace & Defense, Manufacturing, and more verticals rely on Koop daily to satisfy contractual requirements from customers and the government.
This decade will be defined by Deep Tech. As Aerospace & Defense, dual-use, and federal‑adjacent startups scale, they face increasingly stringent cybersecurity requirements — especially under CMMC and NIST 800‑171. These requirements are complex, resource‑intensive, and often misunderstood.
Koop’s mission is to simplify compliance for the most technically ambitious companies in the world while protecting society from a new generation of risks.
We are post‑product‑market‑fit, growing rapidly, and expanding our compliance team to support product development and customer success in the CMMC space. We value strong work ethic, first‑principles thinking, creative problem‑solving, excellent communication skills, and technical depth.
Job Description: We are looking for a senior Account Executive, GovCon Solutions who will play a pivotal role in both:
Driving revenue growth by selling Koop’s CMMC compliance and GRC platform solutions to government contractors, and
Helping shape how Koop positions and delivers CMMC automation capabilities within the GovCon market.
This is a high‑impact IC role with significant ownership of the sales cycle. You will directly manage strategic customer engagements while helping refine our go‑to‑market strategy for CMMC compliance and defense‑focused organizations.
Working closely with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Leadership, you will:
Lead end‑to‑end sales cycles for Aerospace & Defense and federal‑adjacent customers pursuing CMMC compliance
Engage with security, compliance, and executive stakeholders to position Koop’s platform as the system of record for CMMC readiness and ongoing compliance
Guide prospects through the business and operational value of automating NIST SP 800‑171 implementation, SSP development, POA&M management, gap assessments, and audit preparation
Translate CMMC Level 1 and 2 requirements into compelling product value for technical and non‑technical buyers
Build trusted relationships with CISOs, compliance leaders, founders, and federal program leaders within defense contractors and supply chain organizations
Partner closely with Product to communicate customer needs and market insights related to CMMC workflows, control tracking, evidence collection, and reporting
Collaborate with Marketing and Leadership on GovCon‑focused go‑to‑market initiatives, including webinars, thought leadership, and customer education
Act as a trusted advisor to prospects navigating the evolving CMMC landscape
Stay current with CMMC rulemaking, DoD guidance, and evolving assessment standards to effectively educate customers
Consistently achieve and exceed revenue targets while building a strong pipeline of qualified GovCon opportunities
You will join a team of product builders, engineers, and compliance professionals building the pioneering GRC platform for the Defense Industrial Base in the U.S.
Job Requirements:
Strong experience selling cybersecurity, compliance, or GRC solutions into government contractors or defense‑adjacent organizations
Familiarity with CMMC Level 1 and 2 and NIST SP 800‑171 requirements and the challenges organizations face achieving certification
Understanding of DFARS 252.204‑7012 and related DoD cybersecurity requirements
Experience navigating complex enterprise or regulated sales cycles with multiple stakeholders
Ability to communicate technical and regulatory concepts clearly to both technical and executive audiences
Strong discovery, consultative selling, and solution positioning skills
Founder mindset, strong ownership, and ability to operate in a fast‑paced startup environment
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Qualifications:
6+ years of experience in enterprise SaaS, cybersecurity, or compliance sales
Prior experience selling into the defense industrial base (DIB), federal contractors, or regulated industries
Bachelor’s degree in Business, Engineering, Information Systems, or related field
Experience selling GRC, cybersecurity, or compliance automation platforms is strongly preferred
Experience working with early‑stage or high‑growth companies is a strong plus
Administrative:
In‑person or hybrid role in New York City
Competitive salary and generous equity
Health, dental, and vision package
Flexible time off and paid holidays
Paid professional development (courses, certifications, conferences)
Tremendous growth opportunity (professionally, personally, and financially)
Why Koop Technologies?
A rare opportunity to shape how CMMC compliance is automated for the next generation of Aerospace & Defense startups
Direct impact on product development and customer success at an early‑stage, high‑growth company
Work with an energetic, high‑caliber team across product, engineering, compliance, and sales
Help define best practices for CMMC automation and defense cybersecurity compliance
Join a mission‑driven company protecting the world from a new generation of technological risks
