Partnership and Alliance Manager (Cybersecurity)

We are looking for builders, not followers.

This opportunity is ideal for individuals with an entrepreneurial mindset who enjoy creating opportunities, opening new markets, building strategic partnerships, and driving business growth. We are seeking self-starters who thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth environment and are motivated by ownership, impact, and results.

X-PHY is a cybersecurity technology company delivering innovative solutions that proactively protect businesses from evolving cyber threats. As we continue to expand globally, we are seeking a Partnership and Alliance Manager to drive strategic growth across our partner ecosystem. This role will be responsible for developing and managing relationships with Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs), Solution Integrators, and Technology Alliance Partners.

We don’t just build products—we build the future. As a cybersecurity technology company, we are pushing boundaries, challenging conventional approaches, and creating transformative solutions to protect the digital world.

Joining us isn’t just about securing a job—it’s about embarking on an entrepreneurial journey. Here, you don’t just work for the company; you help build it.

We believe builders should be rewarded like owners. In addition to competitive compensation and incentives, successful candidates will be eligible for our performance-based RSU program, aligning personal success with the long-term growth and value of the company.

This role is best suited for individuals who enjoy building from the ground up, creating opportunities where none exist, and taking ownership of business outcomes. If you are energized by growth, accountability, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact, we want to hear from you.

Requirements

Focus: Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs), Solution Integrators, and Technology Alliances.

1. Professional Experience (The "Must-Haves")

• 5-8+ Years in Channel/Alliance Sales: Proven track record of recruiting and managing revenue-generating partnerships in the cybersecurity space.
• MSSP/MSP Ecosystem Expertise: deeply familiar with the business models of Managed Service Providers . Understands how they bundle services, their recurring revenue (ARR) goals, and how to insert a hardware/endpoint solution into their service stack.
• Hardware + Software Fluency: Unlike a pure SaaS salesperson, this candidate must have experience selling or partnering around endpoint hardware, firmware, or IoT security. They need to be comfortable discussing "Hardware Root of Trust" alongside software agents.

• GTM Execution: Experience creating joint Go-To-Market plans, including co-branded datasheets, bundled SKUs (e.g., "Secure Remote Worker Bundle"), and joint webinars.
• Hunter Mentality: Demonstrated ability to open doors at new partners from scratch, rather than just farming existing accounts.

3. Preferred Network (The "Nice-to-Haves")

• Existing Rolodex of decision-makers (CTOs, VP of Product) at top-tier MSSPs, System Integrators, and Remote Access vendors.
• Experience working with distributors who specialize in cybersecurity hardware/software.

4. Soft Skills & Cultural Fit

• Evangelist: Capable of educating software-focused partners on why firmware-level protection is the missing piece in their security offering.
