Events & Field Marketing

Who We Are

We’re on a mission to stop the most dominant cyberattacks on the planet.

Petra Security runs an AI-powered platform to protect SMBs from account takeovers. SMBs spend over $100 Billion a year on cybersecurity and are facing increasingly sophisticated and frequent attacks. Business Email Compromise attacks (BECs) have exploded, rising 141% y/y, largely driven by AI phishing. They have become the #1 way that businesses lose money to cyberattacks. Petra detects more attacks and responds faster than any competitor on the market, while also triggering fewer false positives.

We’ve grown very quickly, reaching mid-7-figures in ARR in a year. Over the last year, we’ve established ourselves as the best-in-class solution for account attack detection (check out our research). We already protect over 1.6 Million users across 10,000 businesses. We win 90% of head-to-heads. We price premium, yet have extremely low customer churn. Our customers consistently tell us that Petra is the best product they’ve ever used. You can see a demo of Petra here.

This is a rare chance to join early and help scale to $20M in revenue in the next 12 months.

Our founders are YC W24, and ex-Abnormal Security, Palo Alto Networks, and Bridgewater.

What You’ll Do

Tradeshows and field events are one of our primary pipeline channels. You'll own the entire lifecycle, from selecting and booking events to running the booth to making sure every lead is followed up on. This is a high-ownership, high-output role where the details matter.

• Own conference logistics end to end: sponsorship contracts, booth setup, shipping, staffing, badging, hotel blocks, and everything in between
• Manage our annual events calendar: evaluate which conferences are worth attending, recommend where to invest, and own the plan through execution
• Run the booth: be on the ground at events, coordinate the team, and make sure we come home with qualified leads
• Organize and execute roadshow dinners and partner events to deepen relationships with MSP partners before and after tradeshows
• Own post-event follow-up: work closely with the BDR and AE team to make sure every lead is tracked, followed up on, and converted
• Build and manage vendor relationships: booth builders, swag suppliers, AV, and other event vendors
• Track and report on event ROI: know which events are driving pipeline and which aren't, and bring a point of view on where to invest next
  
  

What You Bring

• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple events and deadlines simultaneously without dropping the ball
• Experience working cross-functionally with sales teams to drive pipeline from events, and measuring ROI
