About the Role

As the VP Sales, US, you will open and grow our most important market, sourcing, running, and closing new business with banks, fintechs, exchanges, and digital asset businesses across the US and Canada. This role goes beyond carrying a number; you'll build the US playbook, bring buyer feedback to the product roadmap, and lay the foundation for the US team, working closely with solutions engineering, account management, and delivery, reporting directly to the Chief Revenue Officer.

- Run the full enterprise buying cycle, including RFPs, security reviews, architecture reviews, procurement, and legal.
- Bring in solutions engineering, account management, delivery, and executives at the right moment in each deal.
- Feed US buyer needs back to the product team.
- Represent DFNS at industry events, conferences, and client gatherings.
- Define and help hire the US sales pod with the CRO.
Requirements
- 10+ years of enterprise sales experience in financial technology or infrastructure.
- Closed deals with banks and financial institutions that required security, architecture, and procurement sign-off.
- Experience selling to fast-moving fintech buyers.
- Built a sales playbook from scratch and scaled it.
- Carried a number and exceeded it while building your own pipeline.
- Comfortable in environments with significant ambiguity, such as early-stage startups or new business lines.
- Enough technical fluency to work directly with engineers and security architects.
