The posting, as TRM Labs wrote it

BUILD A SAFER WORLD.

TRM Labs provides AI-powered intelligence solutions that help public and private sector agencies investigate and disrupt crime. TRM's platforms enable investigators to trace illicit activity, build cases, and construct operating pictures of threat networks. Leading agencies and businesses worldwide rely on TRM to make the world safer and more secure.

TRM Labs is looking for a Account Director, Pathfinder to bring our newest data products to market by expanding and deepening our footprint across existing enterprise accounts. This role is for someone who thrives at the intersection of strategy, execution, and customer obsession—someone who’s passionate about helping defense and national security agencies realize entirely new outcomes with TRM’s intelligence platform.

You’ll work directly with TRM’s founder, CRO, product, and GTM teams to iterate messaging, learn from the field, and shape how new products drive impact within our most critical customer relationships.

The impact you will have

• Bring new data products to market by working within existing accounts to uncover and activate high-value opportunities

• Collaborate with our founder and product teams to iterate on messaging, refine positioning, and surface feedback that informs roadmap and strategy
• Stay embedded in key accounts through renewals, workshops, advisory sessions, and expansion opportunities

What we’re looking for

• 8+ years in enterprise SaaS sales, ideally selling data, compliance, fraud, or AI products into US National Security and Defense agencies.
• Experience working within existing customer relationships to land new product lines and drive expansion revenue
• A track record of success launching early-stage or newly released products into the market
• Strong comfort with technical concepts and data products—you understand what they do (and don’t do) and can translate that value to customers
• Exceptional executive presence, curiosity, listening skills, and comfort navigating ambiguity
• A builder’s mindset—you enjoy shaping the GTM playbook, not just executing one

About the team

• The Public Sector Business Development team is made of independent sales leaders who take ownership and initiative of their territory and responsibilities. Because we’re a global team, each team member is a master of their own territory.
• We work asynchronously to share intel, win strategies, and su
