Director, Business Development - Security
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content.
Let's extract:
About the role: The introductory paragraphs describing Cohesity and the role purpose. Could be a prose paragraph.
Responsibilities: The bullet list under "HOW YOU’LL SPEND YOUR TIME HERE:" includes multiple items. We'll make a
with each line.
Requirements: maybe the "WE’D LOVE TO TALK TO YOU IF YOU HAVE MANY OF THE FOLLOWING:" list. That's requirements.
Qualifications: maybe the "WE ARE EXTRA EXCITED IF YOU HAVE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING:" list. Could be qualifications or preferred qualifications. We'll treat as Qualifications.
Skills: maybe not separate; but we could combine some. However we need to decide sections. The posting includes skills like "Strong cross-functional operating skills", "Data fluency", etc. Those are within requirements list. Could be part of Requirements. But we need to follow instruction: Use sections only when posting has real specific content for it. We can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Skills maybe not needed separately if covered.
Benefits: The paragraph about benefits: "Additionally, full-time employees are eligible to participate in our comprehensive benefits framework, including health and wellness benefits, vacation, paid holidays and refresh days, 401(k) retirement plan, life and disability insurance coverages, and other benefits the Company may offer from time to time." Also maybe mention bonus compensation, commission, equity grants. That's benefits.
Pay: The pay range paragraph: "Disclosure Pursuant to Applicable State Equal Pay Transparency Laws - This position has a starting pay range as listed below. Actual salary depends upon many factors, including a candidate’s skills, qualifications and experience, location, and salary expectations, and therefore a starting salary at the low end, high end, or even above the stated range may be offered. This position may also be eligible for bonus compensation, commission (if in a sales function), and/or equity grants. Additionally, full-time employees are eligible to participate in our comprehensive benefits framework, including health and wellness benefits, vacation, paid holidays and refresh days, 401(k) retirement plan, life and disability insurance coverages, and other benefits the Company may offer from time to time. Pay Range : $269,280.00-$336,600.00 The compensation noted above is based on an annualized hourly rate assuming normal full-time employment. Current pay transparency shows the OTE (On-Target Earnings) for commission-based roles."
We need to keep all substantive info. However note that benefits paragraph appears also in Pay section; but we already have Benefits section; we might duplicate. To avoid duplication, we could keep benefits only in Benefits section, and Pay section just about pay range and OTE etc. But the instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; we can split but not duplicate same sentence. The benefits sentence appears in both places; we can keep it in Benefits section and omit from Pay section (or keep but it's duplication). Better to avoid duplication: keep benefits in Benefits section, and Pay section includes pay range, note about actual salary, bonus, commission, equity, OTE.
Schedule: In-Office Expectations paragraph.

About the role
Cohesity is a leader in AI-powered data security and management. Aided by an extensive ecosystem of partners, Cohesity makes it easy to secure, protect, manage, and get value from data — across the data center, edge, and cloud. Cohesity helps organizations defend against cybersecurity threats with comprehensive data security and management capabilities, including immutable backup snapshots, AI-based threat detection, monitoring for malicious behavior, and rapid recovery at scale. We’ve been named a Leader by multiple analyst firms and have been globally recognized for Innovation, Product Strength, and Simplicity in Design. Join us on our mission to shape the future of our industry. The Security specialist organization is a founding team: a lean group of Security Sales Specialists and Solutions Architects covering the highest-priority markets first, with more markets earning dedicated coverage over time. A team this size can't put a dedicated person in every territory on day one, and it can't afford every rep independently rebuilding enablement or waiting on operational support that doesn't exist yet. This role is both things a lean specialist team needs and doesn't yet have: the scale mechanism that generates coverage in markets without a dedicated rep, and the connective tissue that keeps a fast-growing, globally distributed team operating as one function instead of independent pods. You have two jobs that reinforce each other. First, you own go-to-market motion and pipeline generation for every market without a dedicated Security Sales Specialist or Security Solutions Architect — through targeted campaigns, partner-sourced pipeline, and programs that reach accounts the core team can't cover directly. Second, you are the operational hub for the specialist organization itself — enablement, reporting, cross-functional coordination, and the infrastructure that lets the VP, the Solutions Architecture leader, and the field spend their time selling and coaching instead of building decks and chasing status updates. At the center of this role is one standing responsibility: helping structure and maintain a cohesive, impactful operating model for the Security specialist organization as it scales.
Responsibilities
- Own an assigned quota for markets without dedicated coverage — build and run targeted campaigns, plays, and programs that generate and convert pipeline.
- Own the data model that signals when a market is ready for dedicated coverage, and manage joint go-to-market programs with technology and channel partners.
- Build direct executive relationships between Cohesity and customer security leadership — briefing programs, roundtables, and a consistent point of view.
- Be the cross-functional connective tissue for the specialist organization — the single point of coordination with Marketing, Sales/Revenue Operations, Product, and the broader delivery ecosystem.
- Own and maintain the team's enablement and positioning library, and scale what works into repeatable sales plays, programs, and campaigns.
- Design and run internal sales incentives, and own territory data hygiene and the reporting infrastructure that gives leadership a single source of truth.
- Build and maintain the recurring leadership narrative, run the team's operating cadence, and partner with recruiting on hiring pipeline and ramp logistics.
Requirements
- Minimum of 5 years of experience in the cybersecurity industry, with a focus on business development and strategic partnerships.
- Demonstrated success building and scaling partner-driven growth initiatives in a global environment.
- Demonstrable experience driving scale in a global environment.
- Experience building demand-generation or scale-coverage programs, and managing partner/channel go-to-market programs — co-marketing, deal registration, joint pipeline.
- Strong cross-functional operating skills — comfortable being the connective tissue among Sales, Marketing, Product, and Operations without formal authority.
- Data fluency and program-management discipline — able to run multiple concurrent workstreams without dropping any of them.
- Strong written and visual communication skills, and experience designing sales incentive programs that turn a one-off win into a repeatable play.
- Demonstrated ability to leverage AI tools to enhance productivity, streamline workflows, and support decision making.
- Professional English language proficiency for customer and internal communication.
- The ability to travel as required for the role.
Qualifications
- Experience supporting a newly formed or fast-scaling specialist / overlay sales organization, with background in cybersecurity, data protection, or cyber-resilience markets.
- Experience with territory or trigger-based coverage models, and building recruiting pipeline or onboarding programs with a hiring manager or Talent team.
Benefits
- Health and wellness benefits
- Vacation, paid holidays and refresh days
- 401(k) retirement plan
- Life and disability insurance coverages
- Other benefits the Company may offer from time to time
- Bonus compensation
- Commission (if in a sales function)
- Equity grants

Schedule
Cohesity employees who are within a reasonable commute (e.g. within a forty‑five (45) minute average travel time) work out of our core offices 2‑3 days a week of their choosing. We strongly prefer candidates who are currently located in or near the designated job location. Candidates outside the area should apply only if they are committed to relocating prior to their start date and have the legal right to work in the job location.
Check for any leftover boilerplate: we removed EEO, Data Privacy Notice, etc. Good.
Make sure no duplicate content: Benefits list includes items also mentioned in Pay paragraph (bonus, commission, equity). That's okay as they are separate sections; but we might have duplicated the benefit items. However the instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; duplication is not prohibited but could be considered redundant. However we already have benefits section listing those; Pay section also mentions bonus, commission, equity grants. That's okay as it's not repeating the same sentence exactly but overlapping info.
