- Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with Cylus’ technical and marketing teams to ensure customer success and consistent messaging.
- Represent Cylus: Attend industry events and conferences, helping to expand our presence and network across the DACH rail community.

## Requirements

- 5+ years of experience in sales or business development, ideally within the rail, transportation, or technology sectors.
- Demonstrated success in managing customer relationships and contributing to complex sales cycles.
- Strong communication and presentation skills, with a proactive and entrepreneurial mindset.
- Ability to work independently and thrive in a fast-growing, small-team environment.
- Willingness and ability to travel as required across the DACH region.

Big Plus

- Existing network or relationships within the rail industry (freight and/or passenger/transit).
- Background in technical fields such as computer science, electrical engineering, or cybersecurity.
- Previous experience in cybersecurity sales or technology partnerships.
- Experience working within a start-up environment.
