The Opportunity

The way organizations hire, onboard, and authenticate employees is under attack. AI-generated deepfakes, synthetic identities, nation-state actors, and sophisticated social engineering campaigns are infiltrating workplaces at an unprecedented scale. More than 300 companies have reported hiring DPRK actors. Employment fraud has grown 5x in the last five years. Gartner predicts that by 2028, 25% of all job candidates will be fake. Employers tell us we're already past that point.

At ID.me, we're the frontline defense. We have spent five years pioneering this space and developing the Employee Lifecycle vision. Today we support over 800 employers, and are integrated into many leading employment platforms. We are becoming the identity layer that connects hiring, onboarding, and workforce access end-to-end.

We are hiring this position to drive enterprise sales across our Employee Lifecycle business. You will work directly with CISOs, CHROs, and CIOs at some of the most influential organizations in the country to embed identity proofing and authentication into the moments that matter mostand you will be selling a solution that has measurable, defensible impact on fraud prevention, candidate experience, and operational cost.

This is high-stakes, high-impact work at the intersection of security, identity, and enterprise technology. If you're energized by complex problems, motivated by protecting people, and ready to bring your best to a category-defining company, we want to hear from you.
