About Refractal Refractal is an AI security company building the infrastructure organisations need to defend against autonomous AI threats. 2026 has shown that generally capable intelligence is here. The challenge now is modernising security to stop AI-enabled threats, whether they come from internal agents going rogue or from attackers using AI to become more dangerous. Refractal was founded on cybersecurity and AI expertise from MIT, Microsoft, NASA and the U.S. Navy. Our product lets organisations detect AI-enabled threats at low cost without sacrificing detection quality. We take a practical approach to AI risk, combining proven cybersecurity methods with frontier AI security research.

What you'll do Develop a focused account strategy across agreed EMEA markets, prioritising organisations with relevant security needs and building opportunities through targeted prospecting and relationship development. Lead discovery with security, technical and business stakeholders to understand the problem, its impact, the decision process and what would justify a purchase. Work with technical colleagues to shape demonstrations and evaluations around agreed customer outcomes, keeping requirements, responsibilities and next steps clear throughout.

Nice to have Experience selling cybersecurity products or working with security teams as buyers. Experience working with regional channel, referral or other commercial partners. Additional language skills relevant to EMEA markets, or familiarity with AI security challenges. Our values Radical transparency. We believe the best work happens when everyone feels able to give and receive honest, constructive feedback. Public service. We see AI security as a form of public service. Getting the AI transition right means putting the right infrastructure in place to manage the threats that come with it, and our work helps protect the institutions and services society depends on. Fail fast. We test ideas early, seek feedback and learn quickly. We experiment rapidly and change course when something isn't working, without compromising on security. Pragmatism, not dogmatism. We choose approaches based on how well they solve the problem. That means combining established cybersecurity methods with frontier AI research, questioning our assumptions, and changing our minds when the evidence changes.
