Role Overview

Cogent is building autonomous cyber defense with AI agents that help security teams move from finding risk to actually fixing it. We are hiring a Head of Demand Generation to lead all pipeline-generating functions across marketing, including digital, partner, and field, and sales development.

This person will report into the Head of Growth, who owns revenue marketing and revenue operations: full-funnel revenue management in close partnership with Sales. Within that model, the Head of Demand Generation owns the front end of the revenue engine: creating, converting, and scaling qualified pipeline.

This is a senior player-coach role with room to create immediate leverage. In the first three months, you will sharpen the FY27 demand model, launch the first integrated plays, and start building your team across field/channel and digital/content so Cogent can scale pipeline with far more leverage.
