Build Something That Saves Lives
Cygnus makes the only hard hat with 360-degree lighting built in — no attachments, no excuses. We're looking for grinders who want to be in on the ground floor of a safety product that's already certified, funded, and shipping.
Cygnus is on a mission to change the safety world — and we're starting with the hard hat. Not an upgrade. Not a better add-on. A total redesign from the ground up.
The hard hat hasn't fundamentally changed in decades. Workers are still dying from struck-by incidents, still buying bulky attachments that they pull off the moment they get uncomfortable, still choosing between visibility and wearability. We decided that was unacceptable. So we built a hard hat where the lighting is part of the hat — integrated, always-on, and certified to the same standards as every major competitor but lighter and half the price.
This is the beginning. The hard hat is where we start. Where we go from here depends on the people who join us now.
Regional Sales Representative
You'll own a territory and sell directly to EHS directors, safety managers, and procurement teams at construction companies, mining operations, and utilities crews. These are B2B sales with real urgency — OSHA compliance, workers' comp costs, and liability exposure make this an easy conversation to open.
- Prospect and reach out to safety decision-makers in your region via LinkedIn, email, and phone
- Conduct site visits and deliver product demos and free samples
- Close bulk orders ranging from 10-unit pilots to 500-unit fleet upgrades
- Build relationships with local distributors and safety supply dealers
- Feed intel back to the founder on objections, competitors, and market signals
- 2+ years of B2B sales — PPE, construction supplies, or industrial is a plus but not required
- Comfortable calling on job sites and speaking with blue-collar decision makers
- Self-starter with a hunter mentality — you'll build your own pipeline
- LinkedIn-savvy and not afraid of outbound outreach
- A genuine belief that safety gear matters
