  • Close revenue and establish the foundations for a scalable sales process. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
  • At least one year of experience in account executive, sales development, or enterprise sales roles.
  • Experience building and managing a pipeline through outbound prospecting, and closing deals from initial contact through signature.
  • B2B SaaS sales experience, with ownership of the full sales cycle and revenue targets.
  • Experience developing sales messaging or value propositions and identifying ideal customer profiles or target markets.
  • Comfort working in ambiguity, with strong ownership and accountability for outcomes.
  • Experience selling to technical or product-focused buyers, or familiarity with AI, machine learning, developer tools, early-stage startups, or founder-led sales, is valuable.
  • US work authorization is required. COMPENSATION & BENEFITS Salary range: $80,000 to $120,000 USD annually. Visa sponsorship is not available. LOCATION On-site in San Francisco, United States.
