- Build outbound campaigns from the ground up, including prospect lists, email sequences, and channel tests.
- Experiment with sales tactics and adjust based on performance data.
- Source, qualify, and close enterprise opportunities, setting success criteria for each pilot.
- Run customer proofs of concept independently, from scoping through the final decision.
- Hold hands-on sales conversations with AI agents to understand their workflows and needs.
- Share customer feedback and objections with the product team to inform roadmap decisions.
- Manage a sales budget and take ownership of pipeline and closing targets. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

- Experience building custom workflows and automation with modern go-to-market tools.
- Strong written communication for both technical and financial stakeholders.
- Resourcefulness in finding paths to decision-makers when standard outreach is ineffective, and a data-driven approach to testing sales channels.
- Background in enterprise sales, early-stage startups, founding a company, or competitive athletics.
- Interest in how AI agents can change work inside enterprises, and a preference for hands-on individual contributor work. COMPENSATION & BENEFITS Base salary is $80,000 to $120,000 annually.
