Job description
- We're partnering with high-growth AI companies looking for exceptional enterprise sellers to help build their next stage of growth.
- These are early GTM opportunities for AEs who want more than a territory and a quota. You'll work directly with founders and senior leadership, sell complex technology to enterprise customers and help define how the company builds its sales organization.
- You'll be joining companies operating at the intersection of AI, enterprise software, insurance, data and automation.
- As an early Enterprise AE, you'll have a seat at the table.
- You'll be responsible for winning major customers while helping build the playbook the rest of the sales organization will eventually follow.
- The best enterprise salespeople eventually reach a point where another $20K in OTE isn't the real motivator.
- Ownership is.
- Work directly with the founders
- Help define the company's GTM strategy
- Land some of its most important customers
- Influence product and positioning
- Build a sales playbook from the ground up
- Grow into sales leadership as the organization scales
- Participate in meaningful equity upside
- This is for the AE who is tired of being one of 50 reps carrying a number.
- You want to be one of the people building the company.
- If you have a track record of winning enterprise deals, creating pipeline and selling to executives - and you're excited about what AI can do for businesses - we'd like to talk.
Responsibilities
- Own strategic enterprise accounts from first conversation through close
- Build relationships with C-suite and senior executive buyers
- Create pipeline through targeted outbound and strategic account development
- Run complex, multi-threaded sales cycles
- Develop business cases around high-value AI use cases
- Close six- and seven-figure enterprise opportunities
- Work directly with founders and company leadership
- Partner with product and engineering to influence the roadmap
- Help define ICP, messaging, pricing and sales strategy
- Turn early wins into repeatable enterprise sales motions
Requirements
- We're looking for salespeople who have proven they can create enterprise revenue.
- 5+ years of enterprise SaaS or technology sales experience
- A consistent history of exceeding quota
- Experience closing complex, high-value enterprise deals
- Strong executive presence and C-level selling experience
- The ability to navigate multiple stakeholders and lengthy procurement processes
- Experience building pipeline without relying entirely on SDR-generated leads
- Strong commercial instincts and consultative selling ability
- A genuine interest in AI and emerging technology
- A builder mentality
- Experience selling AI, infrastructure, data, cybersecurity, fintech, insurtech, martech or other technical products is highly valued.
