Founding Enterprise Sales

ABOUT THE ROLE

Join an AI-focused company modernizing legacy mainframe and COBOL systems as its first sales hire. You will build the pipeline and sales playbook, evolving founder-led selling into a repeatable enterprise sales motion.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Own top-of-funnel activity, including sourcing, prospecting, outbound campaigns, ideal customer profile research, and contact mapping.
• Lead initial calls and discovery, handling mid-market conversations and partnering with the CEO on large enterprise accounts.
• Develop a repeatable sales playbook from early founder-led sales efforts.
• Advance opportunities toward signed pilots and contracts.
• Select and configure sales tools, with scope to take ownership of the full sales cycle over time.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Typically 4 to 8 years of experience as an account executive selling technical B2B products or solutions to enterprise customers. Standout candidates with 2 to 3 or more years may also be considered.
• Full-cycle sales experience, including prospecting, outbound, discovery, pipeline development, and closing.
• Experience closing six- and seven-figure enterprise contracts through complex sales cycles, including with large corporate customers.
• A record of consistently exceeding sales quotas, with experience in financial services, insurance, manufacturing, or airlines.
• Startup experience and familiarity with fast-growing technology companies. This role is suited to a hands-on seller rather than a director- or VP-level candidate.
• Experience with CRM, prospecting tools, AI sales tools, and sales automation; familiarity with Attio is relevant.

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

Base salary: $120,000 to $180,000 annually. Commission is uncapped. Visa sponsorship is available.
