Full Job Description

đź“‹ Description

  • • Work with high-intent inbound leads from enriched, segmented enterprise logos and high-growth companies across the Americas.
  • • Build upon and pressure-test existing sales playbooks, validating hypotheses and iterating to scale what works.
  • • Run experiments across messaging, timing, and communication channels to identify repeatable, scalable sales patterns.
  • • Expand existing customer accounts by identifying opportunities for upselling to higher tiers or additional products.
  • • Proactively prevent churn by distinguishing between accounts worth retaining and those exiting due to natural lifecycle factors.
  • • Serve as the primary voice of the customer internally, feeding actionable insights back to product, marketing, and customer success teams.
  • • Document all learnings, processes, and outcomes to create and evolve the team’s official sales playbook.
  • • Collaborate directly with founders to shape the early infrastructure and strategy of the Buyer Experience Squad.
  • • Operate without a fully finished playbook, embracing ambiguity and building processes from first principles.
  • • Engage with technically sophisticated customers, including infrastructure engineers and newer developers, maintaining credibility on topics like APIs and email deliverability.
  • • Maintain a scientist’s mindset: form hypotheses, measure outcomes, and iterate based on data from every customer interaction.
  • • Prioritize craftsmanship in sales—attention to detail, clarity in communication, and quality in every touchpoint.
  • • Travel as needed for conferences, prospect on-sites, and team events to enhance customer value and team cohesion.
  • • Focus on learning and experimentation during the first 3–6 months, with quotas defined collaboratively after initial findings.
  • • Operate in a team-oriented culture exploring shared quota models as the function scales.
  • • Work 100% remotely with a flexible schedule aligned to Americas time zones.
  • • Contribute to a low-ego, autonomous team culture where shipping and learning are prioritized over rigid processes.

🎯 Requirements

  • • Proven experience as a founding Account Executive, early sales hire, or transitioned from BizOps/RevOps/Success into sales.
  • • Demonstrated ability to operate without a finished playbook and build sales processes from scratch.
  • • Technical aptitude to hold credible conversations about infrastructure, APIs, and email deliverability.
  • • Strong documentation habits and a collaborative mindset—sharing learnings to elevate the entire team.
  • • Customer-obsessed approach with comfort engaging both technical and non-technical buyers.
  • • Willingness to travel for conferences, on-site meetings, and team events.

🏖️ Benefits

  • • $160,000 - $220,000 USD OTE (base + variable), commensurate with experience.
  • • 100% remote work with flexible schedule aligned to Americas time zones.
  • • Work directly with founders building the sales function from the ground up.
  • • Clear path to co-define quotas based on team learning and experimentation.
  • • Team-oriented culture with exploration of shared quota models as the company scales.
  • • Access to a low-ego, autonomous team environment focused on craftsmanship and learning.
