The posting

ABOUT THE ROLE

Join an early-stage AI/ML B2B SaaS company as its first Account Executive. You will build the sales motion from the ground up, partnering with the founder to move from founder-led selling to a repeatable process and take direct ownership of revenue generation.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Generate pipeline through outbound prospecting and cold outreach without dedicated SDR support.

- Identify and engage relevant prospects, starting substantive conversations that advance sales opportunities.

- Manage deals through the full sales cycle, from discovery and qualification to negotiation and contract signature.

- Work with the founder to define the ideal customer profile, target segments, outreach messaging, and sales playbook.

- 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.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
