ABOUT THE ROLE
Build the sales motion from the ground up for an early-stage AI company serving consumer goods and supply chain operations teams. As the founding sales lead, you will work closely with the CEO and a GTM engineering partner, owning the full sales cycle while creating a repeatable playbook for growth.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Own sales end to end, from prospecting and outreach through discovery, demos, negotiation, and close.
- Lead consultative conversations with operations buyers to understand their workflows and identify business challenges.
- Document a repeatable sales blueprint, including qualification criteria, objection handling, discovery frameworks, demo scripts, and pricing conversations.
- Partner with a GTM engineer to define ideal customer signals and improve outbound systems using insights from sales calls.
- Bring market feedback into positioning, messaging, website copy, outbound sequences, and marketing content.
- Close new customers and identify opportunities to expand accounts and build customer advocacy.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- At least 3 years of experience in B2B sales, account executive, or business development roles, ideally at an early-stage startup.
- Experience helping build a sales playbook and shaping a sales process rather than only following an established one.
- Strong consultative discovery skills, curiosity about business operations, and the ability to build trust with non-software buyers.
- Comfort using CRM, sales sequencing, and enrichment tools, and collaborating with technical GTM partners.
- Familiarity with consumer goods, food and beverage, operations, or supply chain is helpful, but not required.
- A self-directed, resourceful approach to building pipeline, setting priorities, and learning through execution.
