The posting

About Rivia Rivia is a technology company building a data engine that powers the future of clinical trial intelligence. Rivia was founded on the belief that new drugs can be brought to market more successfully with a fraction of today's capital. Biotechs are the source of most therapeutic innovation, yet clinical development is constantly constrained by fragmented data and outdated tooling. Rivia unifies clinical trial data at scale through a core engine built as a reusable intelligence layer, comprising hundreds of configurations and trial-specific logic, independent of source structure. This vertical stack of data engine, workflows, and agents creates a distinct advantage in how trials are operated. Over the past two years, European and US based biotechs running global clinical trials on Rivia have demonstrated measurable impact, from earlier understanding of therapeutic potential to significantly more efficient trial execution. In March 2026, Rivia raised its $15M Series A led by Earlybird Venture Capital. Rivia’s ambition is to become the standard infrastructure for modern drug development, transforming how trials are executed end-to-end.

The Role As an Account Executive, you will drive the growth of Rivia by identifying and closing new business opportunities within the Biotech and pharmaceutical sectors. You will own the full sales cycle—from lead generation to closing deals. Your ability to understand client needs, present Rivia’s value proposition, and build lasting relationships will be key to your success. You’ll collaborate closely with the marketing and product teams to align go-to-market strategies and help shape the future of Rivia's customer base.

Responsibilities Identify, target, and close new business opportunities within the Biotech and pharmaceutical sectors. Develop and execute a strategic sales plan to achieve sales targets and expand Rivia’s client base.

Present and demonstrate Rivia’s platform, effectively communicating its value proposition to prospective clients. Build and maintain strong, long-lasting relationships with clients, ensuring high levels of customer satisfaction. Collaborate with marketing and product teams to ensure alignment and optimize go-to-market strategies. Manage the entire sales cycle from lead generation to negotiation and closing. Track and report on sales metrics, providing regular updates to senior management. Stay up-to-date with industry trends and competitor activities to identify new business opportunities and areas for improvement.

What Excites You A fast-paced, high-growth startup environment where your work directly impacts the company's success. The opportunity to drive new business and work with some of the most innovative companies in the Biotech industry. Being part of a collaborative team where autonomy and ownership are encouraged.

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.
