As the first key sales hire, this individual will work directly with the Chief Executive Officer to build the organization's sales engine from the ground up. This is a high-impact, entrepreneurial role responsible for establishing repeatable go-to-market (GTM) foundations, driving high-stakes enterprise deals, and eventually scaling a world-class sales team. The ideal candidate thrives in high-intensity, high-growth startup environments, possesses deep resilience, and is driven by execution and exceptional outcomes.

Key Responsibilities
  • Establish the GTM Engine: Design, implement, and optimize the sales infrastructure, processes, and playbooks required for scalable, repeatable execution.
  • Drive Enterprise Sales Cycles: Own and execute high-stakes outbound sales cycles from initial prospecting through to close, targeting large insurance companies and MGAs.
  • Target High-Value Deals: Successfully navigate and close B2B core infrastructure and software transactions with an Annual Contract Value (ACV) of $150K+ and sales cycles lasting 5 to 8 months.
  • Outbound Pipeline Generation: Actively drive pipeline growth with a heavy focus (70%+) on strategic outbound prospecting.
  • Collaborate and Innovate: Experiment across channels to identify untapped market opportunities, and work closely with product and operations teams to ensure client solutions remain industry-leading.

Requirements
  • Experience: 5 to 10 years of professional sales experience, with a proven track record in full-cycle Account Executive roles.
  • Industry Expertise: Must have direct experience selling B2B core infrastructure or core software within the InsurTech, insurance, or MGA space (not nice-to-have software or services).
  • Proven Performance: Consistent history of hitting sales targets over the past 12 months, with demonstrated experience selling successfully for emerging, non-household brand names.
  • Sales Methodology: Strong discovery and qualification skills utilizing structured frameworks (e.g., MEDDICC, BANT, or similar).
  • Career Stability: A stable professional history, with no more than 3 job changes within the past 5 years.
  • Work Authorization: Valid authorization to work in the United States without the need for current or future visa sponsorship.
  • Location: Remote (United States).

Benefits
  • Compensation: Highly competitive base salary exceeding industry standards.
  • Performance Bonus: Quarterly performance-based bonus of up to 15% of quarterly salary.
  • Equity: Stock option participation as an early-stage team member.
  • Healthcare: Comprehensive medical insurance coverage.
  • Retirement: 401(k) retirement plan with a 4% company match.
  • Career Growth: Accelerated promotion and leadership track within a high-growth, venture-backed organization.


Interview Process
  1. First Round: A technical and behavioral interview with the VP of Sales, focusing on sales methodology, resume depth, past performance, and core motivation.
  2. Second Round: A culture-fit assessment evaluating alignment with the client's core values of speed, direct communication, and customer obsession.
  3. Team Day: A practical assessment featuring a discovery call role-play simulation with the Chief Executive Officer acting as the prospect.
