About the Role

This is a highly consultative Enterprise AE role selling into large enterprises and strategic mid-market accounts. You'll own the full sales cycle-from outbound prospecting through close-while acting as a strategic advisor to customers.

The product is flexible and requires thoughtful, multi-threaded selling. Deals often begin as initial land opportunities and expand significantly over time, making this a strong fit for someone who enjoys building relationships and growing accounts.

You'll join a small, early sales team and work closely with leadership to help shape the go-to-market motion as the company scales.

What You'll Do
  • Own full-cycle sales: prospecting, discovery, multi-threading, and closing enterprise deals
  • Build and manage a pipeline through outbound and strategic account targeting
  • Lead consultative sales conversations with senior stakeholders (VPs, execs)
  • Develop account strategies and drive land-and-expand opportunities
  • Collaborate with leadership on messaging, positioning, and sales process improvements
  • Travel occasionally for conferences and customer meetings


Requirements
  • 1+ years of Enterprise AE experience or equivalent experience selling complex deals
  • Proven ability to source pipeline and close deals in a hunting environment
  • Experience selling SaaS, data products, or consultative solutions
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity and building in a fast-paced environment
  • Willingness to work in-office in NYC full-time


Nice to Have
  • Fast progression into enterprise sales (early in career, high trajectory)
  • Startup or early-stage company experience
  • Strong analytical or technical background (e.g., consulting, top academic pedigree, etc.)
  • Experience selling into fintech, payments, or marketplace companies
  • High-intensity, ownership-driven mindset
