The Opportunity

As an Account Executive, you will run the full sales cycle, from sourcing your own pipeline through outbound to closing. Outbounding is a core, non-negotiable part of this role, paired one-to-one with a dedicated SDR to help you generate opportunities. Deals move at high velocity, with sales cycles closer to a month, and the product is straightforward enough that you can ramp quickly and focus on doing what you do best: hunting and closing.

This is a job for someone who wants real upside and is excited to grind. You will be a foundational contributor on a team that is set to grow significantly, with clear room to make an outsized impact early.
Responsibilities
  • Own the full sales cycle from prospecting through close
  • Run consistent outbound to build and maintain your own pipeline
  • Manage high-velocity deals with sales cycles around one month
  • Partner one-to-one with a dedicated SDR to maximize opportunity flow
  • Hit and exceed quota in a competitive, metrics-driven environment
Requirements
  • Closing experience is mandatory; comfortable owning deals end to end
  • At least ~8 months to a year of full-cycle sales experience
  • Strong outbound chops; genuinely comfortable prospecting
  • Demonstrated hunger, competitiveness, and a willingness to grind
  • Able to ramp quickly without heavy hand-holding
  • Bonus: experience selling to non-tech buyers and in high-velocity, transactional sales environments
