Full Job Description
We are hiring a Head of Sales to lead that transition. You will work directly with the founders, own our enterprise strategy and results, personally win strategic accounts, and build the team around what works.

This is a zero-to-one, player-builder role. You will carry the number and close deals yourself before you hire and lead a larger organization.

What You'll Do
  • Own Nango's enterprise sales strategy and results.
  • Personally build pipeline and close strategic accounts.
  • Lead deals through evaluation, security, procurement, and negotiation.
  • Refine our ICP, positioning, pricing, and sales motion.
  • Establish forecasting, account strategy, and operating cadence.
  • Turn customer insight into product and company strategy.
  • Hire and lead the sales team as the motion becomes repeatable.
Who You Are
  • You have built enterprise pipeline or a GTM motion from the ground up.
  • You can operate as a hands-on seller today and a company leader over time.
  • You combine commercial judgment with strong technical curiosity.
  • You build trusted relationships across technical and executive teams.
  • You bring structure, urgency, and accountability without needing a playbook.
  • You want responsibility for building a company, not just managing a territory.
  • Bonus: you have founded a company or been an early GTM leader.
  • Bonus: you were a strong enterprise seller and want broader ownership.
  • Bonus: you have sold developer tools, infrastructure, or AI products.
Location

This is an in-person role in San Francisco.
