  • You're comfortable selling to technical buyers and quantifying business impact
  • You have strong outbound + account planning chops; you create pipeline consistently
  • You're a true hunter - you proactively build pipeline from scratch through outbound prospecting, creative sourcing, and relentless follow-up, rather than relying on inbound demand
