  • This role is for someone who thrives on speed and volume and doesn't need close oversight to execute.
  • Work with Pre-Sales Engineering on deals that need technical depth, while handling most technical conversations yourself.

Responsibilities

  • Own the full sales cycle for qualified opportunities: confirm fit quickly, run sharp discovery, deliver tailored demos, and close with urgency.
  • Partner closely with GTM Strategists on lead handoffs. Share feedback on lead quality and fit, stay aligned on priority accounts, and make the transition from qualification to active deal seamless for the buyer.
  • Manage a high volume of concurrent deals with disciplined follow-up, accurate forecasting, and consistent attainment of monthly and quarterly targets.
  • Our team combines deep expertise in model innovation and systems engineering paired with a design-minded product engineering team to build and ship cutting edge models and experiences.

Requirements

  • Experience at an early-stage or Series A/B company as the sales motion scaled.
  • A technical degree (CS, Engineering, Math, etc.) or a solutions engineering background.
  • Strong discovery, objection handling, and negotiation skills, including usage-based pricing, rate cards, or consumption-based contracts, with a customer-first approach that sets up renewals and expansion.
  • Excellent organization and pipeline hygiene. You keep many deals moving at once without letting any slip.
  • Strong self-management. You organize your own day, prioritize without being told, and hold yourself accountable to your number with minimal oversight, even in an ambiguous early-stage environment.
  • High horsepower, a hungry work ethic, and a self-starter mindset. When something's unclear, you figure it out.
  • A competitive drive to win and a genuine motivation to grow the business.
  • Hands-on experience converting self-serve users to paid plans using product usage data.

Nice to have
