About the role
- We see digital interaction as a creative practice, not a static broadcast.
- Finding and connecting with your audience takes unique content and constant iteration.
- As AI makes basic video generation faster and tactics easier to copy, hyper-personalized, interactive digital human experiences are the only lasting advantage.
Responsibilities
- Act as a founding GTM pillar in the US: Own and close net-new business end-to-end, helping us establish a strong foothold in the North American market.
- Prospect into target accounts (forward-thinking brands, agencies, creators) and build a robust pipeline from the ground up.
- Lead consultative discovery that helps early-adopter prospects see the ROI and creative possibilities of our platform.
- Help build our US sales playbook, processes, and culture as we scale.
- Use AI creatively, whether to generate personalized outreach videos using our own product or to improve your daily workflows.
- Proven ability to hunt and build pipeline from scratch, not just manage inbound leads. You thrive in a "Zero to One" environment.
- We believe we're building the future of what great salespeople look like in a post-AI world.
Requirements
- 4+ years in a closing role (AE, Senior AE, or Sales Leader) with a track record of carrying and exceeding quota.
- Experience closing new-logo deals in the $50K-$100K range with multiple stakeholders in a consultative, solutions-oriented selling motion.
- Experience with a formal sales methodology (we don't care which one, but you have a structured approach to running deals).
Compensation
- OTE: $170K-$280K | Commission Eligible
Benefits
- the massive upside, equity potential, and creative freedom of an early-stage go-to-market team, completely free from the existential financial dread that usually comes with it.
- Creative and resourceful, whether that's finding clever ways to use AI video tools in your own work or learning and pitching our platform's exciting use cases.
- You're an entrepreneurial communicator who can hold a room (or a Zoom call) without dominating it.
Company info
- Our mission is to help organizations turn any engagement idea into an interactive reality.
- We operate with the speed, agility, and culture of a Day 1 team, while being exceptionally well-capitalized and deeply resourced.
- We have bypassed the typical startup grind of constant fundraising and survival anxiety.
- Instead, we have immense R&D power, cutting-edge AI infrastructure, and long-term financial stability to focus entirely on one thing: market execution and product innovation.
- We have perfected our digital human and interactive live-streaming technology.
- Now, we are aggressively launching our go-to-market motion in the US-and we are looking for builders to lead the charge.
