Job description

About the Role

This is a founding enterprise sales role at an early-stage, AI-native B2B SaaS company building a pricing optimization platform for modern software businesses. You'll work directly alongside the founders to establish and scale the enterprise sales motion — owning the full cycle from first outreach to close, while shaping the playbooks and commercial strategy that will define how the company grows.

What You'll Do

  • Own the full enterprise sales cycle end-to-end — from self-sourced prospecting through discovery, negotiation, and close.
  • Run consultative discovery with senior stakeholders including CFOs, CROs, CPOs, and heads of monetization.
  • Carry and accurately forecast an ambitious revenue quota while maintaining healthy pipeline coverage week to week.
  • Design, document, and iterate the enterprise playbook covering outreach, qualification, deal structure, commercial terms, and close mechanics.
  • Partner directly with founders on GTM strategy, ICP definition, and positioning, feeding market intelligence back into product and sales.
  • Build CRM discipline and a consistent operating rhythm for pipeline hygiene, prioritization, and clean forecasting.
  • Leverage AI agents and sales-automation workflows to handle repeatable buyer-journey tasks, reserving human judgment for high-stakes deal moments.
  • Serve as a trusted advisor to customers and translate live deal feedback into actionable input for product and engineering.

What We're Looking For

  • 5–8+ years of enterprise B2B tech sales experience with a consistent track record of closing high-ACV deals end-to-end.
  • Proven ability to self-source pipeline and exceed revenue targets in a fast-paced, high-ambiguity environment.
  • Strong experience navigating multi-stakeholder enterprise deals and building consensus up to the C-suite.
  • Proficiency with CRM and sales-engagement platforms (e.g., Salesforce, Gong) and experience building automations for repeatable sales tasks.
  • Comfort selling in an AI-native environment and directing AI-driven workflows within the sales process.
  • Strategic, analytical approach to market assessment paired with creative, tactical execution.
  • Professional fluency in English.
  • Experience with pricing, monetization, or CPQ/billing solutions is a plus.

Compensation & Benefits

Base salary range: $200,000–$250,000 USD annually (plus variable/commission). Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.

Location
