About The Position

As an Account Executive, you’ll run the full sales cycle, from prospecting and outbound campaigns to navigating complex stakeholder conversations and closing small to mid ACV deals. This is a hands-on, entrepreneurial role where you’ll work closely with the founders, GTM leadership, and product team to shape our sales motion. This isn’t a plug-and-play sales job; this is a rare opportunity to lead the charge in a market that’s rapidly modernizing its hiring stack.

• You’re curious and product-savvy, you enjoy demoing and helping prospects see “aha!” moments
• You understand the buyer psyche, how decisions are made, and how to build trust with founders, talent leaders, and recruiters.
• You’re analytical and coachable, you learn from every deal, and you aren’t afraid to ask for help.

Nice To Haves

• You’ve worked in early-stage, fast-growing SaaS companies
