About The Position

Our partner is a Series A, AI-native B2B SaaS company building software that automates one of the most critical workflows for modern finance teams. Backed by top-tier institutional and operator investors, the company is entering its next phase of growth following a major product evolution and go-to-market reset. The team is lean, highly experienced, and deeply entrepreneurial, with a strong presence in New York and an established global engineering organization. The culture emphasizes ownership, collaboration, and respect—high standards without ego. This is a Founding Account Executive role in the truest sense: new product, new positioning, and a rebuilt go-to-market motion. You will be one of the first AEs selling the company’s next-generation platform, helping define how the product is taken to market and how deals are won at scale. The role is a pure closing position , supported by inbound demand and a growing SDR function. You will work closely with leadership, product, and customer teams to develop repeatable playbooks in a fast-moving, zero-to-one environment. For the right candidate, this role offers meaningful ownership, influence, and a clear path into senior individual-contributor or team-building leadership over time.
