Viggle AI•Toronto, ON

1d•CA$115,000•Hybrid

About The Position

We're hiring a B2B Sales Manager, based in our Toronto office (with travel to clients and industry events in the United States), to drive enterprise and API adoption of Viggle's four product lines — Viggle Video, 3D Character, Mocap, and Text-to-Motion — within the gaming and interactive entertainment industry. This is a hands-on, full-cycle sales role: you'll own prospecting, pipeline building, deal negotiation, and closing with game studios, publishers, content platforms, and developer teams. You know the gaming industry from the inside — you understand how studios evaluate tools, how production pipelines work, and who the decision-makers are. You'll be Viggle's face to the US market and a key voice feeding market insight back into our product roadmap.

Requirements

4+ years of B2B sales experience, with a proven track record of closing deals in the gaming industry (game studios, publishers, or gaming technology/middleware vendors).
Strong understanding of game development and content production pipelines, particularly 3D art, animation, video, and/or motion capture workflows.
Experience selling technical products — APIs, SaaS, middleware, developer tools, or content solutions — to technical and creative buyers.
Demonstrated ability to run a full sales cycle independently — prospecting, demoing, negotiating, and closing.
Excellent communication and presentation skills; comfortable presenting to studio executives, product leaders, and engineering teams.
Self-starter who thrives in a fast-moving startup environment with minimal supervision.
Based in our Toronto office and able to travel to LA; authorized to work in Canada, and travel occasionally in the United States.

Nice To Haves

Experience selling API or developer platform products with usage-based pricing models.
Existing network of relationships with game studios, publishers, content platforms, or 3D/animation production teams.
Prior experience selling animation tools, game engines, middleware, mocap solutions, generative AI products, or other content creation technology (e.g., Unity, Unreal, Autodesk, Vicon, Xsens ecosystems).
Familiarity with AI-powered video and motion generation tools and the emerging AI + gaming landscape.
Ability to speak credibly about API integration concepts (endpoints, rate limits, usage metering) with technical buyers.
Experience at an early-stage startup, building sales processes and playbooks from scratch.
Track record of consistently meeting or exceeding quota.

Responsibilities

Own the full B2B sales cycle — from prospecting and qualification to demos, negotiation, and closing — for Viggle's four API product lines: Viggle Video, 3D Character, Mocap, and Text-to-Motion.
Build and manage a pipeline of game studios, publishers, content platforms, animation studios, and developer teams across the US market.
Drive API adoption: work with prospects' technical teams on integration evaluation, proof-of-concepts, and usage-based commercial structures.
Develop deep product knowledge and deliver compelling technical and API demos in partnership with our product and engineering teams.
Understand client production pipelines (game engines, animation workflows, content platforms) and translate their pain points into solution proposals.
Negotiate enterprise agreements, API pricing, and licensing terms; coordinate with internal legal and finance teams on contracting.
Represent Viggle at industry events, conferences, and trade shows (e.g., GDC, SIGGRAPH) to build brand presence and generate leads.
Maintain accurate CRM records, sales forecasts, and pipeline reporting for leadership.
Gather and relay market intelligence, competitive insights, and customer feedback to inform product and go-to-market strategy.
