Job Description

We’re representing a venture-backed SaaS company with real product-market fit and a deeply technical offering in the B2C martech space. The business has hundreds of paying customers, strong recurring revenue, and a lean, proven team that’s now hiring its first sales hire to unlock the next phase of growth.

This is a foundational sales role for a smart, technical, and hungry Account Executive ready to own pipeline, close meaningful deals, and build alongside a high-velocity product team. You’ll be joining post-traction, pre-scale—when the upside is real and the work is high impact.

What You’ll Own

  • Run full-cycle sales across SMB and Mid-Market segments: outbound, inbound, demos, close

  • Lead deeply consultative discovery calls with both marketing and technical stakeholders

  • Deliver high-impact product demos with technical fluency

  • Influence GTM strategy, sales motion, and early process as the first AE

  • Collaborate directly with founders, engineers, and early customers

  • Act as a domain expert—learning and solving complex problems, not just pitching features

What We’re Looking For

  • 2–5 years in a quota-carrying AE role at a SaaS company

  • Experience selling technical software (martech, analytics, data tools, APIs, or similar)

  • Proven success in SMB/Mid-Market sales motions

  • Strong discovery, objection handling, and technical demo skills

  • Bachelor’s degree in a technical or quantitative field preferred

  • Based in NYC or willing to relocate; this is a fully in-office role

  • You’re not looking to manage a team yet—you want to close deals and build your name

Compensation & Benefits

  • Base Salary $115K–$125K

  • OTE $175K–$245K+ (uncapped, with aggressive accelerators post-quota)

  • Equity Significant early-stage grant—founding AE level

  • Commission Plan Quota is highly attainable, with top-tier upside for overperformance

  • Work Schedule Monday–Thursday: 8am–9pm, Friday: 8am–6pm (NYC, Hudson Square)

  • Visibility Work directly with the founding team and shape the revenue engine

  • Trajectory Path to leadership as the team grows—based on success, not tenure

What This Role Is Not

  • This is not a lifestyle sales role—it's a high-commitment, high-reward opportunity

  • Not a fit for candidates focused on people management or team-building out of the gate

  • Not for generalists—this role requires curiosity, technical rigor, and ownership

Interview Process

  • Step 1: Intro call — motivations, background, performance highlights

  • Step 2: Culture interview — past behavior and track record (topgrading)

  • Step 3: Case interview — mock discovery, technical objection handling, demo fluency

If you're looking for a career-defining role where your input matters, your results are rewarded, and your impact is visible every single day—this is it.
