Job Description

About Legible

Legible is a fast-growing vertical SaaS company helping organizations make sense of state-level legislation in real time. Our AI-powered platform gives government affairs teams, lobbyists, trade associations, and policy professionals instant clarity into what’s happening across states — without the manual tracking, noise, or guesswork.

We’re at an exciting inflection point:
• Excellent early traction. Over 120 paying customers!
• Strong product-market fit
• Very high demo-to-close conversion rate
• $2.6M seed funding from a supportive VC partner

Demand is there. Now we’re ready to scale it.

The Opportunity

We’re hiring our first dedicated sales hire — a Founding Account Executive who will own revenue growth and help build the sales motion alongside the CEO.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role for a proven SaaS seller who wants to move earlier, take real ownership, and help turn early traction into a scalable, repeatable growth engine.

You’ll be responsible for closing deals and shaping how sales gets done at Legible.

What You’ll Do

• Own the full sales cycle: outbound prospecting, discovery, demo, close, and expansion
• Drive new logo growth across state-level government affairs, policy, and advocacy organizations
• Convert inbound, PLG, and referral-driven opportunities at a high clip
• Build a pipeline through targeted outbound to high-value accounts
• Partner directly with the CEO on messaging, pricing, deal strategy, and process
• Help design and refine the sales playbook (stages, handoffs, tooling, metrics)
• Turn what’s working today into something repeatable and scalable
• Lay the foundation for a future sales team you can help lead and grow

What Success Looks Like

Within 12 months, you will have:

• Closed 100+ new customer logos
• Established a clear, scalable sales motion
• Increased the volume of quality customer conversations significantly
• Proven yourself as a trusted revenue leader within the company
• Position yourself to step into a sales leadership role as the team scales

Who We’re Looking For

• 4–8 years of experience closing SaaS deals (mid-market preferred)
• Experience at a more established SaaS company; early-stage/startup exposure is a plus
• Comfortable owning the full sales cycle end-to-end
• High agency, high intelligence, and a strong work ethic
• Strong point of view on sales process and pipeline management
• Consultative seller who can navigate multiple stakeholders
• Exposure to government, public sector, or policy-adjacent selling is a plus (not required)
• Excited to work in-person with a sharp, fast-moving, high-performing team in Austin

Compensation & Upside

  • OTE: $120,000 – $240,000 (50/50 base + commission)

  • Strong Equity Compensation Package

  • Meaningful upside for high performers

  • Clear path toward sales leadership

  • Backed by strong investors with the ability to raise additional capital

Why This Role Is Different

This isn’t a “plug into a machine” sales job.
It’s a builder role at a company with real traction, real customers, and real demand — where your work directly shapes the future of the business.

If you’re a strong seller looking for your next big step, this is it.
