What You'll Do

Manage sales from outbound prospecting and discovery through product demonstrations, negotiation, and close.

Research target accounts, run outbound campaigns, and build pipeline independently.

Share customer needs and pain points with product and engineering teams.

Evidence of pursuing sales through employment, internships, campus sales roles, SDR work, or self-directed outreach.

Experience building pipeline or sales processes from scratch in a startup, small business, or similarly lean environment.

A hunter mindset, strong communication skills, sound judgment, and comfort working independently in an ambiguous, fast-paced setting.

Interest in or exposure to HR, finance, or AI is a plus. HR technology, direct sales, and enterprise deal experience are also helpful.

Authorized to work in the United States without visa sponsorship.
