- Contribute immediate revenue impact
In your first 12 months, you will:
- Consistently hit or exceed your quota
- Become a product expert and strategic advisor to prospects

✅ What We’re Looking For
- 4–8 years of SaaS sales experience, preferably in a closing role (AE, Sr. AE, or similar)
- Strong track record in outbound selling and hunting new business
- Proven ability to close deals in the $20K–$100K+ range
- Experience selling to the corporate world and navigating multi-threaded deals
- Entrepreneurial mindset – you thrive in fast-moving, self-starter environments
- US-based, or significant experience selling into the US market
- Familiarity or interest in the sales tech space is a big plus
