  • Initiate and lead discovery sessions with key technical and business decision-makers to evaluate core business challenges and map them to platform solutions.
  • Orchestrate end-to-end sales campaigns—from initial qualification and solution demonstrations through technical evaluations, executive alignment, commercial negotiations, and close.
  • Identify, target, and gain access to appropriate key leaders in prospective accounts, building and cultivating a robust network of executive decision-makers.
  • Partner closely with Marketing, Demand Generation, SDRs, Solutions Engineers, and Channel Partners to systematically uncover, accelerate, and win new logos.
  • Maintain rigorous pipeline hygiene, accurately manage deal stages, and forecast quarterly revenue achievements with precision.
  • Travel as necessary to conduct face-to-face prospect meetings, attend regional field events, and participate in team offsites.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of proven success in a SaaS/Cloud B2B sales environment, with a strong, verifiable track record of top-tier performance acquiring net-new logos.
  • Exceptional ability to build credibility with technical audiences; comfortable conducting discovery with developers and articulating technical value to Product, Engineering, and CTO executives.
  • Advanced proficiency in structured sales methodologies (we use APEX Sales Methodology).
  • Proven track record of pipeline development—effectively converting inbound leads while maintaining strong outbound prospecting momentum.
  • Exceptional executive presence and pitch skills, capable of delivering compelling product demonstrations and value-based business cases to C-suite executives.
  • BS/BA degree or equivalent practical experience; located near an office hub or in-region preferred.

Benefits

  • Health, dental and vision insurance
  • 401(k)
  • Flexible spending account
  • Paid leave (including PTO and parental leave)
