## About the role

Encord is scaling rapidly, with strong product-market fit and a clear mandate to plant our flag in New York City. This is our first dedicated hire in the market — and the person who takes this role will be the founding presence that shapes how we show up on the East Coast.

## What they're looking for

- Excited by the idea of building something — not just hitting a number, but opening a market
- Highly ambitious, competitive, and motivated by outsized ownership and impact
- Entrepreneurial mindset — you move fast, figure things out, and don't wait to be told what to do
- Strong commercial intuition and the ability to earn trust with senior technical and business stakeholders
- Comfortable selling complex, technical products (or excited to ramp quickly in a deep technical domain)
- Hungry to grow into a leadership role as the NYC team scales around you
