## About the role

Our CEO is running founder-led sales, and it's working: seven-figure revenue within months of launch, multi-year enterprise contracts. The constraint now isn't demand, it's bandwidth. You take the weight of running those deals off the CEO's plate: the pipeline, the prep, the process, the follow-through that turns a great founder conversation into a signed contract.

## What they're looking for

- Experience in a high-performance commercial seat: a BDR or seller in a strong B2B software sales org who's learned the craft or a VC/banking analyst who's been running exec processes and wants operating experience with real ownership
- Full-cycle closing experience
- Proof you can generate, not just manage: you've sourced your own pipeline or run your own processes without marketing or a team feeding you and you can walk us through exactly how you did that
- The "no leads, no excuses" mindset: handed a quota and zero support, you start running experiments, not waiting for enablement
- Process discipline so you can keep dozens of threads moving through structure, not memory, and nothing falls through the cracks
- Polish and credibility with senior executives: our buyers are CISOs and VPs at large enterprises, and you'll be in those rooms from week one
