About the role

After proving our product and operating model internationally, we’re expanding into the US from San Francisco. This role is about bringing Athena AI Agents there first. As our Founding Enterprise Account Executive in the US, you’ll be responsible for winning Athena’s first wave of customers: companies ready to rethink how work gets done with agentic AI. You’ll own deals from first conversation to close, while helping us learn which customers to target, how to position Athena and why we win.

What they're looking for

  • 4–6 years of B2B SaaS sales experience, with a consistent track record of hitting or exceeding quota in competitive environments
  • Experience closing $100k+ ARR deals and navigating complex buying processes with senior executives

  • Strong discovery skills and the ability to communicate effectively with both executive and operator audiences
  • Comfort operating with ambiguity, evolving messaging and changing priorities
  • A bias towards action — you’d rather test, learn and iterate than wait for perfect information

These teams don’t buy software for features,they buy leverage. The ability to run faster, cleaner, and with more control as complexity compounds.

To date, we’ve raised $20m in venture funding from some of the most respected founders, operators, and funds in technology: Lachy Groom (Physical Intelligence), Stewart Butterfield (Slack), Tobias Lütke (Shopify), Dylan...
