About the role

Inbound has carried this business. We booked over 400 demos last month without anyone sourcing a single one. That's a good problem, and it's also the reason this role exists — the accounts worth winning next are not going to raise their hand, and the category is being decided right now.

What they're looking for

  • You can sell to a technical buyer. CTOs and CIOs, security review, migration planning. You've been in those rooms yourself, recently enough that you'd be credible in one next week
  • You've hired senior reps who source their own pipeline, and they worked out. You can describe your bar, and you can describe a hire that didn't work and what you missed
  • You've run both motions at once. Velocity and upmarket in the same org, without letting the second cannibalize the first
  • You're commercially fluent. Segmentation, quota modeling, capacity planning, and headcount allocation are things you've owned rather than inherited
  • You operate at early-stage pace. You'd rather run the deal today than schedule a process review about it
  • You're AI-native. You use these tools to run your own work, and you can sell a product whose value depends on customers trusting it with their email and calendar

We're hiring a VP of Sales to build the outbound motion, move the business upmarket, and grow the team that does both. Today it's three to five reps running a high-velocity transactional motion against inbound. Where we're going is different: larger commercial and...
