## About the role

Own revenue and team execution for the Commercial pod — two today, scaling toward 7+ Commercial AEs — including forecasting, pipeline hygiene, and deal visibility across long, non-linear sales cycles. Recruit, hire, and ramp Commercial AEs against the Enterprise Account Executive – Commercial & National Accounts profile, building the hiring bar, onboarding, and enablement for a segment with no established playbook.

## What they're looking for

- Emerging Sales Leader: 5+ years in enterprise SaaS sales, with 1–2+ years of management or team-lead experience (player-coach background a plus)
- 0-to-1 Builder: Comfortable standing up a new sales motion and team from a base of two reps, without an existing playbook to lean on
- Strategic, Land-and-Expand Seller: Skilled at navigating multi-stakeholder deals — Architects, Engineers, Owners, GCs, Real Estate — and turning a single initial deal into full stakeholder-network penetration
- AEC/Commercial Industry Knowledge: Experience selling into commercial real estate, architecture/engineering firms, retail or restaurant development, or construction-tech strongly preferred — this is not a home services background
- Data-Driven Operator: Fluent in CRM systems, sales automation tools, and performance analytics, comfortable building new comp and quota structures for a non-standard, LVC-heavy revenue model
- Problem-Solver & Storyteller: Surfaces operational pain points and builds compelling, ROI-backed business cases for enterprise and architecture/engineering-firm stakeholders
