## About the role

We're looking for a leader to build and grow the Startups Activations team. This team is the voice of Vercel to the earliest-stage startups, helping founders make great infrastructure decisions from day one and land on Vercel before they ever need to migrate. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- 5+ years of experience in SaaS sales or startup go-to-market, including 2+ years managing quota-carrying sellers
- A track record of hiring and developing early-career talent and people from non-traditional backgrounds into top performers
- Experience building or running a high-velocity sales motion with volume, speed, and discipline
- Comfort talking with technical founders about architecture and tradeoffs. You don't need to be an engineer, but you need credibility with engineers
- Real curiosity about AI-native development and the tools shaping how startups build and ship
- A builder's mindset: you like creating systems, not just running them, and you balance strategy with hands-on execution
