You’ll be responsible for generating pipeline, running technical evaluations and proofs of concept alongside our sales engineers, and driving deals through security and legal review to close. This role is high-impact, high-autonomy, and deeply consultative. You’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with Leadership, Product, and Engineering to solve real problems for your customers.

- Health & Wellness: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
- Future-Proofing: Easy-to-manage 401(k) plan with diverse investment options

- Team Connection: Team offsites and regular social events
- The Office Experience: A stocked kitchen with snacks and drinks, close to the Light Rail
- Hybrid Schedule: Flexible, work-from-home Fridays
What You’ll Do
- Own the new revenue goal from both inbound and outbound-sourced opportunities.
- Prospect across multiple channels to build and maintain sufficient pipeline coverage
- Develop a deep technical and operational understanding of your customers’ businesses
- Run a full-cycle solution-sales process with strong pipeline hygiene and accurate forecasting
- Travel up to 30% for customer meetings and industry events
What We’re Looking For
Must-Haves:
- 2+ years of consistent quota attainment selling technical products.
- Proven ability to understand technical requirements and craft solutions across multiple products
- Strong presentation skills, especially in multi-stakeholder meetings
- Comfort operating in a fast-paced startup environment with a genuine interest in technology
Nice-to-Haves:
- Working knowledge of APIs, software development, or other technical solutions
