About the Role

This is a founding sales role at an early-stage AI healthtech startup, meaning you will help shape the go-to-market motion from the ground up.

  • Conduct discovery calls and thorough needs analyses to understand each prospect's recruitment challenges.
  • Lead contract negotiations and close mid-market and enterprise deals with C-level and senior stakeholders.
  • Maintain accurate pipeline data, forecasts, and activity records in CRM and sales tooling.
  • Partner closely with the founding team to iterate on messaging, positioning, and sales process as the company scales.

What We're Looking For

  • 3 or more years of experience as an Account Executive, Sales Development Representative, or in a similar direct sales closing role.
  • Demonstrated track record of meeting or exceeding sales quotas on mid-market or enterprise deals.
  • Experience managing a full sales pipeline from initial outreach through signed contract.
  • Proficiency with CRM software and sales tools for pipeline management and forecasting.
  • Strong skills in discovery, needs analysis, and consultative selling.
  • Background in B2B SaaS or enterprise software sales is a plus.
  • Experience selling to C-suite executives or senior organizational decision-makers is a plus.
