    Description

    About the Role

    This is a build-the-engine-from-scratch opportunity at a well-backed, early-stage AI infrastructure company building graph-native context and memory for AI agents. The platform delivers persistent context via a GraphDB on object storage — with semantic search, git-style temporal versioning, and entity resolution — purpose-built for modern AI workloads.

    You will be the first GTM hire, sitting directly next to the CEO on deal strategy and positioning, and the first person accountable to a revenue number. GTM spans three lanes: enterprise anchor deals, pilot programs, and PLG self-serve. The ICP is Directors of Engineering and Heads of AI at seed-to-Series D AI companies.

    If you've wanted to build a GTM motion from zero at a company with genuine technical differentiation, this is that role.

    What You'll Do

    • Own end-to-end pipeline: sourcing, qualifying, closing, and expanding deals across all GTM lanes

    • Run outbound to Directors of Engineering and Heads of AI at seed-to-Series D AI companies

    • Drive enterprise deal cycles from first call to signed contract

    • Design and iterate on the GTM motion — identifying what works, what doesn't, and how to scale it

    • Collaborate closely with the CEO on positioning, deal strategy, and ICP refinement

    • Align activity across enterprise anchors, pilots, and PLG self-serve in parallel

    What We're Looking For

    Required:

    • Early-stage GTM experience with direct, end-to-end revenue ownership — ideally at a developer tools or infrastructure company

    • Proven track record sourcing, qualifying, negotiating, and closing enterprise deals with multi-stakeholder cycles

    • Outbound prospecting experience targeting engineering leadership at AI/ML companies

    • Technical enough to have credible conversations with engineering leaders

    • Builder mentality: you create structure, you don't follow it

    • Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to craft compelling messaging and value propositions

    • Ability to work in-person in San Francisco

    Nice to Have:

    • Prior experience selling to AI engineering teams

    • Experience running PLG and enterprise motions simultaneously

    • Existing network in the Bay Area AI/ML ecosystem

    Compensation & Benefits

    • Salary: $120,000 – $200,000 annually

    • Meaningful equity — early employee ownership in a well-differentiated product

    • Flexible PTO

    • Learning budget: books, courses, conferences, and compute

    • Wellness programs and daily meals in the office

    • Top-tier hardware and software

    • Periodic team offsites

    Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.
