About the Company We’re a venture‑backed AI SaaS startup building a new category in the post‑sales and onboarding space.

Our platform uses AI voice and video agents to guide users through complex SaaS products in real time, continuously and personally. Instead of static onboarding flows or bloated post‑sales teams, we help B2B SaaS companies activate users faster, reduce churn, and drive revenue efficiency without scaling headcount.

We’re early‑stage, product‑led, and backed by experienced SaaS operators and investors who believe post‑sales is the next major lever for growth.

About the Role This is our first dedicated GTM hire. As a Founding Account Executive, you’ll work directly with the founders to define how we go to market, who we sell to, and how deals are won. This is not a playbook role. You’ll help build it. You’ll sell to senior Product, RevOps, Customer Success, and GTM leaders at modern B2B SaaS companies and help shape how a new category lands in the market.

This is a hybrid role based in San Francisco.

What You’ll Do

Own the full sales cycle, from outbound to close and expansion

Build pipeline from zero through creative outbound and ICP experimentation

Run discovery and navigate complex, multi‑stakeholder deals

Develop talk tracks, qualification frameworks, and objection handling

Sell cross‑functional value around activation, retention, and revenue efficiency

Feed customer insights directly into product, positioning, and roadmap decisions

What We’re Looking For

3-5+ years as a quota‑carrying AE at a fast‑growing B2B SaaS or AI company

Proven track record closing mid‑market or enterprise deals ($50k–$100k+ ACV)

Strong hunter mentality, comfortable with outbound and ambiguity

Experience selling into Product, RevOps, Customer Success, or GTM leaders

Thrives in early‑stage environments with high ownership and low process

Experience with PLG or PLG‑to‑Sales motions

Bonus Experience with onboarding, RevOps, customer success tooling, or post‑sales platforms

Why This Is Compelling

First AE hire with real ownership and influence

Direct partnership with founders

Opportunity to help define a new AI SaaS category

Strong product, clear pain point, and early customer traction
