- Manage every stage of the sales process, from first contact through discovery, demonstration, trial, negotiation and signing.

- Present a technical product to revenue-focused teams and explain its value in plain business language.

- Experience selling automation or AI-enabled tools to go-to-market teams.

- Experience closing mid-market deals with sales cycles ranging from days to a couple of months.

- Experience at a high-growth startup or scale-up, including an early move from SDR into an AE role.

- A driven, high-ownership mindset and comfort with ambiguity in an early-stage environment.

Bonus points

- A visibly competitive background, such as competitive athletics.

- A strong academic record.
