  • Manage and close deals independently. You should be available for occasional early morning or late evening calls to accommodate international clients.
  • Collaborate with internal teams to create content, processes and AI-powered solutions for scalable support of corporate clients.
  • Act as the voice of corporate clients internally, gathering feedback and insights to inform platform development and feature prioritization alongside the Product and Engineering teams.

Here are the skills you should have:

Familiarity and experience with AI-powered tools such as Claude Code or Cursor, having built or prototyped software for personal or professional use.
  • Strong organizational and systems thinking: Familiarity with large organizations, enterprise sales processes, and complex operational systems.
  • Excellent communication skills: Outstanding written and spoken English with the ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to diverse audiences (technical and non-technical). A natural relationship-builder who can connect with clients, understand their needs, and build trust.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset: Self-starter who is willing to do whatever it takes to get things done and thrives in ambiguity and a fast-paced startup environment.
  • Project management: Demonstrated ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and drive them to completion.
  • Experience: 8 or more years or work experience, of which at least 3 in quota-carrying roles involving inter-organizational relationship building, such as partnerships, business development, sales, or similar functions.

Bonus if you have any of the following:

  • Previous sales or business development experience, particularly in B2B SaaS, education technology, or corporate training.
  • Experience selling training and educational solutions into enterprise clients.
  • Familiarity with CRM systems and sales automation tools.

  • We care deeply about our learners: We let our learner's needs guide our actions and decisions and put our mission ahead of ourselves.
  • We are great at what we do: We strive for excellence in all dimensions, especially in the quality of the content we create and the people we hire.
  • We default to action: We are comfortable acting with limited information and taking ownership of our decisions.
  • We ask why: We ask the hard questions and are open to being in the wrong. We advocate for the best ideas, not our ideas.
  • We are honest and authentic: We are transparent as an organization, over-communicate to build trust, and share our failures just as we do our successes.
  • We do this together: We help each other grow and succeed and have fun at work, even in a remote environment.

We Offer:

  • DeepLearning.AI offers a comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, and vision coverage, a 401(k) plan, a monthly education stipend, flexible PTO, and much more.
