About Hyperscale

Hyperscale is building AGI for physical operations, starting with trucking carriers. We're a small team of ex-Samsara engineers and operators deploying frontier agentic systems in the real world.

The result is a superagent that autonomously handles the highest-volume back-office workflows physical operations depend on: load coordination, scheduling, support, finance and billing, and more. It's live with some of the largest fleets in the US, running ~70% of these tasks on its own with strong customer satisfaction. We're backed by top investors and moving fast.

The Role

We're hiring a Founding Account Executive to build pipeline and run early-stage deals alongside the founders. You'll own the top and middle of the funnel - sourcing your own deals, prospecting, discovery, and demos - then partner with the founders to take deals across the line.

This is a great fit for an early-career rep who wants to sell on the cutting edge of real-world AI, learn enterprise motions directly from founders, and close the biggest deals of your career as we scale. You'll get real ownership of pipeline from day one and a front-row seat to how complex deals get done.

What You'll Do
  • Run discovery calls and early product demos with operations executives and leaders at trucking carriers

  • Source and generate your own pipeline through cold calls, email, and social outreach

  • Qualify opportunities and work later-stage meetings with the founders, staying involved through close

  • Keep a clean, healthy pipeline and consistently hit your activity and pipeline targets

  • Help build what you need to sell - iterate on decks, use cases, positioning - working directly with marketing, product, and engineering rather than waiting for a GTM machine to hand it to you

  • Feed what you learn from frontline conversations back into our pitch and product roadmap

  • Represent Hyperscale at industry events and conferences

Who You Are
  • 2-4 years of sales experience, including ~(1-2 years as an SDR/BDR and ~1 year as an AE)

  • Strong, consistent quota attainment

  • Experience sourcing your own deals end to end

  • Time at an early-stage company (pre-seed or seed ideal) - you enjoy ownership, building, and creative solutioning

  • Real phone chops - our buyers run their business on the phone, so this is a calling motion in addition to emailing and social media

  • Resourceful builder - comfortable creating the deck, defining the use case, and unblocking yourself by working cross-functionally

  • Technically curious and able to explain a sophisticated product simply

  • Self-starter who's comfortable with ambiguity and a fast-moving startup

Nice to Have
  • Experience selling technical or B2B SaaS products

  • Exposure to AI/ML or other emerging technologies

  • Background or interest in logistics, trucking, fleet operations, or supply chain

Location

San Francisco preferred (in-person). We move quickly and value tight feedback loops across sales, product, engineering, and customers.

Why Hyperscale
  • Get in early on a category-defining product with an elite team

  • Real product in production with major US fleets

  • Clear ROI and strong metrics already working in the wild

  • Build the sales team and culture from day one, with a clear path to sales leadership as we scale

  • Direct access to founders, product, and customers with immediate impact

  • Backed by top VCs and growing quickly - doubling the team this year
