Founding Account Executive - Physical AI

Job description

This is not a seat on a machine someone else built. There is no playbook to inherit. You will write one.

Job responsibilities

  • Open doors that don't exist yet. Find the labs, integrators, OEMs, and operators building physical AI, and get into the room. Cold, warm, conference floor, group chat — whatever it takes.
  • Turn conversations into partnerships. Take an early signal and carry it all the way to a signed, shipped, referenceable deployment. Not a logo slide — a working thing in the world.
  • Find the shape of the market. Notice which pitch lands and which dies. Write down why. Change what we say next week. Repeat until it's a repeatable motion, then hand it to the next person we hire.

Job requirements

  • Experience in sales, partnerships, or account management of a highly technical product — at a B2B SaaS, frontier AI, physical AI startup, or data collection company.
  • Experience working with both startups and enterprise companies, and comfort navigating both fast and longer sales cycles.
  • Experience negotiating and closing deals from all sizes
