About this role
We’re looking for a collaborative and builder-oriented enterprise sales rep experienced at helping prospective customers at large companies navigate the evaluation, business case development, and procurement of transformative technology.
Your objective will be to help convert enterprise prospects (6k FTE, although tilted towards Fortune 1000) who are active in our trials or who request a sales demo from our website or within our product.

Your positivity, sense of curiosity, and ability to create champions from early adopters in the AI space will help shape our entire culture.
You'll be reporting to our Head of Sales.
