Fresh off our $14M Series A, funded by the world's best construction-tech investors, we're entering our next phase of growth and building out the sales team, with AI at the center of everything we build next. ## THE ROLE As an early Account Executive at Rebar you’ll pair real selling craft with a builder's mindset, partnering directly with our founders and serving as the bridge between customers and product. The edge here isn't a script. It's that you'll run a prospect's actual plans through the product live on the call, and show them their own takeoff in real time.

This role is for a strong closer who wants to help modernize one of the last untouched sectors at massive scale. ## YOU WILL ## DRIVE REVENUE AND CUSTOMER GROWTH - Own the full sales cycle: prospecting, demos, follow-ups, pricing, and close - Run live demos that prove the product on the customer's own drawings - Develop relationships across HVAC, electrical, and plumbing reps, contractors, and distributors - Provide feedback to leadership on pricing, product positioning, and GTM strategy ## BECOME THE VOICE OF THE CUSTOMER - Understand the takeoff, estimating, and quoting workflows better than anyone - Turn customer pain points into clear product requirements - Work closely with product and engineering to help shape the roadmap - Serve as a thought partner to the founders on positioning and pricing ## WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR ## REQUIRED - 3–10+ years selling complex, workflow-heavy products, with a proven track record of closing - Comfortable running high-trust, multi-call, multi-stakeholder sales cycles - Credibility with skeptical, operator-led buyers, you can hold the room and earn trust fast - Genuine appetite to go deep on the trade: takeoffs, estimating, and quoting workflows - Comfortable in early-stage environments: scrappy, creative, and fast - Exceptional communication and customer-facing skills ## STRONG PLUS (SHORTENS YOUR RAMP) - Experience selling into HVAC, electrical, or plumbing from the trades side or the software side - Worked in construction and then moved into construction-tech - Understanding of mechanical drawings, equipment schedules, and plan sets ## COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS - Salary: Competitive base and OTE - Equity: meaningful grant, aligned with your background - Benefits: medical, dental, vision - Perks: free lunches and dinners This is a full-time, onsite role in NYC's Flatiron District, steps from Madison Square Park and Union Square. ## About Rebar ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Rebar builds an AI operating system for HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades, starting with lightning-fast takeoff and estimating software. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series A) - **Headquarters**: New York, NY, USA - **Founded**: 2024 - **Founders**: Evan Brown (CEO) and Andrew Schwartz (CPO & Co-Founder) ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Construction technology (HVAC, plumbing, electrical subcontractor software) - **Target customers**: B2B – HVAC rep firms, distributors, mechanical contractors, and subcontractors - **Mission or purpose**: To modernize the trades with AI-powered tools that reduce manual estimating work, helping pros move faster from takeoff to bid. ## Products & Services - **Rebar AI Takeoff Software**: Hyper-specialized HVAC estimating software that uses AI to automatically mark equipment, detect rooms, and summarize addenda, cutting takeoff time by 60% ([withrebar.ai](https://www.withrebar.ai/)). - **Performance Analytics**: Dashboards for companies to track bid volume, team estimating speed, and product preferences in their market ([withrebar.ai](https://www.withrebar.ai/)). - **Basis of Design**: Identifies what equipment engineers are specifying in a given market ([withrebar.ai](https://www.withrebar.ai/)). - **Data Security & Customization**: Isolated data per organization;
