  • Proven track record of high-volume sales hiring, especially Account Executives
  • Experience hiring technical sellers, ideally for developer tools, infrastructure, or AI

  • Strong organization, with the ability to run multiple searches at once
  • Clear, direct written and verbal communication

BENEFITS

  • Competitive compensation, including meaningful equity
  • (U.S. only) 100% coverage of medical, dental, and vision insurance for employee and dependents
