Role details
Job description
Hubble Network was founded with the intention of delivering on the promise of what Internet-of-Things (IoT) was supposed to be. We're building a global Bluetooth® network dedicated to machine-to-machine connectivity. We differentiate ourselves as the first modem-less and gateway-less, direct-to-satellite network from off-the-shelf Bluetooth® Low Energy chips. Hubble is ideal for applications in logistics, AgTech, and maritime where economies of scale for volume consumer and enterprise asset tracking is a priority. Our goal is to be the first billion-endpoint-connected network in the world.
Hubble is an early-stage, venture-backed startup supported by some of the best investors in the world. In their previous lives, the founding team has been successful in raising $100s of millions in venture funding, developing the Amazon Sidewalk network, launching billions of dollars of space assets, and leading their teams to successful exits, both through acquisition and IPO. We are now looking to bring on talented team members who are the best at what they do to help us make Hubble a reality for the world.
This is a hybrid, full-time position based in San Francisco, CA.

These are long, technical campaigns. You'll orchestrate the right internal resources at the right moment — Solutions Engineers, product, and executive leadership — to move deals through technical evaluations, proof-of-concept programs, and multi-year commercial negotiations. You'll report to the Chief Business Officer. Your territory comprises named accounts, and it is greenfield and an established book. The role involves approximately 25% travel for customer meetings, partner meetings, and industry events.
