Founding Account Executive

MJL Recruiting & Consulting
San Francisco, CA

Our client, an AI-driven B2B data software startup, is seeking a Founding Account Executive.

They are looking for an entrepreneurial seller with 3+ years of experience who is ready to own revenue alongside the founders. This is a true early-stage role for someone comfortable building from zero to one and who has a proven track record of closing six-figure (or larger) enterprise deals.

This is a highly strategic position where you will help shape positioning, pricing, packaging, and the overall sales motion based on direct customer feedback.

What You'll Do

  • Own the full sales cycle from first conversation through closing complex enterprise deals
  • Translate the company's data and AI capabilities into clear, compelling ROI narratives for different customer segments
  • Partner closely with founders on go-to-market strategy, pricing, and packaging decisions
  • Build repeatable sales processes, systems, and playbooks from scratch
  • Drive pipeline generation and collaborate closely with SDRs to scale outbound efforts

What We're Looking For

  • 3+ years of experience in B2B SaaS or data sales
  • Experience selling data products (people data experience is a strong plus)
  • Track record of closing six-figure enterprise deals
  • Early-stage startup or founding sales experience preferred
  • Builder mindset with comfort creating processes and structure from the ground up

This is an opportunity for a high-agency seller who wants ownership, influence, and the ability to define revenue strategy at an AI-native company.
