About the role
AI Sales Assistant to increase playbook adoption and win more deals
Responsibilities
- Win clients. Convert your existing book and open new accounts — fast-growing, VC-backed startups hiring for hard-to-fill technical roles.
- Own those accounts end to end: relationships, expansion, renewals.
- Run full-cycle searches with our tools multiplying your output — your job is judgment, negotiation, and closing.
- Shape the product. As a founding recruiter, your feedback directly drives what we build.
Qualifications
- Agency, freelance, or founder background — 5+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting at an agency, on your own desk, or running your own firm.
- Relationships with partners at top VCs and experience sourcing clients through portfolio referrals
- Startup + technical depth — you've placed founding engineers, AI/ML and deep tech talent, or early GTM hires at Series A–C startups and know what great looks like at that stage.
- Proven BD ability — founders and hiring managers respond when you reach out, and $500K+ in annual billings you personally generated. You're as comfortable selling a search as running one.
