About the role
Sardine is hiring an Account Executive for the crypto vertical to own new business, build pipeline through conference presence, and manage multi-stakeholder crypto-native deals leveraging Sardine’s full-stack compliance platform.
Responsibilities
- Build and maintain a qualified pipeline across crypto-native account segments. Conference presence is the primary channel. You will be on the floor at Consensus, Token2049, Permissionless, and comparable events, developing relationships that convert to pipeline.
- Run multi-threaded discovery sessions with compliance, risk, legal, and technical buyers simultaneously.
- Position Sardine as a full-stack compliance and onboarding orchestration platform. Speak to AML/TM, KYC/KYB, sanctions, and device intelligence as integrated surfaces, not add-ons.
- Structure and negotiate complex, multi-module platform deals. Work with Solutions Engineering on technical scoping, and with the GM on commercial structure, pricing, and contract terms.
- Use regulatory forcing functions including MiCA, the GENIUS Act, and BCB Resolution 520 as deal urgency where they apply.
- Feed vertical market intelligence back to the GM and product teams: competitor moves, product gap patterns, deal structure objections.
- Collaborate cross-functionally within Sardine to close deals and provide market feedback from the crypto segment.
Qualifications
- 5+ years of B2B SaaS sales experience with at least 2 to 3 years selling into crypto-native companies
- A network at the compliance, risk, and product leadership level inside crypto exchanges, custodians, wallets, or stablecoin platforms
- Working fluency in AML/TM, KYC/KYB, and sanctions as they apply to crypto
- Demonstrated ability to run multi-threaded, multi-month sales cycles with multiple internal stakeholders on both sides of the deal
- Experience structuring and closing platform deals: multi-module, multi-year
- Willingness to travel to crypto industry conferences and client sites
- Ability to work with a GM who owns deal strategy and an SE team who supports technical scoping
- Excellent communication, negotiation, and writing skills
- Proven ability to work across a matrixed, globally distributed organization
