- You have a “can do” attitude. Our teams produce high-quality work on quick timelines. Owning a problem doesn’t scare you, it empowers you to take full responsibility for achieving our mission.
- You bring positive energy. You’re optimistic about the future and determined to get there.
- You’re never tired of learning and growing.
- You value direct communication and seek out feedback
- You’re both an active communicator and an eager listener.
What You’ll Need
- At least 3+ years of full-cycle B2B sales experience, preferably selling subscription-based products or services.

- Demonstrated expertise in startup/scaleup sales (nice-to-have).
- Experience selling to marketing, UX, product, or research teams (nice-to-have).
Practical Details
- Location: This is a remote, full-time position from either America or Europe. (US West Coast: you will have to be available from 6 AM Pacific Time since the product and marketing team is mostly in Europe and we need 2 hours of daily overlap.)
