  • Maintain strategic, long-term, trusting relationships with a high volume of clients in order to accomplish organic growth and long-term company objectives

  • Guide newer AEs on tricky deals and objections

  • Report on a regular cadence: come to every weekly pipeline review and Weekly Business Review ready to review pipeline and forecast, keep Salesforce hygiene current, and earn customer references

  • Build and present a quarterly win plan for your territory, and own the pod plan's sections for large and multi-year deals

You

  • Have a proven track record selling cloud infrastructure (public cloud, IaaS, or GPU cloud), including committed and consumption-based deals

  • Have closed a high volume of deals ranging from $10K to $100K, in tandem with multi-million-dollar deals

  • Have 4–7 years of closing sales experience at a technology company, with a track record of top performance

  • Have the drive and energy to manage multiple accounts while looking for new opportunities

  • Have an ability to engage in both technical and business-level conversations with a variety of stakeholders, including engineering managers, ML researchers, and business leaders

Nice to Have

  • Existing relationships in the AI lab, enterprise AI, or research ecosystem

  • Experience selling capacity-constrained or hardware-backed products
