About the role

  • Account Executive at Parasail establishing go-to-market strategy for AI infrastructure solutions. Leading sales cycles, demos, and customer onboarding at an early stage startup.

Responsibilities

  • Build pipeline from scratch — Prospect, qualify, and drive new opportunities into the funnel.
  • Own the sales cycle end-to-end — Discovery, technical validation, negotiation, and close.
  • Run high-impact demos — Tailor demos and POCs to customer use cases; credibly speak to infra, APIs, and performance.
  • Handle technical objections — Partner with engineering as needed, but be able to stand on your own with CTOs and dev teams.
  • Define the playbook — Work with founders to codify what works, refine messaging, and build repeatable processes.
  • Guide onboarding — Ensure first customers integrate smoothly and hit early milestones.
  • Close the feedback loop — Surface customer insights to inform product and GTM strategy.

Requirements

  • 5+ years in quota-carrying sales (Account Executive, Account Manager, or similar), ideally at a developer-focused or infrastructure startup.
  • Technical credibility — Comfort running demos, talking APIs, and engaging with engineering leadership (without needing an SE in the room).
  • Track record of hitting/exceeding quota and closing new logos.
  • Experience selling into mid-market or late-stage startups; ability to navigate technical + business conversations.
  • Thrives in ambiguous, fast-paced startup environments; motivated to build from zero.
  • Excellent communicator who can translate technical depth into clear customer value.
