Founding Enterprise Account Executive

$200k - $250k

CLERA

About the Role

An early-stage, AI-native SaaS company in the pricing optimization space is hiring a Founding Enterprise Account Executive to own and scale their enterprise sales motion. This is a ground-floor opportunity to work directly alongside founders, shape go-to-market strategy, and build a repeatable enterprise playbook from scratch - all while closing high-ACV deals that directly influence product direction and commercial success.

The company's platform helps B2B businesses transform pricing from a static exercise into a continuously optimized, data-driven system - spanning willingness-to-pay analysis, deal guidance, packaging design, discount governance, and more.
What You'll Do
  • Own the full enterprise sales cycle end-to-end: self-sourced prospecting, discovery, negotiation, and close.
  • Run consultative discovery with senior economic buyers - CFOs, CROs, CPOs, and Heads of Monetization.
  • Carry and accurately forecast an ambitious revenue target while maintaining rigorous pipeline health week to week.
  • Design, document, and iterate the enterprise sales playbook - covering outreach, qualification, deal structure, commercial terms, and close mechanics.
  • Partner directly with founders on GTM strategy, ICP definition, and positioning; feed market insight back into product and sales.
  • Establish CRM discipline and a repeatable operating rhythm for pipeline hygiene, prioritization, and clean forecasting.
  • Leverage AI agents and sales workflows to automate repeatable buyer-journey tasks, focusing human judgment on key deal moments.
  • Act as a trusted advisor to customers and translate live deal learnings into actionable product and engineering feedback.
  • In your first 90 days: ramp on the product and ICP, build pipeline through outbound and inbound, close initial deals, and begin codifying a scalable playbook.
What We're Looking For

Required:
  • 5-8+ years of enterprise B2B tech sales experience with a proven track record of closing high-ACV deals end-to-end.
  • Demonstrated success owning and exceeding revenue targets with self-generated pipeline - not reliant on inbound alone.
  • Strong experience running multi-stakeholder enterprise deals and building consensus up to the C-level.
  • Proficiency with CRM and sales-engagement tooling (e.g., Salesforce, Gong) and experience building automations for repeatable sales tasks.
  • Comfort working with AI-driven workflows and directing AI tools in a sales context.
  • Strategic, analytical approach to market assessment paired with creative, tactical execution.
  • High tolerance for ambiguity and ability to thrive in a fast-paced, early-stage startup environment.
  • Professional fluency in English.
Nice to Have:
  • Experience selling pricing, monetization, CPQ, or billing solutions.
Please note: Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.
Compensation & Benefits
  • On-target earnings: $200,000 - $250,000 USD annually (base + variable)
  • Early-stage equity opportunity
  • Direct impact on company strategy and GTM as a founding team member
