Job Description
About the Role
This is a build-from-zero GTM role at a seed-stage AI infrastructure company building graph-native context and memory infrastructure for AI agents. Think persistent memory, semantic search, temporal versioning, and entity resolution — purpose-built for modern AI workloads.
You won't be inheriting a playbook. You'll be writing it. GTM runs across three lanes — enterprise anchor deals, pilot programs, and PLG self-serve — and you'll own all three. You'll sit directly next to the CEO on deal strategy and be the first person held accountable to a revenue number .
The ICP is Directors of Engineering and Heads of AI at seed-to-Series D AI companies. There are roughly 1,000 addressable accounts in the Bay Area alone, active enterprise conversations are already open, and the product genuinely sells itself to anyone who sees it.
What You'll DoOwn end-to-end pipeline: sourcing, qualifying, closing, and expanding deals across all GTM lanes
Run outbound to Directors of Engineering and Heads of AI at seed-to-Series D AI companies
Drive enterprise deal cycles from first call to signed contract
Design and iterate on the GTM motion — identifying what works, what doesn't, and how to scale it
Collaborate closely with the CEO on positioning, deal strategy, and ICP refinement
Align and manage multi-channel outbound programs across enterprise, pilot, and self-serve motions
Required:
Early-stage GTM experience with direct, end-to-end revenue ownership — build-from-zero background strongly preferred
Proven track record sourcing, qualifying, negotiating, and closing enterprise deals through multi-stakeholder cycles
Outbound prospecting experience targeting engineering and AI leadership at early-to-growth-stage companies
Technical enough to hold credible conversations with Directors of Engineering and Heads of AI
Experience managing GTM across multiple lanes (enterprise, pilots, and PLG) simultaneously
Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to craft compelling messaging and value propositions
Builder mentality — you create structure, not follow it
Ability and willingness to work on-site in San Francisco
Nice to Have:
Prior experience selling to AI engineering teams
Background at a developer tools or infrastructure company
Experience running PLG and enterprise motions in parallel
Existing network in the Bay Area AI/ML ecosystem
Visa sponsorship: Not available.
Compensation & BenefitsSalary: $120,000 – $200,000 annually
Meaningful equity — ownership commensurate with a founding team member
Flexible PTO
Learning budget (books, courses, conferences, compute)
Wellness programs and daily meals in the office
Top-tier hardware and software
Periodic team offsites
On-site in San Francisco, CA . This is a fully in-person role.
