Enterprise Account Executive

About Roebling

Roebling is building an AI-native engineering solutions company focused on industrial infrastructure. We turn traditional engineering services, from early feasibility studies through FEL-3 project planning, into software-defined solutions, and will progressively increase the capability of our platform and AI agents to support delivery of our solutions.

We envision a future where engineering services are delivered through the guiding of outcomes in a next-generation system, instead of through the current manual management of the design processes. Generative systems will handle the bulk of manual project design tasks, with engineers and designers transitioning away from juggling between spreadsheets, drafting tools, costing engines, and process simulation systems and associated teams to reviewing and selecting generated solutions, tuning input parameters, and optimizing the system level.

Our goal is to enable faster and better decision-making and scope definition at a significantly reduced cost for customers through a 10x time reduction in engineering workflows.

As our Enterprise Account Executive, you will own revenue generation for Roebling — building pipeline from scratch, running complex enterprise sales cycles, and closing six- and seven-figure deals with major industrial companies. This is a pure sales execution position for someone who knows how to win in long‑cycle, technically complex enterprise software environments.

You’ll sell into senior technical and executive stakeholders at companies in process‑heavy industries — chemicals, biomanufacturing, critical minerals, energy, and adjacent verticals. You’ll need to quickly develop fluency in Roebling’s platform and the capital project planning challenges it solves, but your primary job is to find, advance, and close deals. You will be supported by technical resources for demos, proof‑of‑concept work, and post‑sale delivery — your focus stays on the commercial motion.

Reporting to our Chief Business Officer, you’ll be a foundational member of our commercial team and will play a central role in defining Roebling’s go‑to‑market playbook. The ideal candidate has a track record of selling technically complex software into industrial or engineering organizations, navigating long procurement cycles, and consistently exceeding quota in environments where deals require multi‑stakeholder alignment and executive sponsorship.

What You’ll Do

• Build and manage a robust pipeline of enterprise opportunities across biomanufacturing, chemicals, critical minerals, energy, and adjacent process‑heavy industries through outbound prospecting, strategic networking, industry events, and inbound follow‑up

• Run full‑cycle enterprise sales from first meeting to signed contract — owning discovery, qualification, demo coordination, proposal development, commercial negotiation, and close

• Sell into VP‑ and C‑level stakeholders, translating complex capital project planning challenges into a compelling business case for Roebling’s platform

• Navigate complex procurement environments with multiple stakeholders, long evaluation cycles, and formal purchasing processes — keeping deals on track and moving forward

• Provide structured, consistent market feedback to Product and Engineering — identifying patterns in buyer objections, competitive dynamics, and feature requests that inform the roadmap

• Support government‑facing opportunities including grant‑funded projects, interagency collaborations, and public‑sector engagements where Roebling’s platform can add value

• Help shape and iterate on Roebling’s sales playbook, messaging, and go‑to‑market strategy as a foundational member of the commercial team

Competencies

Must‑Have

• 7‑10 years of full‑cycle enterprise software sales experience, with a demonstrated track record of closing complex, six‑ and seven‑figure deals

• Experience selling technically complex software into industrial, engineering, or process‑industry organizations (e.g., process simulation, asset performance management, industrial automation, engineering design tools, ERP for manufacturing, or similar)

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Science, or a related technical discipline preferred; equivalent depth of technical fluency gained through selling into technical buyers is also valued

• Ability to run a disciplined sales process end‑to‑end — from prospecting and discovery through proposal development, multi‑stakeholder negotiation, and close

• Comfort engaging senior executives, VPs of Engineering/R&D, and technical decision‑makers — with the ability to hold a credible, peer‑level conversation about capital projects, process engineering, and infrastructure investment

• Proven ability to navigate long, complex procurement cycles with multiple stakeholders, formal evaluation processes, and enterprise buying committees

• Strong pipeline management discipline — accurate forecasting, rigorous CRM hygiene, and a structured approach to advancing opportunities

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills — able to craft compelling proposals, deliver sharp executive presentations, and communicate value concisely

• High level of ownership, competitive drive, and a bias toward action

• Willingness to travel meaningfully (estimated 25–40%) to meet customers, attend industry events, and collaborate with the Roebling team in person

• Authorization to work in the United States

Nice‑to‑Have

• Direct experience selling process simulation or techno‑economic modeling software (e.g., Aspen, SuperPro, AVEVA, OSIsoft, Honeywell, or similar industrial software platforms)

• Background in chemical engineering, process engineering, or a related technical discipline

• Existing relationships and network in target verticals (biomanufacturing, critical minerals, chemicals, energy)

• Experience selling into EPC firms, owner‑operators, or engineering consultancies

• Prior startup or high‑growth company experience — comfort building process from scratch and operating with limited infrastructure

• Experience selling platform + services engagements, or selling alongside professional services / advisory teams

Other

This role is fully remote with meaningful travel expectations. We have a preference for candidates near our existing team hubs (NYC, SF/Bay Area, Boston) who are open to hybrid work, but we will hire the best person regardless of location.
