Founding Account Executive (AE)

The role is the first sales hire, owning the whole deal from first outreach to signed contract with consumer brand marketing and insights leaders. A strong candidate has a few years of closing B2B software deals, hits quota, and can run sharp discovery and demos that turn social video data into a clear brand story. Comfort with building process from scratch matters as much as selling, since the founders want their early wins turned into a repeatable motion. How it fits the AI era The product sells AI analysis of short form video, so the seller has to explain what the data means for a brand rather than just pitch features. AI tools speed up prospecting and research, but the trust building, discovery questions, and pilot design still rest on the person. The role sits close to where AI output meets a buyer who needs it translated into a decision. How it builds AI experience Working here means learning how AI reads video content and turns sentiment and creator trends into something a marketing leader can act on. That grounding helps a candidate speak credibly about the product and handle objections about data and method. Building it starts with hands on use of modern AI tools in daily selling and a real grasp of how social listening products work.
