You will work closely with the founding team, engineers, and operators to help customers adopt a fundamentally new way of running GTM—while building and coaching the first AE team.

Starting February, this role will be 5 days/week in our San Francisco office. Until then, we ask candidates to come into our Santa Clara office 2 days/week (ideally Mondays and Wednesdays).
