*   **Build Strategic Relationships:** Engage with C-level executives, CTOs, and AI decision-makers to understand their pain points and tailor OpenRouter solutions to meet their needs.
*   **Drive Sales Cycles:** Manage the full sales process from initial outreach to contract negotiation and closing, including demos, proposals, and ROI analyses.
*   **Collaborate Cross-Functionally:** Work closely with product, engineering, and customer success teams to ensure seamless implementation and customer satisfaction post-sale.

*   Proven track record closing six- and seven-figure enterprise deals.
*   Experience selling technical or infrastructure products (AI/ML platforms, developer tools, cloud, data, or APIs preferred).
*   Ability to sell to both technical buyers and executive decision-makers.
*   Comfort operating in ambiguity and helping customers define new categories or use cases.
*   Strong business acumen around pricing, contracts, and enterprise buying processes.
*   Highly self-directed, collaborative, and outcomes-oriented.

## Nice to Have

*   Familiarity with LLM ecosystems (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, open-source models).
*   Experience working with global or multi-region enterprise customers.
*   Prior startup or high-growth company experience.

## Why OpenRouter
