GTM Special Projects, Physical AI

What you'll do

• Own the full sales cycle end-to-end, from outbound through close, with pipeline generation support
• Sell into Physical AI teams across robotics, autonomous vehicles, and research applications — from high-growth startups to large-scale enterprise programs
• Build deep relationships with technical and executive buyers: heads of autonomy, VP AI, ML engineering leaders, and data operations teams
• Develop a sharp point of view on the Physical AI landscape — understanding where customer pain is sharpest and how Encord's platform delivers measurable impact
• Partner closely with Product, Engineering, and Customer Success to bring customer insight back into the roadmap
• Help sharpen the ICP as we expand into new Physical AI use cases and geographies
• Forecast accurately, maintain pipeline discipline, and operate with the rigor of someone building something that will outlast them

Who we're looking for

• A consistent top or near-top performer in your current or most recent sales role
• Comfortable selling technically complex solutions to skeptical, STEM-trained buyers
• Energized by ambiguity and early-stage environments where you have real ownership and real accountability
• A natural relationship builder who earns trust through preparation, follow-through, and genuine curiosity about customer problems
• Entrepreneurial by disposition — you see gaps as opportunities, not blockers
• Resilient, high-output, and genuinely motivated by the quality of your work

Experience requirements

• 3 to 7 years in a B2B SaaS or enterprise technology sales role, with a track record of hitting or exceeding quota
• Experience selling to technical audiences — ML, data, or engineering teams — is a strong advantage
• Familiarity with data infrastructure, AI tooling, robotics, or autonomous systems is a plus
