Summary

Drive end-to-end sales cycles for Rippling's Data Cloud solutions, collaborating with technical teams to close complex B2B SaaS deals. Requires 3+ years closing experience, startup fluency, and proven track record of promotion in high-growth environments.

About the role

What you will do

  • Drive Revenue: Manage the full sales cycle for Rippling Solutions, from initial discovery and technical scoping to closing deals.
  • Technical Partnership: Collaborate extensively with Solutions Engineers (SEs), Professional Services, or Forward Deployed Engineers to bridge the gap between "vision" and "execution".
  • Pipeline Management: Maintain rigorous discipline in Salesforce to accurately forecast revenue and consistently achieve monthly or quarterly quotas.
  • Subject Matter Expertise: Become an expert on Rippling’s Data Cloud, understanding our positioning across the competitive landscape and serving as a product advocate.
  • Build & Improve: Exercise the courage to challenge the status quo; if you see a process that is broken, take the initiative to fix it.

  • Proven Upward Mobility: A clear track record of internal promotion (e.g., SDR to Sr. SDR to AE) at a single high-growth company. We value "builders" who stay to see the results of their work.
  • High-Velocity Discipline: Experience in a fast-paced environment.
  • Startup Fluency: Prior experience in a Series A–D startup environment where you were required to build your own playbooks rather than just follow existing ones.
