Founding Account Executive

150k – 300kNew York, NYOnsite4+ YOE
Summary

Founding Account Executive to own full sales cycle selling AI agents into insurance TPAs and carriers. Build repeatable revenue motion from early traction alongside founders.

About the role

What You'll Do

  • Sell into large insurance organizations: TPAs and carriers running high-volume, high-stakes claims operations
  • Own the full sales cycle, from discovery through pilot design to close
  • Run structured pilots that prove clear, hard-dollar ROI within weeks
  • Multi-thread complex accounts deeply across claims, ops, procurement, and IT
  • Help define where we focus next, shaping the ICP and wedge that gets us to $100M+ ARR
  • Turn early wins into a repeatable motion future reps can scale
  • Feed the roadmap: bring market signal directly into product and engineering

You

  • High ownership, high agency. You don't wait for perfect inputs; you create momentum with what you have
  • Proven closer with experience selling $50K–$500K ACV SaaS
  • 4+ years in closing roles, ideally with time in early-stage or high-growth environments
  • Comfortable operating without structure and building clarity as you go
  • Based in NYC (SoHo) and willing to work in-office 5 days/week

Nice to Have

  • Early-stage startup experience as an early sales hire
  • Exposure to insurance, claims, TPAs, or carrier environments
  • Experience selling into operational, financial, or compliance-heavy buyers
  • Background running pilots, POVs, or proof-of-value sales motions
  • Strong writing or public presence in your space

Compensation

  • OTE: $150K–$300K (50/50 base and variable)
  • Non-recoverable draw for your first 60–90 days: full OTE-equivalent pay with no quota, so ramping never means a pay cut
  • Year-one variable is tied to leading indicators (qualified meetings, pilots launched, multi-threading depth). A full quota structure kicks in after month 12
  • Equity: 0.10%–0.30%

Benefits

  • Lunch and dinner every workday from local restaurants
  • 100% of medical, dental, and vision insurance covered, along with a generous monthly gym stipend
  • Quarterly offsites somewhere you actually want to go
