About the role

What You'll Own

Pipeline and Sourcing

  • Build and sustain a candidate pipeline that yields 5 to 8 sales hires per month, with at least 50% sourced
  • Run 20+ candidate screens per week
  • Use LinkedIn, Juicebox, and creative sourcing tools to find sellers who don't surface through inbound; write outreach that earns high response rates

Assessment

  • Quickly and qualitatively assess candidates for grit, consistency, communication, and coachability
  • Identify the signal that doesn't show up on a resume or LinkedIn
  • Drive hiring managers to decide; hold the line on quality and push the team to move forward when the signal is there

Sales Hiring Brand and Collateral

  • Stand up SDR and AE hiring personas that codify what good looks like
  • Build candidate-facing collateral that attracts the right talent and helps the wrong talent self-select out
  • Position sales seats around what actually makes them great: the product, the market, the comp upside, the team

In-Person Hiring in Austin

  • Build local sourcing channels, university partnerships, trade show presence, and on-site interview days
  • Be visibly in the market through coffees, events, meetups, campus visits

Quality and Retention

  • Partner with sales leadership on post-hire ramp signals

  • Strong sourcing chops with LinkedIn Recruiter, Juicebox, and other modern tools
  • Experience designing or refining sales hiring processes, including assessment loops that predict on-the-floor performance

Attributes

  • Extreme owner who takes sales hiring as full scope and reports on it like a P&L
  • High bar for talent with a specific point of view on what makes a great seller
  • Marketer at heart who can write, position, and merchandise a seat well
  • Builder of long-term channels who invests in universities, events, and relationships
