Run product demos that make customers say “wow”
Develop and execute strategies to land high-value customers
Work closely with SDRs to keep the pipeline strong and moving
Negotiate contracts, hit targets, and drive revenue growth

2+ years in a sales role, ideally in SaaS or AI/tech products
Experience managing a full sales cycle, from lead generation to close
Strong communication skills—you can tell a great story and sell a vision
