Opportunity
Airbyte is seeking a Bay Area-based Account Executive to join our sales team, reporting directly to the Head of Sales. This individual will be charged with closing a list of accounts (inbound and outbound) across our different product lines.
This role will be primarily selling into the CTO / CIO organization with frequent interaction with Data Engineers, Data Analysts, Heads of Engineering, Developers, Data Scientists, etc. Foundational knowledge of cloud infrastructure, the modern data stack, API-based data connections, and database replication – or a demonstrated ability to pick up new industry knowledge quickly — is a necessity.
New business and small footprint deals will grow your client base, and overachievement will likely depend on landing & expanding from single departments to company-wide deployments. This is an opportunity to be an early part of a growing startup sales function with a strong product-led growth motion.
