Job description

We're Optix — helping flex and coworking space operators build smarter, more automated spaces and better-connected communities.

Our platform powers the digital backbone of coworking and flex spaces around the world, uniting automation, CRM, and community engagement tools into one seamless experience. We help our customers create beautiful, integrated, human-centered workspaces that run smoothly for managers and members alike.

We're a passionate team that supports each other to do our best work. You'll often find us sharing pour-over coffee, chocolate croissants, and big ideas about the future of work.

Now, we're looking for an ambitious Account Executive to join our rapidly growing team.

You'll bring curiosity, empathy, and a consultative mindset to every conversation, helping coworking operators discover the tools they need to succeed.

You’ll also have the opportunity to shape our sales strategy, refine our motion, and build the playbook that defines how Optix grows.

If you have 2+ years of experience as an Account Executive (ideally in B2B SaaS) and are eager to make a direct impact at a fast‑growing, mission‑driven company, we'd love to meet you.

Note: Flexible hours with some early morning and late afternoon availability required to accommodate clients across time zones.
