Job description

Clockwork.io is a Silicon Valley startup that delivers state-of-the-art AI compute acceleration.

We are founded by Stanford researchers and veteran systems engineers with a shared belief: distributed systems powering modern AI require a new approach to managing time, reliability, and performance. Unlike traditional solutions that rely on specialized hardware or embedded telemetry in switches, Clockwork’s system brings insane visibility, resilience, acceleration and efficiency to the network layer entirely through software. As AI workloads continue to scale in size, urgency, and impact, networks must evolve to keep up. Clockwork exists to make that evolution possible.

About Us

Clockwork.io – A Software-Driven Revolution in AI Networking

Clockwork Systems was founded by Stanford researchers and veteran systems engineers who share a vision for redefining the foundations of distributed computing. As AI workloads grow increasingly complex, traditional infrastructure struggles to meet the demands of performance, reliability, and precise coordination. Clockwork is pioneering a software-driven approach to AI networking, delivering deterministic time, ultra-low latency, and seamless scalability for modern distributed systems.

Summary

We’re seeking a high-performing, technically adept Account Executive to join our team as the first AE in Europe. This is a unique opportunity to be part of an early-stage, high-growth company building the future of AI/ML infrastructure. If you excel in dynamic environments, are passionate about cutting-edge technology, and want to play a foundational role in shaping our go-to-market strategy in the region, we’d love to connect.

What You will do

  • Partner closely with Sales Engineering, Product, and Founders to shape GTM messaging and feedback loops
  • Navigate technical conversations around synchronization accuracy, AI workload reliability, and distributed system performance
  • Represent Clockwork at industry events, AI/ML conferences, and customer briefings

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience in selling infrastructure solutions to large enterprises - both technical buyers as well as senior decision makers; (startup experience is a plus)
  • Strong understanding of modern cloud-native architectures (e.g., Cloud, Kubernetes), observability, data infrastructure
  • Knowledge of or deep familiarity with AI/ML infrastructure is a major plus
  • Prior experience working with engineering or data science teams
  • Track record of meeting or exceeding quota in a competitive technical sales environment
  • Ability to manage complex sales processes and communicate value to both technical and business stakeholders
