The Role

This is not a remote overlay on an existing territory. You will own a named-account list of 30–40 enterprise accounts across the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg, and your job is to turn those accounts into production Telnyx customers.

You'll work side-by-side with a dedicated FDE — not a demo resource, but a technical partner who designs architectures, builds POCs, and gets the first workload live. You win together. No throw-over-the-wall.

This is a founding role. You'll help define how Telnyx sells into enterprise accounts in Benelux, set the playbook, and build the references that the next wave of hires will follow.

The Pod Model

• Enterprise AE — owns the named-account list, builds executive relationships, gets in the room, owns commercial qualification and close, expands the account.
• Forward Deployed Engineer — owns technical discovery, designs the architecture, builds the POC when gated
