In this senior individual contributor role, you’ll open doors, engage senior decision-makers, and close high-value deals that change the way they work. You’ll be the driving force behind new revenue opportunities—without direct team management responsibilities.
At Straker AI, we’re not following the playbook, we’re writing it. Our AI-native platform combines cutting-edge automation, AI custom models, and adaptive workflows to help businesses move faster, work smarter, stay fully in control of their content, and ahead of the curve.

- Create business cases that align all key stakeholders by connecting the numbers to the strategy so commercial and operational priorities move in the same direction
- Drive the commercial strategy for high-value opportunities powered by our AI-native platform, aligning stakeholders, positioning the platform’s value, and closing deals that create long-term growth
- Engage senior decision-makers with a fresh, AI-first vision that connects to their commercial priorities
Indirect & Channel Sales
- Accelerate growth by turning strategic channel partnerships into revenue engines that unlock access to new clients and markets
- Co-develop business cases that align all parties ensuring the partner, their clients, and our teams see both the numbers and the strategy working together for mutual growth
- Build and execute joint go-to-market strategies with partners to open doors faster and at scale
- Act as the senior relationship lead for key channel partners, ensuring consistent engagement and shared success metrics

- Skilled at navigating complex, multi-stakeholder deals and influencing senior leaders
- Relentlessly curious, resourceful, and commercially sharp
- Passionate about technology, with a strong interest in AI’s potential

- Proficiency with Sales CRM systems (ideally HubSpot) and sales automation tools such as Apollo, Sales Navigator, Outreach, Dripify, etc.
- Strong understanding of AI concepts such as machine learning, NLP, large and small language models, and generative AI is a plus
- Extra points if you have knowledge of how AI integrates into business workflows (marketing automation, product content, customer experience)
- Confident in translating technical AI capabilities into commercial outcomes for non-technical buyers
- Sharp at spotting market shifts early and turning them into new opportunities
What You Bring
