About Obvio AI

Each year, more than 7,500 pedestrians are killed by drivers in the U.S—a number that has increased by 70% over the past decade. Despite growing awareness, most cities still struggle to curb dangerous driving. “Vision Zero” efforts across the country are falling short.

Obvio AI exists to change that.

We deploy solar-powered, AI-assisted cameras to enforce traffic laws where pedestrians are most vulnerable—automating enforcement in ways that police departments or traditional systems cannot. Our approach has already led to a dramatic reduction in reckless driving and improved safety for pedestrians, drivers, and law enforcement alike.

Founded by the team behind Motive’s AI dashcam, Obvio is backed by Bain Capital Ventures and Khosla Ventures. We recently raised a $22M Series A and are working with some of the most forward-thinking cities in the country. With meaningful revenue, a massive market, and strong policy momentum, we’re building the intelligence layer for safer streets globally.

The Opportunity

Obvio is seeking a high-impact Account Executive to be based in Maryland and drive revenue in the DMV region. This role is designed for a builder-minded seller who thrives in early-stage environments, is comfortable selling into complex government and public-sector organizations, and can help shape our go-to-market motion as we scale.

You will own the full sales cycle—from early discovery through close—working closely with leadership, product, and marketing. Occasional travel will be required to support key customer engagements, pilots, and strategic opportunities across the U.S.

What You’ll Do

• Own and close mid-market to enterprise opportunities

• Sell into state and local government agencies, with a strong focus on transportation, public safety, and law-enforcement-adjacent stakeholders

• Navigate complex buying committees, long sales cycles, and procurement processes

• Develop strong POVs on customer pain points and translate them into compelling business cases

• Partner closely with product and engineering to support pilots, proof-of-concepts, and customer feedback loops

• Help refine Obvio’s sales playbooks, messaging, and early GTM processes

• Represent Obvio at customer meetings, site visits, and industry events as needed

What We're Looking For

• Experience selling GovTech solutions (strong plus for law enforcement, transportation, or public safety)

• Proven success opening new markets or selling early-stage / emerging products

• Comfort operating in mid-market to enterprise deal environments

• Experience in high-growth, early-stage companies where ambiguity and iteration are the norm

• Track record of managing full-cycle sales in complex, multi-stakeholder environments

• Builder mentality: Energized by creating structure where little exists and improving processes over time

• Consultative seller: Skilled at uncovering true customer needs and aligning solutions to outcomes

• Executive presence: Able to credibly engage with senior government and agency leaders

• Resilient and adaptable: Comfortable with longer sales cycles and evolving product narratives

• Highly collaborative: Works well cross-functionally with product, engineering, and leadership

• Detail-oriented and disciplined: Strong follow-through in CRM hygiene, forecasting, and pipeline management

WhyObvio

• Your work will help save lives and improve road safety

• Series A of $22M led by Bain Capital

• Fast-moving startup environment with meaningful ownership

• Competitive compensation and early-stage equity
