Redstrings is redefining RiskOps for banks, fintechs, and credit unions with lightning-fast Enhanced Due Diligence and AI-powered compliance workflows. We’re now adding a true builder to our founding team—someone who can architect and lead revenue from Day 1.

What You’ll Own

• Full GTM ownership: design the sales playbook, set targets, build pipeline, and iterate it in real-time.
• Hands-on selling: run discovery, demo, and closing calls with C-suite & compliance leaders at banks, fintechs, and FIs.
• Team creation & leadership: recruit, coach, and scale a high-performing SDR/AE pod as we grow.
• Partnership & channel strategy: leverage existing relationships with core-banking, AML/KYC, and regtech ecosystems to accelerate deals.
• Voice of customer: funnel market feedback straight into product and GTM experiments alongside the CEO & CTO.

What Makes You a Fit

• Proven hunter: 7-10+ years selling SaaS or data solutions into regulated financial institutions with $1M+ annual quotas crushed.
• Deep network: warm intros in banking, payments, or fintech compliance you can tap on week one.
• Process architect: you’ve written outreach cadences, built dashboards, and scaled a repeatable sales engine from zero to double-digit ARR.
• Player-coach: equally happy drafting a spreadsheet forecast, jumping on a 10-PM demo, or mentoring a first-time SDR.
• RegTech fluency (bonus): experience with KYC/KYB, AML, fraud, or risk platforms earns extra credit.
• US-based & startup-tough: you thrive in fast pivots, limited resources, and green-field opportunity.

Why Redstrings

• Co-founder equity plus uncapped commission & milestone bonuses —your upside grows with every deal closed.
• Road-map to cash compensation as revenue milestones hit.
• Direct influence on vision, culture, and the compliance tech stack of the future.
• Flexible remote work with quarterly founder onsites.
