• Startup experience: Background at high-growth companies during scale phases
• Familiarity with enterprise sales methodologies (MEDDIC or similar)

What Success looks like in this role

• Startup mindset: Excited about ambiguity and rapid growth—you’ll be building the enterprise playbook, not inheriting one
