About Tavily

We're building the infrastructure layer for agentic web interaction at scale. Our API is designed from the ground up to power Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and real-time reasoning in AI systems. By connecting LLMs to high-quality, trustworthy web content, we help developers build agents that are not only intelligent — but also informed.

We work with some of the most innovative teams in AI — from small startups shaping the ecosystem to the largest enterprises deploying AI at scale. Whether it’s powering sales assistants, research copilots, or internal knowledge tools, we’re the missing link between LLMs and the real world.

• Identify and develop new enterprise opportunities through outbound, partnerships, and inbound demand. Build strong relationships with technical and executive stakeholders, including engineering leaders, product teams, and C-suite decision-makers.

• Develop strategic account plans for target enterprises and expand Tavily’s footprint within key customers.

• Experience managing multi-stakeholder sales cycles with technical and business buyers.

• Strong prospecting and pipeline generation skills. Ability to communicate the value of technical products to both technical and non-technical audiences. Self-starter mentality with the ability to operate in a fast-paced startup environment.

• Excellent presentation, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.

Nice To Have

• Background selling to engineering teams, AI teams, or data platform leaders.

• Experience working in high-growth startups.

• Technical fluency that allows you to effectively engage with developers and technical decision-makers.
