About the Role

Founding Account Executive to build the sales motion from ground up and establish the company’s earliest and most important relationships with Systems Integrators. This career‑defining role is for a builder who goes beyond the standard sales playbook. You will not just close deals – you will define how Auctor goes to market, shape the narrative for both business and technical audiences, and establish the company’s footprint with major Systems Integrators. You will work directly with the CRO and partner with Marketing, Product, Engineering, and Deployment teams. This role is on‑site in New York City, 5 days per week.

What You’ll Own

• Drive full‑cycle revenue across emerging, mid‑market, and enterprise Systems Integrators, owning the sales process from prospecting to close – average deal size $75K, average sales cycle 120 days.
• Run end‑to‑end discovery and standard product demos for both technical and business audiences without relying on a sales engineer for every call.
• Build repeatable sales motions, messaging frameworks, and qualification standards that will serve as the foundation for the sales organization as it scales.
• Operate as an AI‑first seller, using modern agents and automation tools (including Auctor’s own platform) to eliminate low‑leverage administrative, research, and prospecting work.
• Partner with the CRO, Marketing, Product, and Engineering to translate market feedback into positioning improvements and roadmap input.
• Establish early logos, lighthouse customers, and long‑term SI relationships that will define Auctor’s market position.
• Maintain clean HubSpot data and accurate forecasting.

Requirements

Must‑Have

• Technically proficient. Comfortable speaking to Solution Architects, Practice Leads, and other technical buyers, and can demonstrate complex software confidently without needing a sales engineer for every call.
• Builder mindset. Excited by ambiguity and wants to help build the sales culture, not just inhabit one.
• HubSpot proficiency – maintains clean data and accurate forecasting.
• NYC‑based and available to work on‑site 5 days per week.
• Existing US work authorization. Visa sponsorship available for exceptional candidates.
