Job description

About Engine

Engine is the all-in-one travel and spend management platform trusted by 38K+ businesses and groups representing 1.2M+ travelers. We’re the retailer and the rails of business travel, the fastest-growing company in travel tech, built on a decade of proprietary technology, supply, and pricing no one else can replicate. Other travel and AI companies run on our infrastructure to book real trips, hold rates, and move payments, without building any of it themselves. We built it, AI-forward at every layer, from how travelers book to how the rails run.

That work has earned recognition as one of Fast Company’s Best Workplaces for Innovators (2025), TravelTech’s Reservation Platform of the Year (2026), and one of Built In’s Best Places to Work (2020–2026).

We’re looking for bold, ambitious people to help redefine how businesses manage and experience travel. Working here, you can expect exponential growth, an ambitious pace, full ownership, and high-caliber colleagues who push you to do the best work of your career. Every hire raises the bar.

Come outpace the ordinary and build the future of travel with us.

*MUST be located in Denver, CO*

• Work closely with account executives, sales managers, and marketing teams to align outreach efforts and share insights from the field.
• Keep CRM systems up to date with accurate information on lead status, contact records, and follow-up activities.
• Stay up to date with product knowledge, industry trends, and sales best practices to maximize performance and personal growth.
• Meet and exceed daily, weekly, and monthly KPIs (e.g., call volume, meetings set, lead conversion rate).

Here’s what we’re looking for

• You’re excited about starting or advancing your sales career, and you’re eager to build a solid foundation for long-term growth in the field.
• You have a strong desire to succeed, a natural sense of urgency, and the ability to push through challenges with enthusiasm.
• You’re not afraid to pick up the phone and speak to strangers, and you can quickly build rapport with decision-makers.
