Jobbeschreibung

Akool is one of the fastest-growing generative AI companies in Silicon Valley. Our platform powers real-time AI avatars, video translation, face swap, and live avatar streaming for creators, marketers, and enterprises worldwide — delivered through our web platform, developer API, and Model-as-a-Service (MaaS) offerings.

The Role

Sales in Residence is Akool's hands-on sales residency for people at the very start of their careers. You'll sell real AI products to real customers, test different sales channels, and learn the craft of selling from inside a breakout AI company. No sales experience required — we'll teach you everything. You bring the energy, curiosity, and hustle.

This is a part-time, in-person role based at our Palo Alto office, designed to fit around classes or other commitments.

What You'll Do

• Sell Akool's full product line: platform subscriptions, developer API, and MaaS/enterprise offerings
• Own your pipeline end to end: find prospects, pitch, run live demos, and close deals
• Experiment across sales channels — door-to-door and field sales, event and conference selling, community-based sales, and online demand generation. Creative new approaches are welcome and rewarded
• Demo AI avatars and video tools live — the product has real "wow" factor once people see it
• Bring what you learn from customers straight back to our product and marketing teams

Who You Are

• A current student, new grad, or young professional hungry to break into tech
• Genuinely excited about AI — you follow the space and love showing people what's possible
• Excited to become great at sales, even if you've never sold before
• Highly self-motivated — you don't wait to be told what to do
• Comfortable starting conversations with strangers; resilient, competitive, and coachable
• No prior sales or AI experience needed — attitude and drive matter most

Compensation

• Commission-first structure: earnings come primarily from sales commissions plus performance bonuses
• Uncapped upside — the more you close, the more you earn
• Strong performers earn a path to expanded responsibilities or full-time roles at Akool

Why Akool

• Learn to sell inside one of the fastest-growing AI companies, at the center of the AI video boom
• Sell products customers get genuinely excited about the moment they see a demo
• Work directly with Akool's founders and leadership team
• Flexible part-time schedule that works around school or other jobs
• Graduate from the program with a real track record: closed deals, channel experiments, and sales skills that transfer anywhere
