* Demonstrated success carrying and exceeding revenue targets with self-sourced pipeline generation.
* Strong experience running multi-stakeholder enterprise deals and building consensus up to C-level.
* Proficiency with CRM and sales-engagement platforms such as Salesforce and Gong, including building automations for repeatable sales tasks.
* Comfort working with AI-driven workflows and directing AI tools within a sales process.
* Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-ambiguity early-stage startup environment.
* Professional fluency in English.
* Experience with pricing, monetization, or CPQ and billing solutions is a strong plus.
