About the company
Braintrust is the agent observability platform. By actively applying intelligence to agent traces and automatically surfacing the most critical patterns, Braintrust gives teams the visibility to understand how agents behave in production and the tools to improve them.
Teams at Notion, Stripe, Box, OpenAI, and Cloudflare use Braintrust to trace their agents, find the issues in their observability data, and run evals that tell them how to improve.
About the role
Braintrust is looking for an Strategic Account Executive who will be responsible for prospecting and closing new business across the Central Region of the US.
Braintrust already has a strong base of early customers including Stripe, Notion, Instacart, and Airtable, which you'll be able to build on to help us expand. Our primary users are software engineers, so you'll need to be comfortable working with a technical audience.
This role is remote and must be based in Denver, Austin, or Chicago.
What you’ll do
As part of the foundational sales team, you'll help develop our GTM strategy and close key customer accounts.
Build and own the entire sales process including engaging with potential customers, negotiating and closing contracts, customer retention, and renewals.
Navigate complex sales and win trust through consultative sales conversations with technical teams.
Ideal candidate credentials
You have 5+ years of full cycle sales experience, selling to technical audiences.
You have the drive and willingness to go deep on our product to carry a technical conversation with AI teams.
You are ready to roll up your sleeves and drive impact to exceed revenue targets.
You have a strong worth ethic, competitive drive, and you naturally inspire and motivate those around you.
You have thrived in environments where things are sometimes loosely defined and may have competing priorities or deadlines.
Benefits include
Medical, dental, and vision insurance
Daily lunch, snacks, and beverages
Flexible time off
Competitive salary and equity
Wifi & cellphone stipend
