You will build relationships with businesses and individuals providing valuable data resources to leading AI companies, including major technology organizations and advanced AI research labs. As one of the first commercial hires, you will play a key role in establishing sales processes, developing commercial strategies, and driving measurable revenue growth.

Conduct discovery calls, assess potential opportunities, understand provider capabilities, and determine their commercial suitability.

Drive qualified opportunities toward signed agreements and completed, active marketplace listings, ensuring alignment with current buyer demand.

Lead pricing discussions, negotiate commercial terms, manage objections, and move prospects efficiently through the decision-making process.

Collaborate with senior team members on technical assessments, complex commercial questions, and contract-related matters when additional expertise is required.

Prioritize opportunities based on buyer demand, business potential, likelihood of conversion, and expected commercial value.

Maintain accurate and up-to-date CRM records, including deal stages, expected closing dates, potential risks, follow-up activities, and next steps.

Work closely with Sales Development representatives to ensure qualified leads, warm introductions, and promising opportunities progress smoothly through the sales funnel.

Contribute to the development of sales processes, commercial strategies, and internal playbooks as an early member of the growing sales organization.

Collaborate with founders and senior stakeholders to identify opportunities for improving sales performance and supporting long-term business growth.
