Job description
What You'll Do
Own the full sales cycle: qualify, discover, and close new SMB customers in the new vertical
Proactively prospect and engage dental practices to drive new client acquisition
Serve as a founding voice in shaping the sales motion, messaging, positioning, and processes for this vertical
Build and iterate on the playbook in real time — what you figure out becomes the foundation for every AE who comes next
Consistently track activity, pipeline, and performance in Salesforce, and help define what "good" looks like in the data
Become a student of dentistry and an expert in the product and value proposition
Partner closely with senior sales leadership to hit revenue targets and refine KPIs
Feed learnings back into product, marketing, and GTM strategy — you're on the front lines and your voice will shape the roadmap
Operate with urgency, accountability, and a bias toward action in a fast-moving environment
What We're Looking For
4+ years of sales experience, with 2+ years owning a full-cycle closing role
Experience launching a new vertical, new market, or new product — you've been the first or among the first AEs in a seat before and know what it takes to build from nothing
Experience in a high-growth startup or scaling environment strongly preferred
Comfort operating in ambiguity with limited structure and resources — you write the playbook as you go
Strong organizational skills and disciplined pipeline management
High proficiency with Salesforce or similar CRMs
Demonstrated track record of professional success
Bonus Points For
Experience building a founding sales motion at an early-stage company or newly-acquired business unit
Background in healthcare, dental, or adjacent verticals

Relentlessly positive attitude, strong sense of humor, and the ability to have fun at work
