Speechify is a text-to-speech platform used by over 50 million people globally to convert PDFs, books, documents, and web content into audio. The company was recently named Chrome Extension of the Year by Google and won Apple's 2025 Design Award for Inclusivity. With ~200 employees distributed globally, Speechify is expanding its SIMBA Voice Agents product—a platform enabling companies to deploy natural, human-sounding AI voice agents in 71+ languages with sub-second latency. As an Account Executive / Go-to-Market specialist, you will own the complete sales cycle for mid-market and enterprise customers, from initial prospecting through contract close. This is a hybrid technical and commercial role: you'll conduct deep discovery calls with technical buyers (CTOs, engineers) and business stakeholders, build and demo custom voice agent prototypes during evaluation phases, and partner closely with Forward Deployed Engineers to ensure smooth handoffs from sales to customer onboarding. Key responsibilities include developing GTM playbooks and messaging strategies to penetrate new verticals, running technically sophisticated discovery conversations to understand customer tech stacks and integration requirements, maintaining pipeline discipline in CRM, and representing customer feedback internally to influence product roadmap and packaging decisions. You should have 3–8 years of sales or GTM experience at technical B2B companies, with a proven track record closing deals with both technical and business buyers. Comfort with APIs and no-code/low-code tools to build demos is essential. You'll need strong communication skills to translate complex AI/ML and voice technology concepts for diverse audiences, deep familiarity with the AI/voice landscape, and a self-directed, action-oriented mindset. Nice-to-have qualifications include prior experience selling AI, voice, or conversational technology; knowledge of telephony infrastructure or contact center platforms; solutions engineering or forward deployment background; and multilingual capabilities or international sales experience. Speechy offers a competitive base salary ($105k–$140k), on-target earnings of $150k–$200k including commission, equity, and benefits in a fast-moving startup environment where individual wins have outsized impact.
