The company has ~200 employees distributed worldwide and has won recognition from Google (Chrome Extension of the Year) and Apple (2025 Design Award for Inclusivity). SIMBA Voice Agents by Speechify is a new product line enabling companies to deploy natural, human-sounding AI voice agents in 71+ languages with sub-second latency. Each customer receives a dedicated Forward Deployed Engineer who builds custom agents, integrates with their systems, and iterates weekly. This Account Executive / Go-to-Market role is for someone who combines sales acumen with technical depth. You will own the complete sales cycle for mid-market and enterprise customers—from prospecting and discovery through close. The role requires hands-on involvement in technical evaluations, building custom voice agent prototypes during sales cycles, and collaborating with Forward Deployed Engineers to ensure smooth handoffs to onboarding. Key responsibilities include running technically deep discovery calls to understand customer use cases and tech stacks; building and demoing custom prototypes to accelerate deal momentum; developing GTM playbooks and outbound strategies to penetrate new verticals; representing customer needs internally to influence product roadmap and packaging; and maintaining pipeline discipline in CRM with accurate forecasting. Ideal candidates have 3–8 years in sales, account executive, or GTM roles at technical B2B companies. You should have a track record closing deals with both technical buyers (CTOs, engineers) and business stakeholders. Comfort with APIs and no-code/low-code tools for demo building is essential. Strong understanding of AI/ML and voice technology landscapes is required. You communicate exceptionally well, simplifying complex concepts without losing depth, and operate with high self-direction and bias toward action. Nice-to-have qualifications include prior experience selling AI, voice, or conversational technology; familiarity with telephony infrastructure or contact centers; solutions engineering or forward deployment background; and multilingual capability or international sales experience. Compensation: $105,000–$140,000 base salary with on-target earnings of $150,000–$200,000 (including commission). Equity and benefits included. Fast-moving startup environment with outsized impact potential.
