Speechify is a 200-person, fully distributed company that has built a market-leading text-to-speech platform used by over 50 million people globally. The company was recently named Chrome Extension of the Year by Google and won Apple's 2025 Design Award for Inclusivity. Speechify is now launching SIMBA Voice Agents, a platform that enables 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 full sales cycle for mid-market and enterprise customers. 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 the sales process, and partner closely with Forward Deployed Engineers to ensure smooth handoffs from sale to onboarding. Key responsibilities include prospecting and closing new accounts, running technically sophisticated discovery conversations, building GTM playbooks and outbound strategies to enter new verticals, representing customer needs to influence product roadmap decisions, and maintaining pipeline discipline in CRM. 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. You're comfortable getting hands-on with APIs and no-code/low-code tools to build demos, and you have a strong understanding of the AI/ML or voice technology landscape. Exceptional communication skills—the ability to simplify complex technical concepts without losing depth—are essential. You're highly self-directed with strong pipeline discipline and a bias toward action. Nice-to-have qualifications include prior experience selling AI, voice, or conversational technology; familiarity with telephony infrastructure or contact centers; prior solutions engineering or forward deployment experience; and multilingual capabilities or international sales experience. The role offers competitive base salary ($105k–$140k), on-target earnings of $150k–$200k including commission and equity, and the opportunity to work in a fast-moving startup environment where your wins have outsized impact.
