I’m hiring a founding AE at Maintouch.
**The basics**
* Maintouch builds AI agents to automate the trillion-dollar marketing agency industry.
* We’ve grown insanely fast in the last 9 months (can share numbers privately), and power the growth systems for nearly 50+ of the fastest-growing companies in the world.
* Marketing is a series of micro-decisions based on responses to data. Maintouch connects to all your marketing data sources to plan and execute growth strategies like an expert would.
* I (founder) grew up working at my family’s marketing agency. We’re taking those learnings to automate all that work.
* Lean team of 8. Ex-founders and experts working in person in SoHo, NYC.
**Why join?**
* You're selling a product people genuinely love. Customers come in skeptical and leave telling their friends.
* We're transitioning out of founder-led sales. The motions are working, the pipeline is real, and now we need someone to own it and make it theirs.
* You're AE #3. Early enough to shape how we sell, late enough that you're not selling into the void. There's revenue, there's signal, there's momentum.
* Autonomy. This is a full cycle. You source your own leads, run your own deals, and close them. No handoffs, no BDR feeding you pipeline. You eat what you kill.
* 50/50 split. We believe in paying for performance, and we've set comp to reflect that.
* Get to tell your grandkids you helped build a generation-defining company in the LLM boom.
**What you'll do:**
* Own the full sales cycle end-to-end. Prospecting, outreach, discovery, demo, negotiation, close. The whole thing is yours.
* Build pipeline from scratch. Cold outbound, warm inbound, creative angles — whatever it takes. You're not waiting around for leads to show up.
* Run demos that actually land. You'll understand the product deeply enough to show founders exactly how Maintouch solves their #1 problem.
* Help build the sales machine. Document what works, kill what doesn't. Turn scrappy founder-led selling into a repeatable, scalable motion.
* Work directly with the founder and marketing to sharpen positioning, refine ICP, and figure out what messaging converts.
* Talk to customers constantly. You're the closest person to the market. Feed insights back into product, marketing, and everything we do.
* Close deals that directly generate millions in pipeline a month. This isn't a "build relationships and check in quarterly" role. You will be closing a lot.
**What we’re looking for**
* Has sold into startups or SMBs and knows how to move fast with founders who don't have time to waste.
* Proven closer. You have a track record of hitting and exceeding quota, and you can show it.
* Comfortable sourcing your own pipeline. You don't need a BDR team or a marketing machine to hit your number.
* Genuinely curious about AI and what it's doing to marketing. You don't need to be technical, but you need to get it and get excited about it.
* Absolute grinder.
* Comfortable with ambiguity and rapid change.
* Has worked at a high-growth startup and thrived in the chaos.
**About the process**
We move fast: screener → behavioral → case study → in-person → offer.
Start date ASAP. No remote. No students.
If this sounds exciting, we’d love to chat.
