Commission About Us

We’re ClosedWon Talent, a sales & go-to-market recruiting agency that specializes in working with fast-growing startups. If you're exploring your next move, we might have just the opportunity for you...including this one! Company Overview

We’re helping a high-growth, developer-first infrastructure startup that just delivered 3x revenue growth year over year and is now scaling its go-to-market team intentionally. They sell a core piece of infrastructure that sits deep in the payments stack and solves a painful, expensive problem for technical teams. Their product protects sensitive card data before it ever reaches a customer’s systems, allowing companies to dramatically reduce compliance scope and security overhead while keeping existing payment workflows intact. Buyers include engineering, product, security, and finance leaders who are tired of PCI complexity, audits, and slowing down development just to stay compliant. Role Overview

We’re hiring the third Account Executive to join a small but growing sales team in New York City. This is an API-led, discovery-first sales motion. There is no flashy demo doing the work for you. You win deals by asking sharp questions, understanding how payments and data flow through a system, and helping buyers see a cleaner, lower-risk way forward. You’ll run a mix of mid-market and enterprise deals, ranging from fast-moving opportunities to longer, multi-stakeholder sales cycles. There is strong inbound momentum today, plus a deliberate push to build a real outbound engine. AEs are expected to prospect, not just wait for leads. Comp is structured around a monthly platform fee plus usage, so you’ll sell both initial value and long-term expansion. What You’ll Be Doing
