Resend
Founding Sales Engineer
Over 1M developers have used Resend, and we're onboarding hundreds of new paying customers every day. We've built enrichment and segmentation systems to identify high-value accounts across our inbound funnel. Founder-led sales have closed enterprise deals. We've brought in experienced GTM help to build early infrastructure and playbooks. There's a foundation here - now we need someone to build on it. This is a founding role. You'll take what exists, pressure-test it, expand it, and create our first repeatable sales motion. In This Role, You Will
Work high-intent inbound from enriched, segmented enterprise logos and high-growth companies Build on existing playbooks - we have hypotheses and early wins; you'll validate, iterate, and scale what works Run experiments across messaging, timing, and channels to find repeatability Expand existing customers by identifying accounts that could benefit from higher tiers or additional products Prevent churn by distinguishing accounts worth saving from natural lifecycle churn Be the voice of the customer internally - feeding learnings back to product, marketing, and success Document everything - your learnings become the playbook the team builds on You'll Be A Great Fit If You
You've built before. Founding AE, early sales hire, or transitioned from BizOps/RevOps/Success into sales. You know what it's like to operate without a finished playbook. You're customer-obsessed. Genuinely curious about customers' problems. Comfortable working with deeply technical infrastructure engineers and newer developers alike. You meet people where they are. You think like a scientist. Hypotheses, tests, measurements, iteration. You're trying to learn something with every conversation. You document and share. Not a lone wolf. You write things down and make the whole team smarter from your work. You're technical enough. You don't need to be a developer, but you can hold a credible conversation about infrastructure, APIs, and email deliverability. You care about craft. You notice sloppy details. You believe sales can and should be done with the same care as great product. You're comfortable with travel. Conferences, prospect on-sites, team events and everything in between to help drive value to our users. What It Means To Join The Team
First 3-6 months focused on learning and experimentation, not rigid quotas Work directly with founders who are invested in building this function the right way Clear path to define quotas together based on what we learn Team-oriented culture - we're exploring shared quota models as we scale Honest, low-ego team with autonomy to ship 100% remote with flexible schedule Comp: $160,000 - $220,000 USD OTE (base + variable), commensurate with experience About Resend
We are building the modern email sending platform for developers. We care deeply about quality, creating for everyone and building in the open. We started with an open source project in 2022. Now, we onboard nearly 100 paying customers every day and foster a growing developer community. Our fully remote team of 28 humans spans 7 countries... and counting. We're backed by a16z, Y Combinator, Basecase, and other top investors.
