AchillesHR
Who We Are: Achilles builds AI agents for HR teams hiring frontline workers. Our product, Sam, handles the entire hiring pipeline-creating resumes, conducting multi-lingual voice and text interviews, and scheduling final interviews. No human intervention required.
We've built a solid founder-led sales process with clear ICP, proven messaging, and a playbook that works. Now we need our first AE to close deals and help scale what's working and be a key force in developing our scalable sales motion.
The Role: Full-cycle AE role. You'll work meetings from SDRs (they're booking 15-20 monthly) but you're also expected to hunt your own deals. This isn't a sit-and-wait-for-demos position.
You'll sell into manufacturing plants, distribution centers, and hospitality groups. These buyers haven't purchased AI agents before-you'll be educating them on what's possible while solving real hiring problems.
Deals range from $12K to six figures. Some close in two meetings, others take 6 months. Average cycle is 1-3 months. You'll manage a mixed pipeline and need to be comfortable with both transactional and enterprise sales motions.
What You'll Do:
* Own the full sales cycle from prospect to close
* Work on both SDR-sourced and self-sourced opportunities
* Demo to HR leaders and operations executives across manufacturing and hospitality
* Travel to customer sites when needed
* Handle light onboarding for new accounts and identify expansion opportunities
* Share market feedback with the product team
* Help document what works as we build the sales team
Requirements:
* 1+ years of closing experience with documented success
* Comfortable cold calling and prospecting
* HR tech or industrial tech background is a major plus
* Experience selling into frontline industries (manufacturing, logistics, hospitality) is a major plus
* Experience with new product categories or AI products is valuable but not required
Location: In-person role. Office location near Soho in Hudson Square.
Why This Role: You're not joining a 50-person sales team with rigid processes. You'll work directly with the CEO who previously scaled revenue selling to similar verticals to $20M. Your input will directly influence our sales strategy and product development. This is a chance to be part of building the playbook, not just executing it.
Our Principles:
* Customer First - Focus on solving real problems
* High Velocity, High Quality - Move fast without compromising standards
* Best Idea Wins - Data and results matter more than hierarchy
* We Play to Win - Competitive drive for customers and company
* The Hard Is What Makes It Great - We tackle difficult challenges
* Extreme Ownership - Own outcomes completely
What We Offer
* Top of market cash and equity for top of market candidates
* In-office working in NYC and opportunities for ongoing collaboration
* Daily $50 meal subsidization provided via a Ramp credit card
* 100% subsidized health, dental, and vision insurance
* 401(k) plan options
* $250 Wellness subsidization
