Sales Director

NorthGravity, Houston, TX, United States


We’re Hiring: Founding Sales Hunter – Energy x AI (Houston)

Houston is the energy capital of the world.

AI is rewriting how trading desks operate.

NorthGravity sits right in the middle.

We’re looking for aggressive, high-upside sales hunter who wants to build a market — not inherit a territory.

If you want to:

  • Sell real AI / LLM-driven technology (not buzzwords)
  • Break into hedge funds, energy traders, and commodity firms
  • Own Houston for a fast-growing company
  • Get in early and grow fast

About NorthGravity

NorthGravity is a high-growth data technology company headquartered in Chicago and Kraków.

We power data collection, QA, and LLM-enabled intelligence workflows for:

  • Hedge Funds
  • Energy Traders
  • Power & Gas companies
  • Banks and commodity firms

Our clients rely on us to make smarter, faster trading and risk decisions.

We’re expanding in Texas — and this hire will help define our presence here.

The Role: Founding Sales Rep – Houston

This is not a maintenance role.

This is not a cushy account manager seat.

This is a build-the-market, win-new-logos, own-the-region role.

You will:

  • Hunt new business across energy, commodities, and financial firms
  • Prospect aggressively and build pipeline from scratch
  • Run sharp discovery calls to uncover data and workflow pain points
  • Sell LLM-powered data and automation tools directly into trading workflows
  • Work closely with product & engineering to tailor solutions
  • Support and grow local Houston clients post-sale
  • Deliver demos, onboard new accounts, and drive adoption
  • Represent NorthGravity at Houston energy and commodity events

You will be the face of NorthGravity in Houston.

Who This Is Perfect For

You might be 2–5 years into your career and thinking:

“I don’t want to be average.”

“I want to sell something real.”

“I want exposure to serious markets and serious clients.”

“I want upside.”

You:

  • Have 2–4+ years of B2B sales experience
  • Have closed deals (not just supported them)
  • Love the hunt — outbound doesn’t scare you
  • Want to deeply understand energy and commodity markets
  • Get excited about AI, automation, and LLM technology
  • Are competitive, ambitious, and coachable
  • Want to grow into a senior role as the company scales
  • Are based in Houston or ready to relocate

You don’t need to be an energy expert — but you need to be obsessed with learning.

Why This Is a Career Accelerator

  • You’ll sell into hedge funds and trading desks early in your career
  • You’ll build domain expertise in energy + AI (a powerful combo)
  • You’ll work directly with founders, product, and engineering
  • You’ll have real ownership of a major U.S. market
  • You’ll have strong performance-based upside
  • You’ll join while we’re scaling — not after it’s built

If you want to look back in 3–5 years and say,

“That’s where my career took off” — this is that role.

The Opportunity

Houston runs global energy markets.

NorthGravity powers the data behind those markets.

Now we need a hunter to connect the two.

If you’re ambitious, competitive, and ready to build — let’s talk.
