Description

Backed by Sequoia Capital, Y-Combinator, and other top valley firms, our team has raised $25m to revolutionizing modern marketing and product experiences with AI videos. Tavus is a leading AI synthetic media startup focused on making personalized video experiences scalable. Tavus uses artificial intelligence deepfake technology to generate realistic videos that perfectly imitate customer's gestures and voice- it's pretty stellar. Think Loom or Vidyard, but you can create thousands of hyper-personalized videos with the click of a button. Check it out for yourself 😎

We're looking for a Founding Account Executive to join our team and own topline revenue goals who will primarily sell full cycle to revenue leaders, although there are several additional personas commonly seen. At Tavus you will be responsible for running a consultative sales approach with inbound leads, working on motions to secure strategic upmarket accounts, ensuring customer see success with a smooth handoff to the CS team, and strategically innovating to improve the sales process. This role is outcome oriented, and it's important to execute quickly, use data to evaluate results, and iterate. We're looking for someone who can both execute to a high degree, as well as think strategically about ICP, sales motion, and the customer journey.

Why the word "founding"? You'll be AE #2, and while we have had amazing growth and traction, we're looking for an innovator who can not just roll with quick changes, but lead the charge on improving, optimizing, and evolving our sales process to best achieve our objectives. Whether it's revamping pricing, our legal contracts, or even marketing or customer success efforts, you'll work closely with the full GTM team to drive Tavus forward.

Our sales efforts are limitless as Tavus is a sales product at it's core. You will have an awesome opportunity to set up Tavus for success, while using Tavus.

Please note that this position is hybrid in San Francisco and New York (office opening soon), although Tavus offers remote opportunities outside of these cities.
