About White Circle

White Circle is an AI Safety company building the safety, reliability, and optimization layer for AI systems. At the core of our platform are policies – simple natural-language rules that define what an AI model should and shouldn’t do. We automatically test, enforce, and continuously improve these policies at scale.

  • We’ve raised $11M from top funds, founders, and senior leaders at OpenAI, Anthropic, HuggingFace, Mistral, DeepMind, Datadog, Sentry, and others

  • We process over 100M+ API calls every month

  • We fine-tune and train our own LLMs so they run faster and cheaper than any open or proprietary model

We’re a small, highly focused team. If you want to work deeply on hard problems, see your work ship to production quickly, and influence how AI safety is actually built – you’re the one we need.

What you'll do

  • Own the entire sales cycle, from prospecting and qualification through close and expansion

  • Develop relationships with AI leaders, engineering teams, platform teams, security teams, and executive stakeholders

  • Run product demos and help customers understand how White Circle fits into their AI stack

  • Navigate complex buying processes involving technical teams, legal, procurement, and executive decision-makers

  • Identify high-value use cases and guide customers through evaluation and deployment

  • Work closely with CEO on strategic opportunities

  • Provide structured customer feedback to product and engineering teams

  • Help develop the messaging, sales process, and playbooks that will support future growth

  • Drive pipeline, revenue, and customer adoption

We're looking for someone who

  • Has experience selling technical B2B software to enterprise customers

  • Can quickly understand complex technical products and communicate their value clearly

  • Is comfortable speaking with both engineers and executives

  • Can operate effectively without established playbooks or rigid processes

  • Has strong commercial instincts and excellent communication skills

  • Thrives in fast-moving environments where priorities evolve quickly

  • Is fluent in English

A big plus if you

  • Have sold AI, infrastructure, developer tools, cybersecurity, cloud, or platform products

  • Have been an early sales hire at a startup

  • Have experience as a software engineer, solutions engineer, sales engineer, or in another technical role

  • Have founded a company or built something from scratch

What success looks like after 12 months

  • You've closed and expanded strategic customer relationships

  • You've helped establish repeatable sales processes and messaging

  • You've built strong relationships across the AI ecosystem

  • Customer feedback has directly influenced product decisions

Why White Circle

  • Salary: $140,000 - $180,000 base

  • Performance-based bonus

  • Meaningful equity package

  • Fully remote within the US

  • All the hardware, tools, and services you need

  • Covered subscriptions for AI agents and IDEs

  • Paid time off in line with your local regulations, no matter where you work from
