You will be the founding commercial lead for an NYC-based startup building voice AI for local businesses. Owning the entire zero-to-one sales motion, you'll define the ideal customer profile, close the first batch of users, and build the company's commercial DNA from scratch. This is a high-intensity, founder-caliber role.
Founding GTM Lead at early-stage AI voice startup
Small businesses like pizza shops and salons live and die by the phone, but they simply don't have the bandwidth to answer every call—leading to lost revenue and frustrated customers. We are looking for a Founding GTM Lead in NYC to join our technical team and own the entire commercial engine, from defining our ideal customer profile to closing the first critical accounts. This is a rare opportunity for a high-hustle individual to take founder-level equity and build the sales playbook from scratch for a well-funded AI startup that is solving a massive, real-world problem for local commerce.
