  • Experience closing enterprise deals and selling in HR technology.

  • Outbound prospecting experience, with evidence of building pipeline and a hunter mindset through work, internships, campus sales, SDR experience, or self-directed outreach.

  • Experience at a startup or small business, or the ability to operate with limited infrastructure and ambiguity.

  • Strong communication and problem-solving skills; interest in HR, finance, or AI is valuable.

  • Authorized to work in the United States without visa sponsorship.
