About the role
tl;dr: we’re hiring our first Sales role. You will work with our CEO/co-founder to grow Agave from $Xm ARR to $XXm ARR+. Ideally, you are a hungry, scrappy, and energetic AE, pumped to bet on a career-defining role at a fast-growing, early-stage startup. Min. 2+ YoE closing deals in a quota-carrying role at a b2b SaaS company, ideally with experience selling into construction. More details here (link).

ROLE
We’ve made a ton of progress through founder-led sales (140+ customers, seven-figures ARR, cash-flow positive). Now, we’re seeking the right person to help us grow even faster.
You’ll own the day to day execution of our full sales cycle while working with our CEO/co-founder on all aspects of revenue - from defining ICPs and GTM strategy, to pricing details and contract terms. You’ll be the expert on our customers’ needs - our CTO and CPO will ask for your input when planning sprints and new features.
We expect you to ramp fast since you’re stepping-into a sales motion that’s working well. You’ll have an existing pipeline, refined collateral, meeting templates, a tidy CRM, and SMEs to run demos and answer domain-specific nuances. You’ll have strong inbound and referrals, which you’ll continue to convert at a high rate. You’ll build our outbound motion as we expand our product and enter new segments in construction.
To do all of this, you will need to be unique. While typical AEs execute existing playbooks, you will need to write a better one. You are not a coin-operated salesperson looking for a 9-to-5. You are a hungry, scrappy, and energetic AE, pumped to bet on a career-defining role at a fast-growing, early-stage startup. Your potential for impact will extend far beyond the ARR you close.
COMPENSATION
We want AEs eager to bet on themselves and the company, motivated by the upside in the role.
Compensation shown consists of base + commission (OTE), with meaningful equity.
Nothing makes our founders happier than writing fat commission checks for well-qualified customers we retain. We ring gongs for each deal.
WHY JOIN US
Opportunity: you have the chance to be an early, pivotal member of a fast-growing YC startup modernizing one of the world's largest and most critical industries (construction). You'll work with our world-class engineers to deliver and expand our core product.
Team: you'll work with a formidable founding team that's experienced, intense, and ambitious. We've worked together for 10 years, first at a startup that Amazon acquired, then at Amazon, and now at Agave. You'll learn a ton while having outsized ownership. You’ll have a front-row seat to the good, bad, and ugly of building a company from the ground up.
Timing: you're joining at a key inflection point. We're proven (4x revenue growth YoY, 140+ customers) but also early. This means you have lower risk but also huge upside.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Your core role is to help construction general/trade contractors automate work through software integration, saving time and grow their company more profitably. To do this, you will own our end-to-end sales process, including:
Lead gen + prospecting: research potential customers, generate leads, and build a consistent outbound sales pipeline. Attend industry events and develop connections to drive future sales growth.
Outreach + engagement: contact leads via email, cold calls, job-site visits, conferences, and more. Manage inbound and referral leads shared by external partners who co-sell with us.
Qualification + closing: run discovery calls, demos (with our technical SME experts), and follow-ups to qualify close new customers. Build proposals and RoI cases that convince qualified prospects to buy Agave. Negotiate contract terms when needed.
Process improvement: improve our internal sales processes (slides, call scripts, meeting templates, contract terms, CRM workflows, metrics, dashboards, etc.). Run weekly “Sales Review” meetings company-wide to review deals and answer questions.
Cross-team work: work with Customer Success, Engineering, and Product to consistently delight customers. Work with our co-founding team on all things sales and revenue related.
This is a unique role with potential to expand into a Sales leadership position quickly as we grow, reporting directly into the CEO.
REQUIREMENTS
Hard requirements:
2+ years of sales experience: 2+ YoE closing deals in a quota-carrying role at a b2b SaaS company. You understand the collaboration, process, and tenacity required to close 5-6 figure b2B SaaS contracts.
Construction sales experience: experience selling software into the construction industry with a track record of success.
Prior sales success: strong record evidenced by quota attainment, customer retention, and manager feedback.
In-person: pumped to work in-person in SF 5 days per week with our team.
Soft requirements:
Hands-on: you have been a successful IC and want to continue being one. You must love operating in the messy weeds of finding prospects and closing them. You do not want to be an armchair expert.
Owner mindset: you are self-directed and able to work with minimal supervision. We can trust you to disqualify poor-fit customers instead of signing them. Where there’s a gap, you fill it without asking.
Clear + persuasive communication: you love writing crisp follow-up emails to customers and articulating compelling counterpoints to their hesitations.
Strong EQ: you know when to listen and when to sell. You are attuned to social signals, especially on Zoom.
Uncanny ability to deliver results: you get the job done consistently, doing any task needed to deliver on time. You're gritty and not easily discouraged.
Product curiosity: you are curious about how our product works, and act to understand it in more detail than is typical for a salesperson.
Nice to have:
Experience at a startup, ideally Series B/C or earlier.
Familiarity with accounting concepts and nuances.
BENEFITS
Healthcare: we cover 90% of your healthcare costs with several plan options.
401k: we match 100% of your contributions, up to 4% of annual salary.
Relocation: sizable relocation bonus for folks currently located outside of the Bay Area.
Gym: on-site gym with Peloton, squat rack, Tempo, Yoga setup, and more.
Visa: we sponsor Visas (H1B, TN, etc.) for candidates who are a good fit!
IN-PERSON
We've built Agave in-person since day 1, and will maintain an in-person culture in San Francisco going forward. We form tighter bonds, build a stronger culture, and move faster since we're all working from one location. Our office is just west of Twin Peaks, 1 block from a bus stop, 10min walk from a BART station, and a 5min drive off the 101 and 280. Our entire team commutes here every day. We believe building in-person is a huge strategic advantage, and we hope you’ll join us.

About the interview
At each stage, we decide and update you within 24hrs:

Intro (15min.) [Virtual]: informal chat for you to learn more about the role. We'll ask for details on your past roles and what you're looking for next. We want to know that you meet our basic requirements and can speak about your work clearly. You’re welcome to ask lots of questions about whether working at Agave makes sense for you.
(Depends on your background)
On-site (60min. x 5 people) [In-Person in SF, we pay for travel]: you'll interview with each co-founder and our lead dev. This will be a deeper dive into your experience, sales fluency, and overall fit. Each interview is 1hr, 45min for our questions and 15min for yours.

Yes (TN, OPT, H1B Transfer); open to US and CAN candidates

We're looking for candidates who are pumped to work in-person with us in SF 5 days/week!

Location: SF or relocate. Work Type: On-site, 5-6 days/week. Visa: Sponsorship available. Salary: $130K-$200K. Requirements: 5+ years, freight tech, LLMs (OpenAI API, Langchain, HuggingFace), fullstack (NodeJS, Typescript), AWS, CI/CD, JavaScript, REST APIs, startup drive. Responsibilities: Innovate in freight space, collaborate with CTO, develop AI-driven SaaS.

FleetWorks automates the 2B phone calls and emails that the freight industry makes every year. We use voice synthesis, generative AI, and integrations with logistics systems to solve the largest cost in this industry - people.When Uber Freight needs to ship a truckload of Coca-Cola going from Phoenix to Bentonville. They can use FleetWorks to call the driver to get an ETA, alert the receiver and shipper that the driver is running late, and reschedule the appointment - all with automated text messages, phone calls, and emails.❌ THE PROBLEM:Getting freight from point A to point B is still largely handled by humans. Digitized brokers have driven automation, but most day-to-day operations are still handled over phone and email between millions of humans around the world. Given this overhead, freight brokerages operate on low single-digit margins.Three roles in a freight brokerage spend a significant part of their day on repetitive tasks:<ol><li>Track and trace agents → Identify loads that are not being tracked automatically via apps, telematics, or aggregators. They reach out via phone or email to the driver or dispatcher for an update.</li><li>Load coverage and carrier sales → Handle inbound/outbound calls to/from trucking companies that are interested to book loads. Information like weight, commodity, and appointment time is shared. Then the parties negotiate on price.</li><li>Appointment schedulers → Set appointment times for unscheduled loads by calling or emailing facilities, or logging into customer portals. Due to unforeseen issues, 20-30% of appointments need to be rescheduled at the last minute resulting in even more work.</li></ol>✨ OUR SOLUTION:FleetWorks sits alongside a broker’s phone, email, and transportation management system (TMS). Calls and emails can be triggered automatically or manually, and relevant information is automatically pushed to the TMS or email for operators to take action.FleetWorks can automatically<ol><li>Book loads: Share load details, discuss price, and book the carrier.</li><li>Track loads: Call the driver and update the account team on issues.</li><li>Schedule appointments: Email or call facilities that don’t have a booking portal.</li></ol>💲 THE OPPORTUNITY:There are 150 large brokers in the U.S. (&gt;$100M gross revenue) and they are taking share from small brokers. These brokers alone spend $11B on operational headcount and 70% of headcount is involved in repetitive work.These operators conduct 1 billion phone calls per year to manage load execution. Today, these calls cost $5-15 depending on complexity. At a rate of $1 per successful call (10x cheaper than the status quo), we believe our near-term market opportunity is $1B.Given the $11B of spend on operational headcount, FleetWorks provides significant margin expansion for our customers.

We'll be in-person in NYC starting in June.

Complete (YC W22) is changing the way fast-growth companies &amp; startups like Render, Linear, Vercel and DataStax think about compensation. We’ve grown our revenue 3x this year and are at an inflection point where we need to grow our team significantly over the next 6 months.

Co-founder & CTO

Complete (YC W22)

As Complete's founding engineer, you'll play a key role in delivering on our mission to bring transparency to startup compensation. You'll be responsible for collaborating with product, design, engineers, and even directly with customers to produce world-class products for candidates, employees, and talent teams. As a full-stack engineer, you will own the delivery of products end-to-end, from writing database migrations to building and styling React components.

Our excitement about our mission and our stage of company requires a commitment from every employee, equally establishing a high bar of autonomy and responsibility.

Complete HQ is in San Francisco, and we're looking to build out the team in SF.

Founding Full-Stack Engineer

We're only able to support H1B transfers and TN visas

Complete HQ is in San Francisco, and we're looking to build out the team in SF. We're not open to hybrid or remote, but we understand if folks have things going on that they need to work from home to handle!

At Vellum, our mission is to be the primary platform companies use to bring AI into production. AI is the biggest platform shift since the internet, the applications are everywhere! With foundation models getting better we expect the world to be dramatically different in the future. We intend to be the platform layer to bring this amazing technology to life in production use cases.We enable companies to bring real business value from AI / LLMs. The output generated by AI / LLMs is usually stochastic and bringing AI into production requires robust testing and choosing the right model for the job. We’ve seen companies spend months of engineering time building good tooling for this (time which could be spent on their core end user facing product) and despite this they struggle to get the best results out of these models. Our platform provides companies best in class tooling to use their own data in production AI applications.We’re a YC W23 company, raised $9.5m and are backed by top investors like Rebel Fund, Eastlink Capital, Arash Ferdowsi (co-founder of Dropbox), Dharmesh Shah (co-founder of Hubspot), Dan Scholnick (board member of Weights &amp; Biases, Docker, New Relic), and Divya Bhat (former YC group partner, 2x CEO). We announced our fundraise on TechCrunch here: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://techcrunch.com/2023/07/11/prompt-engineering-startup-vellum-ai/">https://techcrunch.com/2023/07/11/prompt-engineering-startup-vellum-ai/</a>We’re excited to build our core team. The initial team will play a key role in the long term growth of the company.​P.S: Why the name Vellum? - Vellum is a type of paper - the Magna Carta was written on Vellum. We intend to be the standard source of record in production - You can’t spell Vellum without LLM 😉

What you’re signing up for
Tackling our most difficult (and interesting) problems - prompt chaining, fine-tuning infrastructure, and multimodality, just to name a few
Designing, architecting, and building robust critical infrastructure
Owning our most important backend systems
Defining and scoping green-field projects that move the company forward
Working closely with customers to understand what the need, figuring out how to make them successful, and owning the solutions end to end
Serving as a cultural pillar of the team
Navigating a fast-moving, highly competitive landscape
Our stack

In case you’re curious:

Google Cloud Platform - as our cloud provider
Postgres - as our primary database
Python - what we write our backend in
Django - for our webservers
Flask - for our microservices
Typescript - what we write our frontend in
React - as our frontend framework
Working at Vellum
We’re laser focused on helping companies bring AI into production and providing real business value. Decision making is simple: if what we do allows our users to increase how many use cases of AI they’re able to successfully put into production, then we do it!
Don’t just cut corners. Cut the right corners (i.e. reduce scope, not quality). What can you do with 10% of your time to get 90% of the desired impact? Now that you only spent 10% of the time on this task, imagine how much more can be done with the rest of your time!
Everyone is a 1000x engineer/designer/pm when they’re passionate about the problems they’re solving and love the people they’re working with
Because we trust each other, we can move fast and have fun doing it 😄
