Read the full description
What You'll Do
* Own the full sales cycle: prospect, qualify, run discovery and demos, navigate procurement and security review, negotiate, and close new business.
* Build and manage a portfolio of engineering organizations, hardware companies, and aerospace/defense customers.
* Run complex, multi-threaded deals across technical, executive, and procurement stakeholders, often spanning long sales cycles and multi-year contracts.
* Develop and execute account plans that land initial deals and expand them over time.
* Partner closely with product and engineering to relay customer feedback and influence the roadmap.
* Develop a deep understanding of Flow's platform and the technical workflows of our customers, including how AI agents support systems engineering.
* Represent Flow at industry events, conferences, and customer meetings.
* Collaborate with leadership to refine positioning, pricing, and go-to-market strategy.
* 30 - 50% travel expected
About You
* 5+ years of sales experience, including 3+ years of closing in B2B SaaS, ideally selling to technical or engineering buyers.
* Track record of consistently hitting or exceeding quota on large, complex deals.
* Experience navigating long, multi-stakeholder enterprise sales cycles, including technical, executive, and procurement audiences.
* Comfortable selling six and seven figure deals and managing formal procurement, security, and legal review.
* Strong discovery and consultative selling skills: you listen first and lead with customer problems.
* Comfortable working in a high-ownership, fast-paced environment where you build process as you go.
* Familiarity with engineering, PLM, or requirements management tools is a plus.
How We Work & Values
* Speed over everything: move fast, run experiments, learn quickly.
* Own, downscope, ship, iterate: one clear owner per deal and initiative, from first contact to close.
* Fundamentals done well: rigorous discovery, clear documentation, and thoughtful follow-through are part of every deal, not an afterthought.
Compensation & Benefits
* Competitive salary and meaningful equity.
* Health, dental, and vision coverage.
* Flexible time off and support for continued learning and staying current with the AI ecosystem.
