About the Role

Winning highly competitive deals by positioning Rootly as the incident management and on-call platform of choice for enterprise buyer segments.
Designing and presenting product narratives and insights to executives within named accounts.
Working with company leaders from multiple functions to lead product workshops and prepare and present ROI analyses.
Leading and contributing to team projects to develop and refine our sales process.

What You'll Need

Enterprise sales experience: you have 7+ years selling enterprise software to SMB and enterprise accounts.
Quota ownership: you have owned enterprise software quotas of US$1M+.
Product and domain expertise: you love becoming an expert, sell consultatively, and teach prospects something at every touchpoint.

Exceptional communication: you communicate incredibly well, both remotely and in person.

Autonomy: you do your best work in a highly ambiguous, fast-paced environment.
Technical fluency: you are comfortable communicating the value of technical B2B SaaS solutions to technical stakeholders.

Why Rootly?

We're not just another startup. We're building something category-defining and want teammates who crave ownership, love solving hard problems, and thrive in a high-bar, high-impact environment.
Here's what you can expect when you join Rootly:

Competitive compensation and early equity in a fast-growing, venture-backed company.

Our team is growing, and this is a newly created vacancy that we may hire more than one person to fill.
As we build out the team, we may use AI to support parts of our interview process, like reviewing assessments, but it’s a tool that helps our people, not a substitute for their judgment.
