AI in this role
SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today, SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary and expanding consciousness to the stars.
SpaceXSI is building Super Intelligence to help humanity understand the universe. Our teams are building the full Super Intelligence stack: from our Colossus supercomputers, to Grok models, to our suite of applications, including Grok Bot, Grok Build, Grok Imagine, Grok Voice, and X. We're creating a powerful flywheel where more compute trains better models, better models power more useful products, and what we learn from people using those products shapes what we build next.

RESPONSIBILITIES:
Own a named book of strategic enterprise accounts across Japan, driving new logo acquisition and expansion revenue; run a disciplined, full-cycle sales process from prospecting and discovery through evaluation, negotiation, and close

Navigate complex enterprise buying processes, including security reviews, legal negotiations, procurement, and multi-stakeholder approval cycles
Serve as the voice of Japan's enterprise customers internally, sharing market feedback and deal learnings with Product, Marketing, Customer Success, and GTM leadership
Help establish SpaceXSI's enterprise presence in Japan by building repeatable motions, local market insights, and early customer references; consistently meet and exceed quarterly and annual revenue targets
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

Ideally selling developer tools, infrastructure, cloud, security, AI, or other technical SaaS products to engineering-led organizations
Experience selling into strategic or large enterprise accounts in Japan
Comfortable navigating complex buying committees across engineering, IT, security, legal, procurement, finance, and executive stakeholders
A true hunter: you proactively build pipeline from scratch through outbound prospecting, creative sourcing, executive engagement, and persistent follow-up
Strong command of pipeline management, account planning, and forecasting across a strategic book of business
Energized by technical products and can hold credible conversations with senior engineers, platform leaders, and CTOs about how SpaceXSI fits into modern development workflows
A self-starter who thrives in an early-stage, resource-constrained environment and can build process, playbooks, and regional learnings as you go
Care deeply about AI and believe transforming how software is written is one of the most important problems to work on right now
