The story behind this role

This is not a “manage inbound leads” type of sales role.

At Cheesecake Labs, we work with companies that are trying to solve complex business and technology problems — often involving product strategy, engineering, AI, modernization, or digital transformation initiatives. That means our sales process is highly consultative, multi-stakeholder, and relationship-driven.

We’re looking for someone who genuinely enjoys hunting: opening doors, building trust with senior decision-makers, navigating ambiguity, and turning complex conversations into long-term partnerships.

This is a senior, quota-carrying role reporting directly to our CEO.

What this role actually looks like

This is a true full-cycle hunter role.

On a typical week, you might:

• Build your own pipeline from scratch through outbound efforts, networking, referrals, and strategic prospecting
• Lead executive-level discovery conversations with senior stakeholders across product, technology, and business teams
• Work closely with Solutions Architects and leadership to shape tailored solutions for clients
• Navigate long and complex sales cycles involving multiple stakeholders, technical discussions, procurement, legal, and executive alignment
• Own proposal discussions, commercial negotiations, MSAs, and SOW conversations
• Represent Cheesecake Labs in industry events, conferences, and executive conversations
• Stay engaged post-sale to ensure strong handoffs, relationship continuity, and future expansion opportunities

Some conversations will be highly strategic.
Others will require deep problem-solving and commercial positioning.

Most are a mix of both.

What tends to work well here

We’ve seen that people who thrive in this role usually:

• Have strong experience selling services within digital product agencies, technology consultancies, or software engineering companies
• Have a proven track record closing complex B2B deals ($200K+ ACV) that they sourced and closed themselves
• Enjoy building pipeline from zero and don’t rely heavily on inbound support
• Feel comfortable discussing technology, product strategy, and digital transformation topics at a business level
• Know how to build credibility and trust with senior executives through thoughtful conversations — not just sales scripts
• Operate well with autonomy, accountability, and minimal micromanagement
• Already use AI as part of their day-to-day workflow — whether for prospecting, research, preparation, organization, messaging, or improving productivity overall

This probably won’t be your thing if

Just to be transparent:

• You prefer inbound-heavy sales environments with pre-qualified opportunities
• You’re uncomfortable with cold outreach, outbound prospecting, and building pipeline from scratch
• You prefer transactional sales cycles over consultative, multi-stakeholder enterprise conversations
• You’re looking for a highly managed environment with constant direction and oversight

There’s nothing wrong with any of that — it’s just not how we operate.

Compensation:

• Base: $100K USD
• Uncapped commission
• OTE: $250K-$350K, with upside for top performers
• Strong autonomy, direct access to leadership, real influence on GTM strategy

One last thing

This role is open to candidates based in the United States , preferably near major business or technology hubs.

Open to remote work, with willingness to travel for key meetings and events.

Not sure if you check every box?

That’s okay.

We know that many great people — especially from underrepresented groups — hesitate to apply unless they meet 100% of the requirements.

If this role sounds interesting, we’d still love to hear from you.
