About the CompanyOur partner is a fast-growing legal tech startup whose software automatically captures billable hours for law firms, saving attorneys hours of administrative work each week and helping firms recover meaningful lost revenue. The product has exceptional traction, a 97% pilot win rate, zero customer churn across a growing base, and a strong referral engine. The team is small, smart, and informal, with people who play up and down the stack, work hard, and expect to win while enjoying the ride.
The OpportunityThis is a founding-stage Account Executive seat with an unusually clear path to earnings and growth. You will primarily take qualified demos and close deals, with the product doing a lot of the selling thanks to obvious ROI and very happy customers. As the company moves upmarket, you will have the opportunity to grow into larger, more complex deals and significantly higher earnings.
You will report directly to the go-to-market co-founder and work in a flat, fast-moving org where strong individual contributors are rewarded generously for winning.
