We're hiring our founding Account Executive at Imagine AI (YC F25). This isn't a traditional AE role. You own the entire customer relationship, from first demo to onboarding, adoption, and expansion. Part salesperson, part strategic consultant, part customer success. You're also building the playbook. This is the foundation we hire from as we scale. Who we serve: 30+ companies from Seed to IPO'd. 12 closed since January alone. What we're looking for: -> 3-5+ years B2B SaaS, ideally marketing software or tools sold to GTM leaders -> Early-stage experience where you built process from scratch -> Customer-obsessed with rice farmer mentality In-person SF. Transparent comp modeled after PostHog. Massive inbound pipeline waiting for you from day one. Comment your email below, or if you think someone else is suitable, come and tag them👇
Love this framing, especially “part salesperson, part strategic consultant, part CS.” For a product like Imagine AI, the founding AE isn’t just closing deals, they’re stress-testing positioning in real time. Big leverage areas I see: • Refining ICP clarity across Seed → IPO spectrum • Tightening objection handling around “AI authenticity” • Turning revenue case studies into repeatable sales narratives • Building expansion playbooks tied to content-driven pipeline metrics I’ve been working across GTM positioning + revenue-focused growth strategies and would love to connect.

Congrats on the traction, 12 closed since January is huge 👏 Hiring a founding AE is a critical one. Vintti can bring vetted candidates with early-stage SaaS experience in under 21 days check your dm!
Founding AE roles are usually sold as “more upside.” The real difference is tolerance for ambiguity. You’re not stepping into quota and process. You’re deciding what good even looks like. What to qualify out. Where to spend founder time. What not to build yet. The first sales hire sets the company’s sales culture more than most founders realize. If someone wants a clean lane and a playbook, this isn’t it. If they want to shape the lane, this is where you do it.
