Founding Enterprise Account Executive
Pylon is the only agentic support platform, purpose-built for B2B companies. For leaders scaling AI-native support teams, Pylon lets humans and agents collaborate on customer work – investigating, resolving, and acting on every signal across every channel that matters.
Unlike platforms built before the AI era, Pylon enriches every interaction with deep account-level context, automates the low impact customer work, and surfaces answers before your team even has to ask. The result: faster responses, happier customers, and a system that continuously improves itself.
We're backed by a16z, BCV, General Catalyst, and Y Combinator. More than 1,500 companies including Linear, Cognition (makers of Devin), Modal Labs, and Incident.io http://Incident.io run their support and customer success workflows on Pylon. We're also featured on the Enterprise Tech 30 List https://www.enterprisetech30.com/.
THE ROLE
- Be Pylon's founding enterprise AE, building and owning our enterprise motion from the ground up.
- Own full-cycle sales for large, complex B2B accounts — from multi-threaded discovery through executive-level negotiation and close.
- Source a meaningful share of your own pipeline through strategic outbound. This is a build-and-sell role: you're not waiting on a BDR team to hit your number.
- Sell to post-sales, support, and success leaders at larger organizations, running proof-of-value trials that close six-figure+ ARR deals.
- Define what "enterprise" means at Pylon — the playbook, positioning, and process other AEs will follow as the motion scales.
- As the segment proves out, help shape how we hire and build our first enterprise sales team. You're not filling a seat here, you're building it.
