Senior Account Executive (West Coast)

Are you a shown outside/field enterprise seller with a history of exceeding sales quota and experience selling to technical DevOps or Infrastructure buyers (SVP Eng / CTO / Engineering Managers)? Are you looking for the next step in your career? If so, we've got a perfect opportunity for you:

Armory is looking to hire a Senior outside/field sales account executive. You’ll be working closely with the founders to help build out our sales process, structure and team.

Are you someone with proven experience selling at the executive level of Global 2,000 enterprises. Experience working at companies that focus on devops or other infrastructure tooling is a huge plus. Someone that has previously sold to engineering managers and engineering leaders (SVP Eng, CTO) and is comfortable running a solutions-based, technical selling process. We want sophisticated sellers who are great at matching customer needs with the value Armory can provide. We are not looking for coin-operated, high pressure sellers. Huge bonus if you have a computer science, engineering or mathematics degree and/or have previously been an application developer or sales engineer.

We are commercializing an open-source project and there is plenty of inbound demand coming from the OSS community, we need sellers who can take interested leads on a customer journey of qualification, discovery, evaluation, and technical fit, while successfully solving for the needs of the champion(typically an engineering manager) and the buyer(typically an engineering leader). Part of your role will be putting sales best-practices into place, including discipline around our CRM and high touch points, to better service that demand. If this describes you, we’d love to talk.
