Work All Remote

Inside Sales Account Executive | EdTech | Remote US (TX Preferred)

About the company

Our client is a fast-growing, venture-backed AI-powered grading and feedback platform for K-12 educators, used by teachers in schools across the US to save hours of grading time while delivering higher-quality, standards-aligned writing feedback to every student. Teachers adopt the product bottom-up, and the company has sold into schools across 30+ states.

The opportunity

The inbound engine is compounding, and most of your pipeline comes to you: quote requests arrive every day, teachers apply to become advocates, and schools where teachers are already using the product are waiting for someone to call. We’re looking for a high-velocity closer to join the founding sales team and own the inside motion end to end: discovery, demos, proposals and closes over Zoom, plus self-sourcing a slice of your own number. You’ll work directly with the CEO.

Location: Remote (US, TX preferred). Type: Full-time | Inside Sales | Early-stage equity. Experience: 2–6+ years in SaaS sales, ideally K-12 EdTech or another high-velocity inside sales motion.

What you’ll do – Own Sales (80%)

• Work the inbound engine end-to-end: quote requests, advocate teachers, and warm usage signals, with tight speed to lead
• Run discovery and demos with teachers, principals and curriculum directors over Zoom
• Convert bottom-up adoption: turn schools with active teacher clusters into school and district deals
• Navigate school and district procurement: quotes, purchase orders, IT and privacy reviews
• Self-source part of your pipeline through outbound and referrals
• Manage pipeline, CRM, and forecasting
• Create sales assets for the inside motion: collateral, one-pagers, email sequences

What you’ll do – Grow Accounts (20%)

• Own renewals: grow ACV, adjust pricing, grow to multi-year deals, cross-sell adjacent product lines
• Own internal expansion: expand school deals into district-wide contracts by identifying champions across buildings
• Own external expansion: generate referrals from happy customers, and get warm introductions from champions to open new admin relationships
• Build and maintain relationships, and deliver successful admin onboarding to drive loyalty, usage and retention
• Collaborate with the customer success team to ensure customers get adequate training and sustain healthy usage
• Be the voice of the customer: synthesize admin and teacher feedback to inform the product roadmap

Why you’ll love it

• Impact: help students across the country become better writers
• Growth: the company grew 5x last year and just crossed seven figures in ARR, with most of that growth organic
• Velocity: you will close every week, not every quarter
• Ownership: shape core GTM processes as a founding team member with equity
• Learning: work directly with the founders daily
