Founding Account Executive

tl;dr: Why choose Flint? ⚡ We're winning quickly: Backed by Accel, by the same partner who led the first round for Scale, Vercel, and Sentry, plus Sheryl Sandberg's fund SBVP and Neo. We launched in February 2026 ( announced here ), and are already powering pages that generate hundreds of thousands of dollars in pipeline + featured on CNBC . ⚡ Recognized names that turn heads: We've earned the trust of customers like Cognition, Glean, Langchain, Tandem, 11x, + more we don't publicly reference. ( Our gong has been put to great use! )   About Flint Flint is the agentic platform that ships pages from your brand and ad campaigns. AI doesn't replace marketers. It removes the work that should never have been theirs: building a one-off landing page for every keyword, every campaign change, every A/B test, then waiting on design and engineering to do it. Today we deliver on-brand pages on your own domain in minutes, with no rebuilds and no engineers. We're backed by Accel, Sheryl Sandberg (former Meta COO)'s venture fund SBVP, and Neo.   The vision Sandberg instantly understood Flint's vision. "I was sharing how it took (me) five teams three months to build one A/B test just to increase conversion by 10% on our Google ad," Lim said. "And then she stopped me, [and] said, 'Michelle, it was 140 people at Meta who had to do this'." — TechCrunch Imagine a website that builds new pages, tests creative, and optimizes performance in response to real-world signals: competitive shifts, user behavior, trending search queries, the way an autonomous vehicle responds to road conditions and traffic. The marketer still owns the work that compounds and the work that requires taste: strategy, audience, creative direction, brand judgment. Flint takes the manual production off their plate so they get those hours back.   The team "One of the most talent-dense AI startups... each member of the early Flint team has a track record, and as a team, they perform like athletes. Amazing to watch." - Dan Levine, Accel Flint is led by co-founders Michelle Lim , Engineer #1 turned Head of Growth and Product at Warp, and Max Levenson , engineering leadership at autonomous vehicle startup Nuro, then Engineer #2 at Vooma (YCS23). Every single member of the Flint team has been a founding engineer / founder. Early stage best practices are in our team's DNA. Because of that, our team knows how to catalyze hockey stick growth, but just as critically, how to navigate it sustainably to create $XB valued companies. After all, we've done it before. We are alums of Netflix, Scale, and Shepherd (YC W21), and work together in-person out of historic Jackson Square.   The product Companies have used Flint to hit goals like… Ranking #1 on AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overview Lifting ad conversion rates Generating hundreds of thousands of dollars in pipeline revenue The role Flint is looking for a highly driven Founding Account Executive to scale our founder-led sales motion (and keep our gong ringing).

You'll also be the bridge between customers and the product team, feeding what you hear in the field back to the founders. The best version of this role operates like an early-stage founder. Role scope: Own the full cycle end to end: prospecting, discovery, demo, pilot, negotiation, close Build pipeline by running outbound, working conferences and events, taking inbounds and qualifying fast, and running follow-ups Grow the accounts you close. Spot upsell and expansion once a customer is live, and turn first deals into bigger ones Co-write the first version of the playbook with the CEO: pitch, discovery framework, pricing. Document what works so the next five hires can run it Become a product expert. Know Flint well enough to sell it to marketers and technical buyers and spot which prospect is worth your time Be the feedback loop. Spot patterns across deals and feed market learnings straight back to the founders   Basic qualifications: You have 2+ years of SDR experience and 4+ years in sales total You've run full-cycle B2B SaaS deals, end to end, against a quota you owned You've shipped at an early-stage startup before You want to write playbooks, not inherit them You practice ruthless disqualification. You'd rather lose a bad deal early than oversell into a churn You have strong written communication and storytelling ability, able to distill complex concepts into crisp, compelling narratives. You're in SF or moving here. We work from the office Proven ability to manage prospect / customer expectations, objection handle, and listen for the “question behind the question”.
