Description
About Mission Inbox Mission Inbox is a B2B email infrastructure platform processing 80M+ emails per month for 130+ customers globally; including enterprise accounts paying us $240K+ per year. We're cash-flow positive, profitable, and growing 233% YoY with 139% NRR; early-stage growth without survival anxiety. We operate fully remote, globally distributed, at the execution standards of a company 10x our size. Our team ships three product lines we call "Cubes": Sales & Marketing email infrastructure, and Transactional email. Our AI Shield; trained on 90M+ emails; is the defensible moat in a category where deliverability gets harder every quarter. The Role You'll be Mission Inbox's first dedicated Enterprise Account Executive. We've proven the model; customers already pay us $60K, $120K, and $240K+ ACVs. Your job is to find more of them. You'll build and own a focused list of 80–100 named target accounts; Fortune 1000 marketing leaders, high-growth scale-ups with serious outbound or transactional volume, and platform companies whose email is mission-critical. You'll work both our Sales & Marketing and Transactional cubes, multi-threading across CMOs, RevOps, CTOs, VPs of Engineering, and Procurement. You report directly to the CRO. You'll partner with Marketing on 1:1 and 1:few ABM plays, and with our SMB Sales team for warm pass-ups from inbound. This isn't a lone-wolf seat — it's the lead role on a coordinated hunt. What You'll Do Own a named account list of 80–100 target companies across Sales & Marketing and Transactional cubes. Build it, hunt it, defend it. Land $60K+ ACV deals as your baseline, with $200K+ whale hunts as your stretch. Multi-thread accounts — 5+ stakeholders per opportunity: Marketing Ops, RevOps, CTOs, VPs of Engineering, Procurement, Security. Become the email infrastructure expert in the room — speak credibly about deliverability, sender reputation, IP warming, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, and the competitive landscape. Run procurement — security reviews, MSAs, DPAs, vendor onboarding. You'll inherit playbooks from our existing $240K deals. Partner with Marketing on ABM plays for your top 20 accounts. Partner with SMB Sales to catch upmarket signals from inbound. Shape the enterprise roadmap — you'll be closer to enterprise buyer requirements than anyone, and your input goes directly to product. Requirements Who You Are 4–7 years of B2B SaaS closing experience as a quota-carrying AE — not SDR background dressed up. Proven track record closing $80K–$250K ACV deals. This is non-negotiable. Show us deal stories, not LinkedIn taglines. B2B infrastructure, devtools, martech, or RevOps tech background — Twilio/SendGrid/Postmark, Outreach/Apollo/Salesloft, HubSpot/Marketo, or similar adjacent categories. Technically fluent — you can hold a 30-minute conversation with a CTO about APIs, authentication, IP reputation, and infrastructure without needing a Solutions Engineer on the line. Multi-thread by instinct — you've never won a real deal selling to only one champion. English fluency, written and verbal. Spanish or Portuguese is a strong plus. Resilient and patient on enterprise cycles — you've worked deals over multiple quarters without losing edge. Builder mindset — you'll co-create the enterprise playbook. No polished one exists yet. Benefits Compensation Base Salary: $32,000 USD, paid monthly. Variable Commission: $48,000 USD at 100% attainment. This is uncapped and paid out quarterly ($12k per quarter). On-Target Earnings (OTE): Your total compensation at 100% quota attainment is $80,000 USD. Accelerators: Hit above 100% of your quarterly quota and commissions are paid out at 1.25x the standard rate. Annual Catch-up Clause: If you miss quota in one quarter but meet your $600K–$800K annual goal, we will pay you the difference owed at year-end. Realistic upside: Closing two whale deals ($200K+ ACV each) plus a steady $60K c
