Enterprise Account Executive – Remote (United States)

About Kognitos

Kognitos is pioneering a new era of enterprise automation — where business users automate in plain English, not code. We are building a generational company in AI-powered automation and are expanding our U.S. enterprise sales team.

The Role

This role is designed for someone who has successfully sold into complex, operationally intensive industries, including:

  • Manufacturing

  • Energy

  • Logistics & Supply Chain

  • Healthcare

  • Financial Services

You understand how these industries operate, where automation creates measurable ROI, and how to navigate complex enterprise buying processes.

This is a true hunter role for someone with a founder’s mindset — building pipeline from scratch, closing complex enterprise deals, and helping refine go-to-market strategy in a fast-moving startup environment.

What You’ll DoTerritory & Market Development
  • Own and execute a strategic plan to identify, engage, and close enterprise accounts across the U.S.

  • Prioritize accounts within manufacturing, energy, logistics, healthcare, and financial services

  • Build and manage a strong pipeline through outbound prospecting, industry networking, executive outreach, and partnerships

Enterprise Engagement
  • Lead consultative discovery conversations with CIOs, COOs, Heads of Operations, Automation, and Digital Transformation

  • Leverage your understanding of industry-specific workflows, compliance requirements, and operational challenges

  • Develop multi-threaded relationships across large enterprises and expand influence across business units

Sales Execution
  • Manage complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles including technical validation, proof of value, procurement, and executive approvals

  • Deliver tailored demonstrations and business cases aligned to operational and financial impact

  • Partner closely with Solutions, Product, and Customer Success for seamless execution and long-term growth

Revenue Ownership
  • Own and exceed quota

  • Maintain disciplined pipeline management and accurate forecasting

  • Ensure strong CRM hygiene and visibility into deal progression

Required Qualifications
  • 5+ years of enterprise B2B sales experience (SaaS, automation, AI, or enterprise platforms)

  • Demonstrated success selling into manufacturing, energy, logistics, healthcare, or financial services

  • Proven ability to navigate complex buying committees and regulated environments

  • Track record of building pipeline independently and closing net-new enterprise logos

  • Strong executive presence and consultative selling skills

  • Experience managing long, strategic sales cycles

Preferred Qualifications
  • Background in automation, RPA, AI, or digital transformation technologies

  • Experience selling into highly regulated or operationally intensive industries

  • Prior startup experience in a high-growth environment

What We Offer
  • Competitive base salary + uncapped commission

  • Meaningful equity in a high-growth, venture-backed company

  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision benefits

  • Remote-first culture with regular team offsites

  • The opportunity to help define a category in enterprise automation

If you’ve built and closed enterprise relationships within manufacturing, energy, logistics, healthcare, or financial services — and want to lead growth in a company redefining automation — we’d love to
