Actively AI is defining a new category: Intelligence-Led Revenue.
Revenue organizations have always been bottlenecked on human capacity. Reps triage which accounts get attention. Context disappears at every handoff. On any given day, the vast majority of accounts have exactly zero people thinking about them.
Actively addresses this at the structural level. Our platform deploys Per-Account AgentsTM across our customers’ TAM, working 24/7 to research, identify opportunities, and advance next steps without being asked. Leading enterprises including Ramp, Ironclad, and Samsara are already making this shift.
Our co-founders are former Stanford AI researchers, and the team comes from Harvard, CMU, Berkeley, Brex, Scale AI, and Google. We've raised $68M from TCV, First Harmonic, Bain Capital Ventures, First Round Capital, and more.
Actively AI is scaling quickly, and we’re hiring a Strategic Account Executive to lead our largest, most complex enterprise opportunities.

This is a high-impact, full-cycle role focused on $500K+ enterprise deals. You will operate at executive altitude with CROs and their leadership teams, help shape our strategic sales playbook, and directly influence how AI is evaluated and adopted across enterprise revenue organizations.
This role is about orchestrating outcomes — not just closing deals.

- Provide structured field feedback to evolve messaging, sales motions, and GTM strategy
- Strategic enterprise seller with 8+ years of SaaS sales experience, including direct ownership of $500K+ enterprise deals. You have experience selling into GTM or revenue teams (Sales, Marketing, RevOps)
