Full job description

We're building the AI that brings financial intelligence to the physical economy.


Trillions of dollars flow through supply chains every year — lost in invoices nobody fully audits, contracts nobody can enforce at scale, and data nobody has unified. Mello is the AI-native platform that fixes this: automating invoice audit, contract enforcement, and cost control for the logistics teams that power modern commerce.


We're venture-backed, growing fast, and working with some of the most innovative names in European logistics and retail.


Aufgaben


You will own Mello's revenue engine from day one - building pipeline, running deals end-to-end, and turning what works into a repeatable sales motion. This is a full-cycle sales role at an early-stage AI company: no hand-holding, real ownership, direct founder access.


Key Responsibilities:



  • Full-Cycle Sales Ownership: Own deals from first touch to signed contract. You run outbound across LinkedIn, cold calling, and email; qualify prospects; lead discovery and product demos; handle objections; and drive to close.

  • Pipeline Generation: Build your own top of funnel. You'll identify target accounts within our ICP, craft personalized outreach, and run multi-channel sequences that get responses. Volume and quality, not one or the other.

  • Playbook Building: Turn your wins into repeatable processes. Best-performing outreach angles, call scripts, demo flows, and objection-handling get codified into the Mello Sales Playbook — so what works for you scales across the team.

  • CRM & Reporting: Keep the pipeline clean and visible. You'll own CRM hygiene, track the metrics that matter (activity, conversion, pipeline velocity, win rates), and give the founding team a clear view of what's working.


Qualifikation


Mindset



  • You're hungry - you want to close deals and you take losing personally

  • You take full ownership of your pipeline and results

  • You're comfortable with rejection and know how to push through it

  • You aspire to build something, potentially your own company one day


Experience



  • 1-3 years in B2B sales, business development, or a high-agency commercial role

  • Experience running outbound and full-cycle deals (even if early-stage or informal)

  • Comfortable selling to logistics, finance, or operations buyers - or fast learner in new verticals

  • Strong intuition for how businesses buy and what moves a deal forward

  • High integrity, strong work ethic, urgency

  • Fluent in German and English


Benefits



  • Attractive compensation with meaningful early equity upside

  • Full-cycle ownership from day one - no siloed SDR/AE split

  • Close collaboration with the founding team in a small, fast-moving environment

  • Direct access to customers from first call to deployment

  • The opportunity to help build a sales motion from scratch at an AI company with real traction


We move fast - end to end in ~2 weeks.



  1. Application review → every application is reviewed by the team

  2. Intro call → 30-minute conversation with a founder

  3. On-site → meet the team, work on a real problem together, get a feel for how we operate

  4. Offer → clear decision and fast feedback
