About this role
About Basis
Basis builds real agents that do real work in the real economy. Our agents operate for hours at a time, performing end-to-end work for some of the largest accounting firms in the world.
We recently raised $100M at >$1B valuation and are racing to deploy the most advanced applied ML at production scale. Our investors include: Khosla Ventures (Keith Rabois & Vinod Khosla), Accel (Miles Clements), Google Ventures, Nat Friedman & Daniel Gross, Adam D'Angelo, Jeff Dean, Jack Altman, Noam Brown, Kyle Vogt, Amjad Masad, Clem Delangue and many other operators/technical leaders.
"Basis is on the frontier of building production-grade, long-horizon agents. They've pushed the limits of what we thought our models could do on real-world, economically valuable, complex accounting tasks. They've been a great collaborator in helping us shape what the future of agents looks like." — Prashant Mital, Applied AI Lead, OpenAI
What you’ll be doing:
In this role, you will own the full sales cycle—from prospecting and generating initial interest to closing deals—while coordinating closely with customer success, solutions/technical teams, and external partners such as integrators. You’ll manage complex, multi-stakeholder opportunities; develop detailed business plans to hit goals and quotas; and build executive-level relationships across industries to close strategic partnerships.
As we scale, you’ll shape our sales process by codifying playbooks and best practices, and help build the GTM team by interviewing and mentoring future sellers.
