SignalWire is a cloud communications and voice AI company built on FreeSWITCH infrastructure. Our programmable voice, video, messaging, and AI voice agent APIs give developers and enterprises the building blocks to create modern communication experiences.

Position Overview

This is a hunter role, but you won't be starting from a blank page. You'll work with outbound cadences, sequencing, and messaging playbooks already built by sales leadership, so you can focus on what you do best: prospecting, building pipeline, and closing complex enterprise deals. Your feedback and field experience will directly inform how those playbooks evolve over time. You'll join a small team of tenured Account Executives and a Sales Operations Manager and report directly to the Vice President of Sales, with close visibility into company strategy.

Your work has a real, visible impact on revenue predictability and the company's go-to-market execution. And while the primary focus is landing new logos, you'll also grow the accounts you close through cross-sell, upsell, and renewals, building long-term relationships rather than handing accounts off after the sale.
