Founding Account Executive (US)

We’re hiring a Founding Account Executive to win and expand Enterprise accounts across the US. Flinn already has strong product-market fit and paying customers in Europe - the US is a green field. As our first US-based Account Executive, you'll adapt a proven European playbook to the US regulatory and buying landscape, build a pipeline from scratch, and close Flinn's first US customers, working closely with the founding team.

• We are building a truly exceptional culture: While many companies claim to have a great culture, we invite you to discover what truly sets ours apart. Visit our career page, speak with our team, listen to our founders’ podcast, or experience our culture first-hand during the interview process.

• Make a Meaningful Impact: Your work at Flinn contributes directly to solutions that improve people’s health and lives by making high-quality health products accessible for everyone.

• Experienced, well-funded, highly professional: As well-funded startup veterans, we know how to sustain long-term business health and success, ensuring an environment for continuous personal growth.

• 100% of your medical, dental & vision premiums paid by Flinn. Employer-matched 401(k), dependent coverage at 60%, life & disability, FSA/HSA, and travel coverage. Day one. No waiting period.

• Competitive OTE structured to your experience level + equity. We hire for mindset — the offer reflects where you are.

• Own the US outbound motion from day one — no inherited playbook, no bureaucratic guardrails while building upon a proven AI-powered outbound stack.

• Join a fast-growing, well-funded Series A startup, backed by experienced founders and investors.

• Be part of a mission-driven health-tech company whose work directly improves people's lives.

• Work in a high-trust, low-ego environment with real autonomy and clear ownership.

• Receive one of the most employee-friendly equity packages, including fair vesting terms and profit-sharing opportunities.

• Grow in a professional, high-standard environment that supports long-term personal and career development.

• Work in a net-zero company where all unavoidable CO₂ emissions are compensated with carefully selected, high-quality removal certificates.

• Build and work a target account list of US-based MedTech and Pharma manufacturers.

• Own the full sales cycle end-to-end: outbound prospecting, discovery, demo, negotiation, and close.

• Build relationships with Regulatory, Quality, Clinical, and Compliance leaders, from Director up to VP/C-level.

• Adapt Flinn's European sales playbook and messaging to US buyers and the US regulatory context.

• Represent Flinn at US industry conferences and events.

• Maintain disciplined CRM hygiene and forecasting.

• Feed market and competitive intelligence back to Product and Marketing to help shape US go-to-market strategy.

Must-Have

• 2-6 years of full-cycle B2B SaaS sales experience, with a track record of hitting or exceeding quota.

• Comfortable self-sourcing pipeline in an early-stage, low/no-inbound environment (with support from 2 founding BDRs).

• Experience selling to VP/C-level buyers and managing multi-stakeholder deals (Regulatory, Quality, IT, Procurement).

• Based in the New York City area, with ability to travel to prospects, customers, and company events.

Nice-to-Have

• Experience selling into regulated, compliance-heavy, or highly technical industries: MedTech, pharma, life sciences, healthcare, or adjacent regulated software, big plus.

• An existing network of contacts in Regulatory Affairs, Quality, or Compliance roles at MedTech or Pharma companies.

• Experience as an early or founding sales hire, building a new territory or market from scratch.

• Experience selling alongside a Sales Engineer or running technical, multi-stakeholder evaluations.

• Some comfort going deeper into product/technical detail during a sales cycle — this is closer to consultative selling than a pure relationship-and-logo motion.

• Entrepreneurial - genuinely energized by an open market with no playbook yet, not just tolerant of ambiguity.

• A self-motivated hunter who creates pipeline rather than waiting for it.

• A clear, direct communicator, comfortable working in daily contact with founders.

• Detail-oriented, organized, and disciplined about follow-through.

• Driven by building and impact, not primarily by commission size or by wanting to move into sales management.

This role is NOT for you if:

• You want a comfortable rhythm and a 9-to-5.

• You need a fully built playbook before you can move.

• You measure success by effort, not outcomes.

• You're looking for a stepping stone into sales leadership rather than a hands-on builder role.
