  • Experience in selling deep tech SaaS solutions is a plus
  • Demonstrated successful selling into Fortune 500 enterprises, with specific named logos and numbers you can reference 
  • Experience selling in an emerging or pre-mainstream category where you had to create buyer understanding, not just respond to existing demand
