About Us:

YipitData is the leading market research and analytics firm for the disruptive economy and most recently raised $475M from The Carlyle Group at a valuation of over $1B. Every day, our proprietary technology analyzes billions of alternative data points to uncover actionable insights across sectors like software, AI, cloud, e-commerce, ridesharing, and payments.

Our data and research teams transform raw data into strategic intelligence, delivering accurate, timely, and deeply contextualized analysis that our customers—ranging from the world’s top investment funds to Fortune 500 companies—depend on to drive high-stakes decisions. From sourcing and licensing novel datasets to rigorous analysis and expert narrative framing, our teams ensure clients get not just data, but clarity and confidence.

We operate globally with offices in the US (NYC, Austin, Miami, Mountain View), APAC (Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, Singapore), and India. Our award-winning, people-centric culture—recognized by Inc. as a Best Workplace for three consecutive years—emphasizes transparency, ownership, and continuous mastery.

What It’s Like to Work at YipitData:

YipitData isn’t a place for coasting—it’s a launchpad for ambitious, impact-driven professionals.

From day one, you’ll take the lead on meaningful work, accelerate your growth, and gain exposure that shapes careers.


Why Top Talent Chooses YipitData:

  • Ownership That Matters: You’ll lead high-impact projects with real business outcomes
  • Rapid Growth: We compress years of learning into months
  • Merit Over Titles: Trust and responsibility are earned through execution, not tenure
  • Velocity with Purpose: We move fast, support each other, and aim high—always with purpose and intention

If your ambition is matched by your work ethic—and you're hungry for a place where growth, impact, and ownership are the norm—YipitData might be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.

About The Role:

With over 500+ fundamental investor clients, we are now expanding our footprint into the quantitative investment space. We’re launching new data feeds tailored to systematic strategies and we are seeking a Senior Sales Executive to lead our growth in this vertical. This individual will play a pivotal role in introducing YipitData’s alternative data feed products to quantitative hedge funds and other systematic investment firms.

You will own the full sales cycle — from identifying and qualifying leads to closing deals. This is primarily a new business (hunting) role, ideal for someone who thrives on building new relationships and breaking into complex, data-driven markets.


What You’ll Do:

  • Act as a primary driver of revenue growth by selling YipitData’s feed products into quantitative and systematic investment funds.
  • Build and maintain a strong pipeline of opportunities through proactive outreach and your existing network.
  • Collaborate with internal product teams to tailor solutions that address clients’ specific data needs.
  • Manage the complete sales process — from prospecting to contract execution — ensuring exceptional client experience.
  • Represent YipitData at relevant conferences, industry events, and client meetings to strengthen our presence in the quant community.

You Are Likely to Succeed If You:

  • Have 4+ years of experience in financial data sales, with a proven track record selling to quantitative hedge funds or asset managers.
  • Have a proven track record of exceeding quota and successfully introducing complex or technical data products to new clients.
  • Leverage your network within the quant and systematic community to build pipeline
  • Are resourceful, resilient, and energized by the challenge of opening new doors.
  • Thrive in a collaborative environment and are motivated by team and company success, not just individual achievement.

What We Offer:

Our compensation package includes comprehensive benefits, perks, and a competitive salary:

We care about your personal life, and we mean it. We offer flexible work hours, flexible vacation, a generous 401K match, parental leave, team events, wellness budget, learning reimbursement, and more!

Your growth at YipitData is determined by the impact that you are making, not by tenure, unnecessary facetime, or office politics. Everyone at YipitData is empowered to learn, self-improve, and master their skills in an environment focused on ownership, respect, and trust.

The annual OTE (on-target earnings) for this position is anticipated to be $300K. The final offer may be determined by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the applicant's experience, knowledge, skills, abilities, as well as internal team benchmarks.

The compensation package also includes equity.
