Growth Account Executive
Airbyte is the open‑source standard for data movement. We've enabled data teams to move data from applications, APIs, unstructured sources and databases to data warehouses, lakes, and AI applications. With tens of thousands of connectors built and hundreds of thousands of companies adopting Airbyte, we've proven the economics of data integration at scale. And now Airbyte is building the frontier agentic data infrastructure, purpose-built for AI agents that need fast, accurate access to data across hundreds of sources. Our mission: make data available and actionable, everywhere.
We've raised $181M from the world's top investors (Benchmark, Accel, Altimeter, Coatue, Y Combinator, etc.) and we believe in product-led growth, where we build something awesome that all our users love. We’ve raised enough capital to explore boldly, but we still choose to move quickly, stay scrappy, and experiment constantly as we find the right paths in an AI-native landscape.
The Role:
Airbyte is seeking a Growth Account Executive to join our sales team. This individual will be charged with closing a list of accounts (inbound and outbound) across our different product lines.
This role will be primarily selling into the CTO / CIO organization with frequent interaction with Data Engineers, Data Analysts, Heads of Engineering, Developers, Data Scientists, etc. Foundational knowledge of cloud infrastructure, the modern data stack, API-based data connections, and database replication – or a demonstrated ability to pick up new industry knowledge quickly — is a necessity.
New business and small footprint deals will grow your client base, and overachievement will likely depend on landing & expanding from single departments to company-wide deployments. This is an opportunity to be an early part of a growing startup sales function with a strong product-led growth motion.
What You’ll Do:
Manage the entire deal cycle on qualified leads through evaluation, POC, proposal, negotiation, and closed-won, tracking towards a quarterly bookings target (quota).
Own relationship building and deal formulation across a book of business.
Share in prospecting/outbound efforts.
Act as a conduit for competitive intel, feature requests, and customer requirements to our product, marketing, executive, and engineering teams.
Keep a clean, up-to-date pipeline that is 4x quarterly quota.
What You’ll Need:
3+ years of B2B sales experience within SaaS/cloud/data.
Demonstrated history of quota attainment and overachievement.
Excellent organizational, presentation, and communication skills.
