Join us in building it.\nAugust allows law firms to compound their expertise by building an autonomous organization of AI agents that run the firm's knowledge work. We partner closely with our firms and grow alongside them through sharing revenue on our agents and equity in the firms we transform.\nWe believe that in five years, more than 95% of legal work will be concentrated among a select few elite law firms. The firms that get there will be the ones that rebuild how they deliver it. We're partnering with those firms and building the engine they run on to become the biggest legal service provider in the world.\nWe invest in partnerships, not just licenses. We sell finished legal work alongside our firms and take a share of what it earns. This enables them to scale their services and lets us grow along with it. That means we’re chasing the legal services market ($1T), which dwarfs the global legal tech market ($40b).\nThe problem is hard. An engine of agents sits underneath every matter we touch, connected to every step of a lawyer's workflow, in an industry where there is no margin for error. We’re challenged with building the perfectly accurate, infallibly secure, and yet all-powerful engine for legal work.\nWe're already live with several excellent firms and the early results are better than we expected. Lean team, in person, New York, backed by leading investors, growing fast.\nEvery role at August is a chance to remake an industry while the window is open.\nThe Opportunity\nWe’re looking for an Account Executive who is excited to own our sales motion from the ground up. You’ll work directly with the founders, engage some of the most forward-looking law firms, and help shape how AI is adopted across the legal industry.\nYou’ll need to be comfortable leading complex sales cycles, deeply understanding customer workflows, and translating technical capabilities into business value. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-moving environment, loves building new markets, and is energized by high ownership.\nWhat You'll Do\nOwn the full sales motion. Run deals from cold to close across our entire customer base - law firms and in-house legal teams alike.\n\nBuild the playbook. Discovery scripts, demo flow, objection library, pricing posture, deal stages - none of this exists yet. You build it, document it, and refine it as you sell.\n\nSell outcomes, not tools. Structure deals as fixed-fee engagements, not seat-based subscriptions. Help buyers reframe how they procure legal work.\n\nPartner with product and engineering. Every lost deal becomes a product input. Every won deal becomes a workflow we encode. You are the connective tissue.\n\nRepresent August in the field. Practice-specific conferences are now our primary pipeline source. Show up, speak, write, and become the August face the market recognizes.\n\nUse AI to outperform. Operate with the full stack - Clay, Apollo, Bird Dog, intent tools, custom AI agents. We do not hire AEs who sell the old way at a company that sells the new way.\n\nAbout You\n3-6 years of experience in a closing sales role (SaaS, Legal Tech, or B2B Enterprise preferred).\n\nTrack record of consistently exceeding quota and owning complex, multi-threaded sales.\n\nStrong consultative sales skills - you can dig into a prospect’s problems, not just pitch features.\n\nComfort navigating technical conversations and translating value for non-technical buyers.\n\nAbility to thrive in ambiguity and adapt quickly as we scale.\n\nBonus: Experience selling into legal, professional services, or highly regulated industries.\n\nBonus: JD or prior legal industry experience.\n\nBenefits\nMedical insurance coverage\n\nFlexible PTO\n\nCentralized office equipment ordering for all employees\n\nEquinox or Chelsea Piers gym membership\n\nIn-office perks: lunch, dinner, snacks, drinks, and more\n\nBudget for intra-office travel\n\nTeam-building events\n\nRelocation support to NYC (as needed)\n\nWhy Join August\nFounding Impact: Shape not just your role but the company.\n\nUncapped Upside: Competitive base + commission, early equity ownership.\n\nTop-tier Team: Work alongside people who move fast, think clearly, and care deeply.\n\nCategory-Defining Work: Help build the first true AI agents for the legal profession.\n\nFast Growth: Scale your career as we scale the company.\n\nIn-person in NYC: Collaborative, talent dense and high energy environment\n\nGlobal Reach: Our clients span 4 continents and use August in multiple languages and jurisdictions\n\nFrontier of Applied AI: August has access to proprietary data inaccessible to foundation model providers. We build agents to automate all challenging knowledge work.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4696,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Gym membership","Health insurance","Insurance coverage"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":true,"industries":["AI Agents","Legal AI"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-06T08:29:02Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":3,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.121,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":405,"expected_fill_days":24,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","ghost","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-29T05:49:05Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":300000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/august-account-executive","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/august-account-executive.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-29T20:00:16Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":29766,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-30T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":31611},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=31611"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Faugust-account-executive"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Faugust-account-executive"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Faugust-account-executive"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/august-account-executive\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Faugust-account-executive"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":450761}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"august.ai","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":450761},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
