We are seeking a high-impact Account Executive - Physics Intelligence to drive adoption of Flexcompute’s next-generation simulation stack-Aero Intelligence, including GeometryAI, Flow360, and Physics Repo. This AE will be responsible for selling a category-defining platform that learns as it simulates, automates geometry workflows, accelerates simulation cycles, and eliminates traditional engineering bottlenecks.
What Makes This Role Unique
You are selling the industry’s first AI-native physics platform that combines real-time design iteration, geometry automation, multi-physics simulation, neural memory, and continuous learning. This role places you at the center of transforming how physical products-from EVs to aircraft-are designed over the next decade.
Requirements
- Drive new business for Aero Intelligence across industries such as aerospace, automotive, energy, robotics, and manufacturing.
- Communicate how Aero Intelligence eliminates traditional bottlenecks across geometry prep, meshing, simulation setup, and analysis.
- Deliver high-impact demos of GeometryAI automation, Flow360 GPU-native solvers, and Physics Repo continuous learning.
- Engage senior engineering leadership (Chief Engineers, Heads of Aero/Thermal/Structures/Acoustics/Design).
- Lead discovery conversations around design cycles, simulation challenges, and cross-disciplinary engineering workflows.
- Translate complex physics and engineering workflows into compelling ROI narratives.
- Partner with Solutions Engineering to define and execute evaluations.
- Drive multi-stakeholder enterprise deals through forecasting, negotiation, and account expansion.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- You do not need to be an engineer, but you must be intellectually curious and comfortable discussing CFD, geometry workflows, aerodynamics, and multi-physics concepts.
- 5-12 years of enterprise software or technical SaaS sales experience.
