From architecting and amplifying the reach of a private, global, multi-cloud IP network, to bringing hyperlocal edgetechnology right to your fingertips through intuitive APIs, we're shaping a new era of seamless interconnection between people, devices, and applications.\nWe're driven by a desire to transform and modernize what's antiquated, automate the manual, and solve real-world problems through innovative connectivity solutions. As a testament to our success, we're proud to stand as a financially stable and profitable company. Our robust profitability allows us not only to invest in pioneering technologies but also to foster an environment of continuous learning and growth for our team.\nOur collective vision is a world where borderless connectivity fuels limitless innovation. By joining us, you can be part of laying the foundations for this interconnected future. We're currently seeking passionate individuals who are excited about the opportunity to contribute to an industry-shaping company while growing their own skills and careers.\nThe Role\nWe're building local Enterprise Sales Pods across global markets - one AE and one Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE), working together to build a Telnyx enterprise business in Mexico City. This is not a remote overlay on an existing territory. You will own a named-account list of 30-40 enterprise accounts in Mexico, and your job is to turn those accounts into production Telnyx customers.\nYou'll work side-by-side with a dedicated FDE - not a demo resource, but a technical partner who designs architectures, builds POCs, and gets the first workload live. You win together. No throw-over-the-wall.\nThis is a founding role. You'll help define how Telnyx sells into enterprise accounts in Mexico, set the playbook, and build the references that the next wave of hires will follow.\nThe Pod Model\nEnterprise AE - owns the named-account list, builds executive relationships, gets in the room, owns commercial qualification and close, expands the account. \nForward Deployed Engineer - owns technical discovery, designs the architecture, builds the POC when gated, gets the first workload live, removes blockers and finds the next workload.\nWe sell the workload, not the SKU. Customers buy a production outcome - an AI contact center, a SOC/NOC agent, global communications, connected mobility, enterprise inference, or financial services infrastructure - that runs on Telnyx primitives (voice, messaging, numbers, wireless, Voice AI, inference, agents, connectivity). You lead with the outcome conversation, not a product menu.\nWhat You'll Do\nOwn a territory of 30-40 named enterprise accounts in Mexico, narrowing to ~10 Tier 1 accounts worth $1M+ in annual potential\nBuild executive relationships - get in the room with CIOs, CTOs, VP Engineering, and line-of-business owners across Mexico City's enterprise landscape and key hubs like Monterrey and Guadalajara\nRun the full sales cycle: prospect, qualify, design the commercial architecture with your FDE, negotiate, and close\nSell production outcomes, not individual products - lead with \"let's deploy an AI agent that operates your SOC or NOC workflow,\" not \"which Telnyx products do you want?\"\nNavigate Mexico's enterprise procurement landscape - large banks, telecom operators, manufacturing, retail conglomerates, and nearshoring technology buyers\nAgree the commercial destination before any custom work begins - no free discovery or free development\nMaintain disciplined POC management: every POC has a named executive sponsor, written success criteria, production pricing discussed, a decision date, and a signed commercial document. POCs end in production or they end\nExpand the account - one workload becomes three, one $500K customer becomes a $2M customer\nBuild local references and case studies in the Mexico market\nProvide accurate pipeline reporting and forecasting - no surprises\nWhat We're Looking For\n5+ years of enterprise sales experience selling into the Mexican market - CPaaS, UCaaS, CCaaS, telecom, AI/ML, or similarly technical infrastructure\nProven track record of consistently exceeding quota ($1M+ deals)\nExperience selling to both executive and technical buyers - you can hold your own in the boardroom and in the architecture review\nDeep understanding of the Mexican enterprise landscape - local procurement cycles, business customs, and the growing nearshoring and digital transformation ecosystem\nHunter mentality - you build your own pipeline and thrive on outbound, in-person selling\nStrong consultative selling skills: can build a clear, compelling ROI story for both technical and business buyers\nFamiliarity with sales methodologies (MEDDPICC, Challenger, SPIN, etc.)\nComfortable with modern sales tools (Salesforce, Outreach, Gong, etc.)\nExcellent written and verbal communication in Spanish and English. You listen before you pitch.\nWillingness to be in the field - visiting customers in person is a core part of this role\nBased in Mexico City or willing to relocate\nBonus Points For\nFortune 500 or large enterprise new business sales experience in Mexico/LATAM\nComplex sales cycles including RFPs, POCs, and competitive bake-offs\nC-Level selling experience - you can navigate procurement, security, and legal complexity in the Mexican regulatory environment (LFPDPPP, local data residency)\nUnderstanding of SIP trunking, phone number provisioning, carrier networks, or AI/ML platforms\nEstablished relationships in the Mexican enterprise ecosystem - financial services, telecom, manufacturing, or retail\nExperience selling into Mexico's nearshoring boom and digital transformation initiatives\nPortuguese language skills for broader LATAM coverage","description_format":"text","description_chars":5813,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"Portuguese","level":"All levels","optional":false},{"language":"Spanish","level":"Upper-Intermediate (B2)","optional":false},{"language":"English","level":"Upper-Intermediate (B2)","optional":false}]},"benefits":["Continuous learning"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Mexico","iso":"MX","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":true,"industries":["Unified Communications","Conversational AI","Telecom Infrastructure","AI Compute & Inference"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-24T19:55:53Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-10-30T20:55:55Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":null,"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/telnyx-founding-account-executive-mexico","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/telnyx-founding-account-executive-mexico.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-01T18:53:01Z","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":28918,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-02T00:00:00Z"}},"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":13786},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=13786"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Ftelnyx-founding-account-executive-mexico"},{"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%2Ftelnyx-founding-account-executive-mexico"},{"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%2Ftelnyx-founding-account-executive-mexico"},{"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/telnyx-founding-account-executive-mexico\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Ftelnyx-founding-account-executive-mexico"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":1199095}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"telnyx.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":1199095},"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.
