You personally take our first deals from initial conversation to signature across employers, providers, and strategic partners, converting warm introductions and outbound hustle alike into signed six- and seven-figure contracts. Because we are early, every deal is also evidence: you work with the founders to figure out which channels convert, at what price, and on what cycle, so the company knows where to double down. As the motion proves out, you document the playbook and hire the team that scales it.\nWho you are\nYou were an early or senior sales leader at a digital health or behavioral health company that grew from zero to real revenue. You sold into employers, you know the benefits consultants and brokers, and you have personally closed six- and seven-figure contracts for a product that was new to its buyers. You are comfortable being the entire sales function for a while: sourcing your own pipeline, running your own process, and closing without support. You want to run that arc again from the beginning, with more ownership, in a category that matters.\nOutcomes\nClose the first contracts: Personally sign our first customers within 12 months, a mix of paid pilots and six- and seven-figure contracts, including at least one flagship account that expands.\n\nConvert VIP introductions into contracts: Take CEO-level introductions from founders and advisors and personally run them to signature without hand-holding.\n\nDetermine where we win: Within 12 months, establish from real deal evidence which channels convert, at what price, and on what sales cycle.\n\nBuild the repeatable motion: Maintain an honest pipeline with real forecasts, and document the playbook (targeting, pitch, pricing, proposal, close) so the reps you later hire can run it.\n\nCompetencies\nProven Digital Health Hunter: 10+ years personally sourcing and closing six- and seven-figure deals, selling digital health or benefits products into employers. You generate your own pipeline; you are not a sales ops person or an account manager.\n\nDeal-Risk Savvy: You know where these deals die (security review, legal, clinical scrutiny, budget cycles) and you address those risks early.\n\nComfortable at Altitude: Credible and composed with Fortune 500 CEOs, celebrity founders, and billionaire investors, and you convert those rooms into next steps and contracts.\n\nStrategic and Operational on the Same Day: You can pressure-test pricing and channel strategy in the morning and send thirty researched outreach emails in the afternoon.\n\nAutonomous and Disciplined: You operate at high velocity in ambiguity with zero hand-holding, and your pipeline stages, forecasts, and follow-ups are always real.\n\nTeam Builder: You have hired and managed sellers and can build the team once the motion is proven. A path to revenue leadership exists if you earn it, but you are hired to sell.\n\nGenuine Conviction: You care about mental health and it shows. Buyers can sense whether it is real.\n\nGreat to have\nSold into, against, or through EAPs; relationships with benefits consultants and brokers.\n\nBreadth beyond employers: providers, health systems, payers, or distribution partnerships.\n\nSold clinical or evidence-based products where outcomes data is part of the sale.\n\nFirst sales hire at an early-stage startup.\n\nPersonal connection to therapy, coaching, or mental health.\n\nLogistics\nSan Francisco, hybrid (Tue-Thu in office). Not remote. Full-time.\n\nReports to the CEO.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3496,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["AI Agents","Digital Mental Health"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-25T23:04:09Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-10-20T21:54:22Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":null,"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/the-path-founding-sales-lead-enterprise","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/the-path-founding-sales-lead-enterprise.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-21T13:29:00Z","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":19102,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-22T00:00:00Z"}},"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":2096350},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2096350"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fthe-path-founding-sales-lead-enterprise"},{"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%2Fthe-path-founding-sales-lead-enterprise"},{"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%2Fthe-path-founding-sales-lead-enterprise"},{"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/the-path-founding-sales-lead-enterprise\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fthe-path-founding-sales-lead-enterprise"}]}
