Founding Account Executive

About Us:
Ditto allows teams to manage their copy from design to production with a single source of truth. Over 3600+ teams (from Fortune 500 companies to startups!) currently use Ditto.

Copy is currently the most under-leveraged aspect of building product, despite being even higher ROI than design and touched by everyone from legal to engineering.

We're backed by incredible investors like Y Combinator, Greycroft, Soma Capital, and founders/top operators from Doordash, Kabam, IFTTT, and Pinterest. We're a fast-moving team, and this role is an opportunity to join an early-stage startup as one of the first employees and directly impact how teams build product.
📍 Location:
Remote (US-Based)
💰 Compensation:
$150-180K OTE, early team equity
⚡️ As our founding AE, you'll:
  • Manage mid-market and enterprise sales cycles end-to-end — from lead to close
  • Distill buyer feedback, deal friction, and objection patterns into insights that shape both the product roadmap and the GTM playbook (messaging, qualification, etc.)
  • Engage product-qualified leads to drive conversion and expansion
  • Act as a trusted advisor to champions navigating an unfamiliar buying process, and set them up for successful rollout — as we define a new category
  • Develop a deep understanding of Ditto’s product and buyer pain points
  • Generate pipeline through focused, value-driven outbound — to supplement our strong inbound
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with product marketing, design, and engineering to develop strong product fluency and drive sales velocity
  • Own deals from day one — with the opportunity to grow into a broader role as we expand the GTM team and sales function
🤝 We're looking for someone that:
  • Has 4+ years of sales experience in a B2B SaaS environment (added plus if selling to design, engineering, and product teams, or working with design/developer tools)
  • Runs strong discovery and spots patterns quickly — translating conversations into clear GTM and product insights
  • Thrives in early-stage, ambiguous, and fast-changing environments — spotting gaps and building just enough process or insight to help the team move faster
  • Has experience with a value-based approach to selling — framing value relative to real buyer challenges and priorities
  • Wants to become a true product expert — and knows strong product understanding is essential to selling effectively
  • Understands that great sales isn’t “sell at all costs” — it’s about helping champions navigate unfamiliar processes, clarifying real use cases, and building something repeatable
  • Bonus: experience selling to enterprise teams with multiple stakeholders

💥

We're growing fast, and what you build has the chance to materially impact the workflows of product and design teams.
