APPLY NOW (opens in a new tab)Enterprise Account Executive, EastNew York, New YorkTelnyx is an industry leader that's not just imagining the future of global connectivitywe're building it. From architecting and amplifying the reach of a private, global, multi-cloud IP network, to bringing hyperlocal edge technology right to your fingertips through intuitive APIs, we're shaping a new era of seamless interconnection between people, devices, and applications. We'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. Our 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.
The Role:
Most communications platforms resell someone else's network. We built oursa private global IP network, our own carrier interconnects, and the voice, messaging, wireless, and inference stack that runs on top of it. When latency and uptime are the product, owning the infrastructure is the difference between a demo and a deployment. We're hiring Enterprise Account Executives to sell that stack across US East. You'll own a named list of 3040 accounts and work in a pod with a dedicated Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) to turn them into production Telnyx customers. This is not a remote overlay on an existing territory. One AE, one FDE, full cycleexecutive relationship through production deployment. You win together. Nothing gets thrown over the wall. You sell the workload, not the SKU. Enterprises buy a production outcomean AI contact center, a SOC/NOC agent, global communications, connected mobility, enterprise inferencethat runs on Telnyx primitives. You lead with the outcome, not the product menu. The Pod Model Enterprise AEowns the named-account list, builds the executive relationships, gets in the room, runs commercial qualification and close, expands the account. Forward Deployed Engineerowns technical discovery, designs the architecture, builds the proof of concept when one is required, gets the first workload live, clears blockers and finds the next workload.
What You'll Do:
- Own 3040 named enterprise accounts in US East, narrowing to about 10 Tier 1 accounts, each worth $1M+ in annual potential
- Write a workload thesis for every Tier 1: the specific production outcome, who owns it, what it's worth, and what has to be true to win itGet in the room with CIOs, CTOs, VPs of Engineering, and the line-of-business owners who actually hold the budget
- Run the full cycle alongside your FDEprospect, qualify, design the commercial architecture, negotiate, close
Agree the commercial destination before any custom work begins. No free discovery, no free development.
Hold the line on POC discipline: named executive sponsor, written success criteria, production pricing already discussed, a decision date, and a signed commercial document. POCs end in production or they end.
Expand the accountone workload becomes three, one $500K customer becomes a $2M customer
Forecast accurately and keep the pipeline clean. No surprises.
What We're Looking For:
- 5+ years of enterprise sales experience selling CPaaS, UCaaS, CCaaS, telecom, or AI/ML platforms
- Consistent overachievement against a seven-figure quota, with individual deals over $1MCredible with executive and technical buyers alikeyou hold your own in the boardroom and in the architecture review
- Hunter mentality. You build your own pipeline and you like doing it.
- Consultative selling range: you can build the ROI case for a CFO and the technical case for a VP of Engineering, and hold your ground against Twilio and Vonage
- Disciplined with a methodology (MEDDPICC, Challenger, SPIN) and with the stack (Salesforce, Outreach, Gong)
- Excellent written and verbal communication. You listen before you pitch.
- Willing to travel across US East to meet customers in person
Bonus Points:
- ForFortune 500 or large-enterprise new-logo experience in the US East market
- Complex sales cycles involving RFPs and competitive bake-offs, plus procurement, security, and legal review
- Working knowledge of SIP trunking, number provisioning, carrier networks, or AI/ML infrastructure
