About the Company

We are shaping the future of government contracting with breakthrough AI‑driven solutions. We’re actively disrupting a multi‑billion dollar industry, enabling cutting‑edge private sector technologies to rapidly secure government contracts, fortifying our national security and economic growth. Gov Signals has built the most advanced government contracting AI solution on the market. Whether you’re from a small business or a Fortune 500, our platform increases the number of solicitations government contractors can pursue and empowers them to produce winning, fully compliant proposals in hours rather than months.

We don’t just follow government trends; we lead them. As one of the largest government data aggregators in the industry, we’re able to understand what the government will do before the government knows.

About the Role

We are seeking an Enterprise Account Executive with a proven background in closing 5‑ and 6‑figure contracts, preferably supporting the government contracting industry. This role is ideal for a results‑oriented professional who is equally comfortable engaging in strategic discussions with senior stakeholders and diving into the tactical aspects of closing deals. You will work closely with our leadership, product, and client success teams to grow the sales pipeline and close deals.

You will run the first and second calls with prospects, lead demos, discover their needs, and identify where Gov Signals can drive outsized value. We have a lot of motivated prospects coming inbound, and we need your help to move them through our funnel and close them. You’ll identify where we can solve their problems, give them a tailored demo, define their business case, and close them into a contract that will be led by our client success team.

In this high‑visibility role, you will leverage your Gov Con and B2B sales expertise to develop, nurture, and close deals. If you excel at finding the win‑win solution for clients and are excited about shaping the future of government contracting, we’d love to hear from you!

Key Responsibilities

    Present product demos with senior leadership of companies ranging from $10 million revenue companies to billion‑dollar revenue companies.
  • Close Business:
    Handle the massive, constant flow of new business coming in from medium to large‑size enterprises. We need great closers, not solely cold callers or just friendly people.
  • Business Development:
    Think on your feet and solve problems for a prospect, rather than just pushing off the rack solutions.
  • Drive New Business:
    Identify and pursue prospects that would benefit from Gov Signals’ AI‑powered platform through targeted outreach and conference engagement.
  • Cross‑functional

    Collaboration:

    Work with product, engineering, and customer success teams to ensure customer feedback is translated into continued platform enhancements.

    Represent Gov Signals at relevant Gov Con conferences, webinars, and speaking engagements, showcasing the platform’s unique capabilities and establishing industry thought leadership.
Qualifications
  • Experience:

    At least 5 years of B2B sales experience, with a preference for 1 year or more in the government contracting space. You should be a closer who can close continuously with steady inbound flow.
  • SaaS Background:
    Demonstrable success in driving revenue growth for a SaaS or subscription‑based product, ideally in a commission‑heavy structure.
  • Gov Con Knowledge:
    Deep understanding of the Gov Con lifecycle, including solicitations, bids, and compliance requirements.
  • Communication

    Skills:

    Outstanding verbal and written communication skills, capable of engaging high‑level stakeholders and delivering compelling product presentations.
  • Proven Track Record:
    History of meeting or exceeding sales quotas, with strong negotiation and closing skills.

    Total Target‑All‑In‑Comp: $175k – $250k+, No commission cap
  • Meaningful equity in a well‑funded, fast‑growing startup
