ABOUT THE ROLE
This is your opportunity to play a key role in Mindfuel’s next growth phase toward Series A and beyond.
As our Founding Account Executive and the first AE at Mindfuel, you will join an early, ambitious commercial team with real traction. Your focus will be to take a working sales motion and help turn it into a scalable revenue engine.
You are joining at a moment where your impact truly matters. It is early enough that you can shape how we sell, but grounded enough in what already works so that you can build on a strong foundation.
You will collaborate closely with a small and motivated GTM team, including our CEO, our SDR and our product leadership. Together, you will expand and professionalize our sales approach, while independently driving your own opportunities and bringing your experience into how we evolve our commercial strategy.
This role combines ownership, influence and momentum. If you want to help shape a growing Data and AI SaaS company from an early stage and directly influence Mindfuel's trajectory, this is the right moment to join.
What will be your responsibility
- Build and expand a shared pipeline of enterprise opportunities across inbound, outbound and event-driven channels, while independently driving your own deals
- Own the full sales cycle from qualification to closing, supported by our SDR and working together with us to further develop and refine our playbooks and processes
- Run structured discovery sessions to understand customer challenges and needs and map them to Mindfuel’s added value drivers
- Build and deliver compelling demos and value cases in close collaboration with our value acceleration team for both technical and business stakeholders
- Lead commercial negotiations by yourself with confidence and ownership and build strong relationships with C-level and VP-level decision-makers
- Collaborate in a winning team together with like-minded colleagues and our CEO on G2M strategy topics, e.g. messaging, market motions and strategic segments/industries
- Shape and co-own our sales playbook, refine messaging and improve processes as we scale
- Work cross-functionally with product, marketing and customer success to ensure a smooth customer journey
- Bring structured market and customer insights into our GTM and product roadmap
What you'll need
- 3–5 years of experience in B2B SaaS sales, ideally in environments with existing structure but room for hands-on improvement
- A proven track record as a high-performing individual contributor
- Strong understanding of consultative, multi-stakeholder enterprise sales
- Excellent communication and negotiation skills
- Structured, analytical, and self-driven — able to operate autonomously within a collaborative setup
- Experience with HubSpot or similar CRM systems
- Fluent in German and English
- Comfort working in an evolving environment where foundations exist, but not everything is set in stone
What we'll offer you
- Remote-first setup with access to our Munich office and backyard workspace
- Flexible working hours and "take what you need" vacation policy
- Direct collaboration with our CEO and the chance to shape how we sell from the ground up
- Competitive salary plus virtual ESOP – so you grow with us
- A team of motivated, kind, and inspiring colleagues
- A role in a growing SaaS company in the Data & AI space, joining at the ideal moment to make a lasting impact
- Regular team events and some friendly Spikeball or Table Tennis matches
Extra props for
- Experience in the Data, Analytics, or AI space
- Experience selling to enterprise accounts with multiple stakeholders
- Strategic mindset — balancing short-term results with long-term pipeline building
- Experience helping improve an existing sales setup (not building from scratch)
- Curiosity for technology and innovation
- Strong Spikeball or Table Tennis skills (our signature Mindfuel games)
