About Rootly

At Rootly, we are on a mission to be the go-to way companies respond when things go wrong, helping every organization be more reliable. We do this by building an industry-leading incident management platform that allows companies around the world to consistently and quickly resolve incidents. We are not simply transforming an industry, we are carving out a new multi-billion-dollar category ourselves and need incredible talent to achieve this ambitious goal together.

Customers love Rootly. Some of the fastest-growing companies around the world such as NVIDIA, DoorDash, Uber, Canva, Tripadvisor, Squarespace and more rely on Rootly to power their critical incident management process. They obsess over our delightful enterprise-ready platform and unique partnership model. See why our customers have reviewed us 5 stars on G2.

Investors love Rootly. We are backed by some of the most respected funds in the world from Y Combinator to operators like the CTO of Dropbox and GitHub. We'd be happy to disclose our entire funding and profitability picture live during the interview. As a culture we relentlessly put transparency first. We conduct monthly financial reviews as a team so everyone has a pulse on the health of the business and publish what we are building in our weekly changelog.

About the Role

This is a ground-floor opportunity to be one of the first Enterprise Account Executives at Rootly and shape our trajectory. You will experience what being at a scrappy startup is like. You will help lay the foundation for the entire sales process and grow revenue by:

  • Building a book of business across North America that results in 100% quota attainment in your first year with Rootly.
  • Sourcing and closing full sales cycles for US$50K to US$150K+ ARR opportunities.
  • Winning highly competitive deals by positioning Rootly as the incident management and on-call platform of choice for enterprise buyer segments.
  • Designing and presenting product narratives and insights to executives within named accounts.
  • Working with company leaders from multiple functions to lead product workshops and prepare and present ROI analyses.
  • Leading and contributing to team projects to develop and refine our sales process.

What You'll Need

We care more about execution, ownership, and impact than fancy degrees or FAANG experience. If the following resonates with you, we want to hear from you:

  • Enterprise sales experience: you have 7+ years selling enterprise software to SMB and enterprise accounts.
  • Quota ownership: you have owned enterprise software quotas of US$1M+.
  • Product and domain expertise: you love becoming an expert, sell consultatively, and teach prospects something at every touchpoint.
  • Negotiation skills: you have a proven ability to lead complex negotiations involving bespoke commercial and pricing agreements.
  • Exceptional communication: you communicate incredibly well, both remotely and in person.
  • Executive presence: you enjoy getting in the room with economic buyers and working with complex organizations to find and close great-fit deals.
  • Autonomy: you do your best work in a highly ambiguous, fast-paced environment.
  • Technical fluency: you are comfortable communicating the value of technical B2B SaaS solutions to technical stakeholders.

Why Rootly?

We're not just another startup. We're building something category-defining and want teammates who crave ownership, love solving hard problems, and thrive in a high-bar, high-impact environment.

Here's what you can expect when you join Rootly:

  • Competitive compensation and early equity in a fast-growing, venture-backed company.
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage.
  • 3 weeks of vacation, plus unlimited sick and mental health days, and a company-wide end-of-year shutdown to recharge.
  • $500 stipend for home office setup.
  • Unlimited token usage and access to AI tools.
  • A fast-moving, high-impact environment where your leadership and ideas directly shape the future of the company.

This is a newly created vacancy.

As we build out the team, we may use AI to support parts of our interview process, like reviewing assessments, but it's a tool that helps our people, not a substitute for their judgement.

If this sounds like the kind of challenge and opportunity you're looking for, apply now and let's build something great together.

Accommodations are available on request at any stage of our recruitment process. Contact [email protected] and we will work with you to meet your needs confidentially.
