About the Company
The startup is an AI-powered conversational commerce platform built for India’s D2C brands. We help brands turn conversations into revenue across the full customer journey, from discovery and cart recovery to post-purchase engagement and retention. We work with hundreds of D2C brands across the Indian e-commerce ecosystem and have built deep partnerships with leading enablers like GoKwik. We are in a high-growth phase, evolving from a chatbot product into the conversational engagement layer for Indian commerce.
About the Role
We’re hiring a driven, sharp, high-ownership Account executive who can turn cold curiosity into clear urgency, and conversations into live trials. We run 100+ high-quality demos every month for fast-growing D2C and Shopify brands. In our funnel, the demo is the most critical moment. This role exists to ensure that every demo creates conviction, generates urgency, and carries momentum through to trial activation. This is not a pricing-heavy closer role.

- Hand off only high-intent, activated accounts to billing team

- 2 - 4 years experience in B2B SaaS sales, pre-sales, or AE roles
- Excellent communication skills, English fluency and convincing ability
