About StepsAI
StepsAI is building AI agents for businesses across websites, Shopify stores, Instagram, WhatsApp, Facebook, and other customer-facing channels.
Our AI agents help businesses answer customer questions instantly, recommend products, capture leads, track orders, book meetings, automate workflows, reduce support load, and increase conversions.
We're an early-stage AI SaaS startup building the next generation of customer engagement, where AI agents help businesses sell, support, guide, and convert customers 24/7.
We're looking for an Account Executive who can work closely with our sales team to convert qualified opportunities into customers and grow into a strong B2B SaaS sales professional.
The Role
This is a hands-on sales role for someone who already has experience in sales and is ready to take the next step in their career.
You will work with qualified leads generated by our SDR and Marketing teams, conduct discovery calls, understand customer requirements, conduct product demonstrations, follow up with prospects, handle objections, and help close deals.
You'll work closely with senior sales team members and founders while gradually taking greater ownership of your own sales pipeline and revenue targets.
We're looking for someone who is hungry to learn, comfortable speaking with customers, highly proactive, and willing to take ownership.

- Maintain consistent follow-ups throughout the sales cycle.
- Maintain accurate CRM records and opportunity stages.
- Coordinate with SDRs to ensure smooth lead handovers.
- Work with Customer Success during the transition from closed deal to onboarding.
- Learn from customer conversations and share market feedback with the team.
- Gradually take ownership of opportunities and close deals independently.

What We're Looking For
