We grew from $1M to $10M ARR in under 12 months and now serve 10,000+ customers.

Your Role

As an Account Executive at fonio, you're a closer through and through. You get warm, pre-qualified leads every day and know exactly what to do with them. And when the pipeline dries out, you don't wait around: you go on the hunt for deals.

What to expect

  • Inbound demos: 8–16 qualified demo calls per day
  • Quota ownership: clear monthly and quarterly targets
  • Pipeline management: structured follow-ups and clean CRM hygiene
  • Help sharpen our sales motion as we scale fast

Who We're Looking For

  • 1+ years of sales experience in transactional or B2B SaaS sales
  • Proven closing track record along a structured funnel
  • High discipline, strong ownership, and a genuine hunger to earn
  • Natural communicator and storyteller
  • Native or C2 Italian; strong English. German is a big plus.

What We Offer

  • €70.000-€100.000 OTE (base + uncapped commission)
  • Equity - you build it, you should own a piece of it.
  • Unlimited budget with the right ROI
  • Food & drinks - at our Vienna office, lunch and dinner are on us (plus all the drinks your heart desires, and yes, we have protein bars and vitamins too).
  • Relocation bonus (in case you want to stay in Vienna)
  • Equipment of your choice - whatever makes you happy.
  • Regular team offsites.

Hiring Process

  • 15 min intro call
  • 45 min skill interview with our CCO Alex, including a demo simulation
  • 30 min chat to get to know the go-to-market manager
  • 20 min culture call with our Founders

How we hire?

We're AI-native, including in hiring. AI helps us to remain efficient, but people make every decision.

fonio is an equal opportunity employer. We hire for talent and ownership, whatever your background is. Need an adjustment in the process? Just tell us.
