About Shakudo
The pitch Shakudo's reps carry is AI that never leaves the customer's walls: agents, model access, data integration and governance run on compute the buyer owns, and Shakudo engineers build the system with the customer's team. Account executives work the full cycle, from finding the lead to closing it, with CIOs, CTOs and other C-level buyers at mid-market and enterprise firms in data-sensitive trades such as nuclear energy, oil and gas, healthcare, financial services, rail and automotive manufacturing; one seat is open in Menlo Park and one in Toronto, the Toronto posting asking for five to ten years of complex B2B or data and AI selling and a quota record. Pipeline is built two ways: a Toronto BDR owns inbound qualification and high-volume outbound calling, with a stated path to AE within 12 months, and a Channel BDR in Menlo Park is the first hire dedicated to recruiting independent consultants who advise enterprise technology leaders, signing them as partners who open meetings in return for bonuses on what they generate. Two Solutions Architects on the Stack team, in Toronto and Bengaluru, own the technical relationship with assigned accounts and answer partly for growing them. Of the six seats, three are in Toronto, two in Menlo Park and one in Bengaluru, all on site.

Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.

Pay at Shakudo
Stated by the company, checked 2026-10-30From our research: stated by the company, checked 2026-10-30

The Menlo Park account executive, both BDR postings and the two Solutions Architect postings name no figure and promise a competitive salary with equity instead.
