Sales Engineer

Founded in 2018 by engineers from Stanford, Cisco Meraki, and Samsara, Spot AI is the fastest growing Video Intelligence company in the U.S. We are upending the $30 billion video surveillance market with an AI Camera System to help people at work create safer, smarter organizations. In the process, we’re disrupting video security to create a new category of Video Intelligence.

We are experiencing tremendous growth and are deployed at thousands of locations across businesses in 17 different verticals, ranging from local businesses to Fortune 500s. Our customers range from warehousing and healthcare to nonprofits and car washes including SpaceX, ExtraSpace Storage, WineDirect, YMCA, and Veg Fresh Farms.

We’ve recently raised $40M Series B financing to continue to transform how organizations use their video footage. We’re backed by Scale Venture Partners, Redpoint Ventures, Bessemer Venture Partners, StepStone Group, and MVP Ventures.

You are excited when the sales processes you participate in deliver the “technical win” not only for Spot AI prospects, but also for the Account Executives you support and the business itself.  You are a polished business communicator, able to speak with stakeholders with buying power at all levels.  You are able to quickly establish yourself as a technical and product expert with IT stakeholders gaining trust that allows you to navigate conversations and handle objections with ease.  You recognize opportunities to iterate on current sales processes, and align your new ideas internally and with customers.  You enjoy having a close partnership with internal IT champions to understand their needs based on their customer interaction, and you will work cross-functionally with the product team to create feedback loops that help guide the product roadmap.  You are excited about disrupting an emerging industry, and have no fear in taking on the competition during buying cycles.  You enjoy a collaborative environment, and evolving with the ever-changing needs of a startup.
