Tungsten scales specialized knowledge work at enterprises without hiring more

headcount.

As our Founding GTM Lead, you’ll work directly with the founders to build our

sales motion from the ground up. You’ll generate pipeline, own deals through

close, and grow existing customer relationships. There’s no fully established

playbook: you’ll help define who we sell to, how we communicate value, and what

makes the motion repeatable.

This is a hands-on individual contributor role with founding-level ownership.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

  • Generate your own pipeline. Identify promising accounts and buyers, develop
  • targeted outreach, and create opportunities through outbound, referrals, and
  • partners.
  • Own the full sales cycle. Lead discovery, build the business case, align
  • stakeholders, negotiate commercial terms, and close.
  • Turn workshops into signed deals. Take commercial ownership after founder-led
  • workshops, establish success criteria and next steps, and navigate security,
  • legal, and procurement with support from our team.
  • Expand existing accounts. Build relationships beyond the initial champion and
  • uncover additional use cases within and across functions.
  • Build the playbook with us. Test and refine our ICP, messaging,
  • qualification, pricing, and sales process based on what works.
  • Connect customer needs to product decisions. Work with founders and
  • engineering to scope valuable, achievable opportunities and bring customer
  • feedback into product development.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

  • Experience personally sourcing and closing complex B2B software deals,
  • ideally as an early seller at a startup.
  • Ability to sell to business owners: understand their workflows, quantify
  • value, identify budget, and build a compelling case for change.
  • Experience moving evaluations through enterprise procurement and growing
  • accounts after the first purchase.
  • Enough technical fluency to understand AI capabilities, data integrations,
  • and deployment constraints, and explain them clearly to business audiences.
  • Comfort working with ambiguity, trying approaches that may fail, and turning
  • what you learn into a better sales motion.
  • Strong ownership and follow-through. You can move deals forward independently
  • and know when to bring in the founders.
  • Experience selling AI applications or workflow automation is a plus.

  • business, and grows.
  • Help shape the product through direct customer work.Backed by top-tier
  • investors and multiple enterprises already running in production.
