Job Description

Pylon is a Series B, AI-native B2B company building the next generation of customer support.


Legacy platforms like Zendesk and Salesforce Service Cloud were built around tickets. Pylon is built around accounts, real-time collaboration, and AI-driven customer intelligence.


This is a massive market with incumbents that weren’t built for AI-first workflows.

  • Partner closely with leadership to refine segmentation, quotas, and process

  • Lead deal reviews, pipeline inspection, forecasting, and performance management

Why now

We’ve built a strong AE bench and proven PMF. The next phase is scaling managers and process — this role helps turn what works today into a repeatable, high-performing sales org.


Requirements

  • 2+ years managing SaaS AEs

  • Experience scaling a team beyond the “early reps” phase

  • Strong coaching instincts and operational rigor

  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity and building process from scratch

  • Based in SF or NYC and willing to work in-person


Nice to Haves
