Remote Senior Account Executive

The Mission: Strategic Growth & Deep-Tech Advisory

At Illuin Technology, we don't just "sell" software; we architect the AI future of the world's largest organizations. As a Senior Account Executive, your mission is to manage a strategic portfolio of 5 to 10 major enterprise accounts. You aren't just a vendor; you are a trusted advisor navigating high-stakes environments to deliver durable, multi-year partnerships.

You will master a dual-track revenue model: driving multi-year licenses for our cutting-edge AI product suite while orchestrating high-impact strategic consulting projects. Your success is measured by your ability to penetrate complex organizations, build C-Level intimacy, and turn technical excellence into sustainable commercial success.

Your DNA

The Strategic Hunter: You thrive in the complexity of long sales cycles (6-12 months). You don't just wait for leads; you build account plans that map out stakeholders and influence the RFP before it's even written.

Hybrid Commercial Profile: You are equally at home selling scalable SaaS products as you are selling high-value, bespoke strategic services (Time & Materials (T&M) and Fixed-price).

AI Fluent: You possess a deep cognitive curiosity for AI and IT architecture. You can hold your own in a room of CTOs and Data Leads, translating technical capabilities into business ROI.

The "Field" Mentality: You believe sales happen in the room, not just on Zoom. You enjoy being on the field, building relationships in person, and mastering the nuances of the Paris business ecosystem.

Force Multiplier: You make the team better-sharing best practices, supporting peers, and stepping in when needed. Your presence increases the effectiveness and cohesion of the entire group and helping more junior team members

Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with our Pre-sales, Products and Engineering teams to ensure that the "vision" sold is technically sound and perfectly delivered.
