About The Role

As a Key Account Executive, you will own the full sales cycle, from outbound discovery and demos to complex negotiations and closing. You will be a foundational member of our enterprise team, shaping how enterprise sales are built at Chef Robotics.

What You’ll Do:

  • Manage multi-stakeholder buying processes within large-scale food manufacturing and contract manufacturing firms.
  • Drive enterprise-grade deals with an average contract value (ACV) ranging from $100K to $1M.
  • Own the end-to-end sales process, including discovery, demos, and proposals, with the support of a strong SDR and technical team.
  • As an early member of the enterprise team, you will help define the Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) and the future of our sales motion.

Who You Are:

  • You have a proven track record of navigating complex organizations and closing deals that move the needle for the business.
  • You thrive in high-stakes environments and are motivated by closing six-figure enterprise deals.
  • You are excited by the prospect of deploying AI and robotics to solve critical labor challenges in the food industry.
  • You enjoy the "inflection point" stage of a startup—where the product is proven, but there is still significant room to shape the direction of the company.

Why Join Us Now?

  • We are in a sector that has been slow to adopt automation but is now moving fast.
  • Join a team heading into a Series B with a pipeline that is already outgrowing our current capacity.
  • This is a window where career-defining deals are made, and you will have a direct hand in scaling a leader in AI robotics.
