Account Executive

Lorikeet Opportunity

Lorikeet is the most powerful customer support AI for complex businesses like fintechs, healthtechs, marketplaces and delivery services. We're doing this by building ground up from the premise that most support responses should be automated with transparent, customizable AI, and that support teams should spend their time managing automation and engaging with complex cases, not grinding through high volumes of simple tickets. Once teams are freed from reactive support, we want to help them tackle what's next : providing personalized concierge services to their customers.

To deliver this combination of powerful AI systems and well designed tooling we're leveraging Jamie's experience as an early member of Google's generative AI team and Steve's experience building for operational teams at Stripe, as well as the experience of our team who've joined us from places like Stripe, Canva, Atlassian, Dropbox and Dovetail.

We are growing fast, have dozens of paying customers with five to six figure contracts, real revenue, an exciting roadmap and a strong sales pipeline. We're well funded by leading VCs and angel investors, including Blackbird, Square Peg, Claire Hughes Johnson (ex Stripe COO), Cristina Cordova (Linear COO), Bob Van Winden (Stripe Head of Support), and Cos Nicolaescu (Brex CTO).

Our global customers include :

• The largest telehealth company in Australia
• The largest bank for teens in the US
• One of the largest NFT marketplaces by trading volume
• One of the largest Web3 gaming companies
• and a handful of other enterprise customers with over 1 million support tickets a year.

What's Unique About This Opportunity?

High pay, high expectations, high performance. We're building a small, great team. We aim to match unicorn / scale up pay for OTE and offer uncapped commission with aggressive accelerators, as well as an equity stake in the business. Our team gets the same monthly updates we send to our investors because they're investors and owners too.

On the technical cutting edge. With our users we're defining what an AI-first SaaS product looks like. No one has figured out what the UI / UX, capabilities and data models of an AI first company are - it's white space for us to invent. The AI agent problems we're solving are beyond the cutting edge at the biggest research labs.

No nonsense recruitment process. The process is : 1) informal chats with Steve and Jamie to hear our pitch and understand your interests and goals, 2) a ~two day paid work trial where you come in and ship with us. There's no better way for each of us to figure out if we like working together than to work together!

Warm, mature, flexible culture. Low ego, high trust team. No tolerance for 'talented jerks'. We embrace a) working efficiently, and b) working flexible hours to fit in life priorities outside of work. We're committed to building a diverse team and really encourage folks from underrepresented backgrounds to reach out - we value user obsession and eagerness to learn over traditional credentials.
