About Vertex

Vertex is a high-growth enterprise software company powering real-time, cloud-native 3D applications for the world’s most advanced manufacturers. Our platform enables Fortune 500 industrial and defense-adjacent organizations to deploy scalable, highly performant 3D-enabled workflows in secure AWS environments, including GovCloud.

We operate at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, enterprise engineering systems, and mission-critical deployments. As Vertex scales and expands into complex enterprise programs, operational excellence and deployment reliability are critical to our success.

The Role

Vertex is seeking a Senior Enterprise Account Executive to own and close a small number of complex, high-value enterprise opportunities. This is not a high-volume or transactional sales role. It is designed for experienced enterprise sellers who are comfortable operating in long sales cycles, multi-stakeholder buying environments, and execution-constrained deals.

This role is accountable for closing enterprise agreements with confidence and integrity—ensuring deals close on the forecasted timeline and are execution-ready at signature.

You will work in close partnership with:

• VP of Sales (deal strategy and executive alignment)
• Head of Revenue Execution (deal orchestration, governance, and risk management)
• VP of Customer Experience (delivery readiness and expansion planning)
• Product, Engineering, and Cloud/Security leadership

This role succeeds through judgment, discipline, and credibility, not activity volume.

Reporting Structure

• Reports to: VP of Sales

What You Will Own

Enterprise Deal Ownership

• Own a defined set of named enterprise accounts and late-stage opportunities
• Lead complex, multi-threaded sales processes from qualification through contract execution
• Drive clarity on the buying process, decision criteria, and timing risk
• Navigate procurement, legal, security, and executive approval processes
• Maintain primary accountability for deal closure and timing commitments

Execution Discipline

• Partner with the Head of Revenue Execution to ensure deals are execution-ready prior to signature
• Validate pricing, scope, delivery assumptions, security posture, and resourcing
• Surface risks early and proactively—no late-stage surprises
• Maintain forecast integrity and confidence accuracy across assigned opportunities

Strategic Account Expansion

• Develop account strategies focused on multi-year enterprise expansion
• Convert funded POCs into production agreements
• Define credible expansion paths at or before initial close
• Align expansion plans with customer outcomes, platform adoption, and delivery capacity

Executive & Partner Engagement

• Build trusted relationships with senior customer stakeholders
• Participate in executive-level customer discussions and negotiations
• Coordinate with strategic partners (e.g., AWS) where applicable to accelerate deals
• Support the development of flagship enterprise case studies post-close

What Success Looks Like

• Enterprise agreements close on the timeline forecasted
• Minimal execution surprises after signature
• High internal confidence in deal quality and readiness
• Expansion paths are defined, credible, and actionable at close
• Cross-functional teams trust your deal leadership and judgment

What You Need to Succeed

• 10+ years of enterprise B2B software sales experience
• Proven success closing $500K–$5M+ ARR enterprise agreements
• Experience with long sales cycles (6–18 months)
• Demonstrated ability to navigate complex procurement and legal processes
• Track record of forecast accuracy and disciplined deal execution

What Will Set You Apart

• Manufacturing, industrial, or enterprise SaaS background
• Experience selling platform or infrastructure-adjacent software
• Familiarity with PLM, engineering systems, or complex enterprise IT environments
• Experience working closely with delivery, product, and security teams in enterprise deals

Role Characteristics

• This is not a transactional or SMB sales role
• This is not a lone-wolf sales role
• This is a highly collaborative, execution-oriented position
• This role values judgment, discipline, and credibility over activity volume

Our Technology Stack

• We collaborate using Slack, Zoom, Google Workspace, Jira, and GitHub
• We operate with high trust, clear accountability, and a strong bias toward ownership
• Our platform integrates deeply with enterprise systems such as PLM, ERP, CRM, and MES
• We partner closely with AWS and operate at enterprise scale with strict security and compliance requirements

Why This Role Matters

• Close multi-year enterprise agreements
• Reduce execution risk on large, complex deals
• Scale beyond founder-led selling
• Build a credible, repeatable enterprise motion

If you are an experienced enterprise seller who thrives in complex environments and values disciplined execution as much as closing, this role offers meaningful ownership and impact.
