Founding Account Executive

Why Atrix

Breakthrough medicines all start the same way: years of research, mountains of data, and countless decisions made by medical teams within the world's premier biopharma labs. These decisions then determine which treatments make it to market, how doctors learn about them, and ultimately which patients get access to life-saving care and when.

We're at an inflection point. AI-powered drug discovery, precision medicine, and an explosion of real-world evidence have accelerated what's possible, but the teams translating science into patient access are drowning in data they can't use. The tools haven't kept up with the stakes.

Atrix builds purpose-built AI for life sciences, designed for the accuracy and rigor biopharma requires. We're live with top-10 pharmaceutical companies, scaling fast, and focused on one thing: helping the right treatments reach the right patients, sooner.

Why We are Hiring

We are hiring our Founding Account Executive to address the capacity bottleneck of founder-led sales and accelerate our path to becoming the industry standard platform for Life Sciences companies. You will be responsible for taking the handoff from our CEO, refining a repeatable enterprise playbook, and driving net new lands within the world's largest pharmaceutical and medical device organizations.

As the Founding Account Executive, you will be responsible for building and owning Atrix’s go-to-market motion driving both new customer acquisition and expansion within pivotal accounts.

You will establish repeatable sales processes, partner with cross-functional leadership, and serve as the voice of the customer in shaping Atrix’s product and strategy. You’ll work directly with biotech, pharma, and medtech organizations to help them overcome regulatory, market access, and evidence-generation challenges through Atrix’s platform.

This role is central to Atrix’s mission: accelerating the safe, evidence-based adoption of breakthrough medicines and technologies. Every customer relationship you build and expand directly supports scientists, medical affairs teams, and market access leaders working to bring life-saving innovations to patients faster.

What you'll own

• Own the full sales cycle—from prospecting and discovery to negotiation, close, and expansion.

• Drive early net-new revenue while laying the foundation for scalable growth.

Expand Pivotal Customers

• Develop deep executive relationships within key life sciences accounts.

• Identify and execute expansion opportunities across geographies, business units, and use cases.

Codify the Sales Playbook

Act as a Trusted Advisor

• Develop case studies and reference accounts demonstrating measurable customer outcomes.

Foster Cross-Functional Alignment

• Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and Customer Success.

• Ensure every customer partnership reinforces Atrix’s mission and delivers long-term value.

Must haves

• 6–8+ years of experience in enterprise B2B sales, including full-cycle ownership (prospecting → close → expansion).

• Proven success managing 6–12 month sales cycles with $300K–$3M+ deal values and 10–20+ stakeholders.

• Experience selling technical SaaS products into complex or regulated industries.

• Early-stage startup experience (Seed–Series A); ability to thrive in 0→1 environments.

• Experience representing a company at conferences or tradeshows.

• Skilled in LinkedIn Sales Navigator, CRM management (HubSpot/Salesforce), outbound tools (Apollo/Outreach), and data/BI tools.

• High agency, intellectual curiosity, and a “figure it out” mentality.
