About the role

SnapMagic is building the digital growth engine for the global electronics industry.

SnapMagic sits directly inside the engineering workflow - the moment where design decisions are made - and turns that intent into measurable demand, influence, and revenue for component manufacturers. Think digital marketing, demand intelligence, and ROI attribution for hardware.

Our core platform (formerly SnapEDA) already reaches 2M+ engineers annually and is the default discovery layer for electronic components. We’re now scaling SnapMagic Copilot, built on a proprietary dataset of 10M+ components, serving as the discovery and demand layer for the global electronics industry.

This is a category-defining opportunity.

We’re hiring a Head of Sales to build the revenue engine behind it.

Since our seed round, we’ve doubled revenue with a small team operating at a very high bar. The demand is real. The market is ready. What’s missing is a sales leader who can turn momentum into a streamlined, repeatable engine.

What you’ll do

Read this carefully: this is a builder role, not a delegator role.

This is a hands-on, execution-first role for someone who wants to own outcomes:

  • You will personally run a high volume of discovery calls, proposals, and closes until the motion is proven.
  • You will personally define the sales motion by selling repeatedly and learning from real customer interactions.
  • You will set the standard for excellence through examples, templates, playbooks, and execution
  • You will prepare and run weekly sales, pipeline, and forecast meetings
  • You will ensure operational discipline: if it isn’t in HubSpot, it didn’t happen. You operate with total transparency and precision.

The role has two phases:

  • Phase 1: Sell personally, define the motion
  • Phase 2: Recruit and lead the team

Responsibilities

  • Own, run, and deliver revenue end-to-end
  • Run discovery, pricing, negotiation, and close strategic deals yourself
  • Build the motion: ICP, pricing, packaging, contracts, pipeline hygiene, forecasting, decks, 1-pagers, and templates
  • Maintain a tight operating rhythm with the CEO; clear, fast communication on progress and risks
  • Use data to craft compelling value stories and build ROI models
  • Build a repeatable lead engine
  • Run daily pipeline reviews and maintain high weekly deal volume
  • Outbound when needed to drive the pipeline

After the motion is proven, hire and develop top reps and set the operating cadence for predictable revenue.

Who we’re looking for

Someone who thrives in early-stage environments and wants to build the playbook and pitch decks, not follow existing processes. Your first 30/60/90 days are focused on proving the motion through direct selling before hiring your first rep.

You are:

  • Strong in digital marketing, demand gen, attribution, ROI, and long-term value selling
  • Thrives in a high-speed, accountability-first culture
  • Writes clearly and professionally; excellent with customer-facing communication
  • Commercially sharp, deeply accountable, direct, and fast
  • Does the unglamorous work “like clockwork” (invoices, follow-ups, revenue ops)
  • High bar for yourself and others
  • Takes feedback neutrally and converts it into execution
  • Able to reason through complex pricing, ROI, and category-creation conversations
  • Keeps on top of follow-ups and deadlines with a bias to action
  • Calm under pressure; handles objections without defensiveness
  • Transparent - escalates risks early and brings data
  • Leads by example first, operational rigor second, delegation last
  • Not a strategist-only operator; you lead from the front

How we work

  • In office Monday, Wednesday, Friday
  • Remote on Tuesday and Thursday

If you want to build a category, sell something truly new, and operate at a high bar, we’d love to talk.
