We specialize in architecting custom, scalable software solutions that drive digital transformation for both agile startups and established enterprises. Role Overview & Responsibilities We are seeking a high-octane Outside Sales Representative to drive the expansion of our custom software portfolio. This is a field-heavy, consultative role requiring a rare blend of technical fluency and closing grit. You won't be following a script; you will be diagnosing business inefficiencies and architecting high-value solutions alongside our engineering teams.

Strategic Market Expansion:

Identify and penetrate new business opportunities within the U.S. market through cold outreach, high-level networking, and industry events.

Consultative Solution Design:

Lead in-depth discovery sessions to understand client pain points and translate them into custom technical roadmaps.

Technical Liaison:

Act as the bridge between client stakeholders and our internal dev teams, ensuring technical concepts are communicated clearly to non-technical executives.

End-to-End Deal Ownership:

Own the full sales lifecycle—from initial prospecting and crafting ROI-focused proposals to complex contract negotiations and closing.

Field Representation:

Travel frequently (U.S. and international) to represent Salvo Software at conferences and face-to-face client summits.

Relationship Management:

Build and nurture long-term strategic partnerships to ensure client retention and identify opportunities for account growth.

Data-Driven Optimization:

Utilize HubSpot and market research to refine outreach strategies, track KPIs, and provide transparent performance reporting.

Requirements Must-Have Technical Literacy:

A deep understanding of the custom software development lifecycle (SDLC) and the ability to talk "shop" with engineers and CEOs alike.

Consultative Sales Excellence:

Proven track record in high-ticket, solution-based sales (experience in custom services is mandatory; this is not a high-volume SaaS "seat" sale).

Strategic Autonomy:

Ability to self-manage as part of a remote team and execute a comprehensive sales strategy from the ground up.

Communication Mastery:

Professional-level English fluency with exceptional presentation and public speaking skills.

Negotiation Grit:

A "closer" mindset with the ability to manage complex deal cycles and drive high-value ROI conversations.

Nice-to-Have Educational Background:

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Business, or a related technical field.

CRM Power User:

Advanced proficiency in HubSpot for lead generation and pipeline management.

Network:

An existing book of contacts or a strong network within the U.S. or European enterprise technology sectors.
