Job description
Exa is building a search engine from scratch to serve every AI agent. We build massive-scale infrastructure to crawl the web, train state-of-the-art embedding models to process it, and design super high performant vector databases in rust to search over it. If you like compute, we also own a $5M H200 GPU cluster (and soon 5x'ing that) and regularly spin up batchjobs with tens of thousands of machines.
We recently raised an $85M Series B from Benchmark, and we are rapidly building the most intelligent search engine in history. We’re high agency, low-ego, and united by the feeling that this is one of the last problems worth getting right.
Now, we’re looking for an Account Executive to help us bring Exa to new verticals.
About The Role
As an Account Executive at Exa, you will work with customers who need speed, intelligence, and accuracy in their workflows. You’ll take full ownership of deals—prospecting, running demos, negotiating, and closing.
What You’ll Do
Who You Are
This is an in-person opportunity in San Francisco. We are open to sponsoring International candidates (e.g STEM OPT, OPT, H1B, O1, E3) In addition to premium healthcare benefits (medical, dental, vision), we also offer fertility benefits and a monthly wellness stipend to all of our employees.
Compensation Range: $200K - $450K
