Replit is seeking candidates with technical backgrounds for a unique opportunity to be an early member of our sales team. While this position is listed as "Sales Engineering," it is, in fact, an Account Executive (AE) role with strong technical communication skills.

This full-cycle sales position encompasses both new client acquisition and existing customer support and retention, spanning all segments from SMB to Enterprise. The ideal candidate will possess a technical foundation typically associated with Sales Engineers, coupled with the sales acumen of an Account Executive.
