Full-cycle, quota-carrying AE owning territory end-to-end: self-source pipeline, run discovery, build ROI business cases, partner on demos, and close $30K-$100K+ deals to hit ~ $1M quota. Maintain Salesforce, move fast on ~45-day cycles, and travel ~40%.

Stratus, is the leading cloud-based platform for MEP contractors.  We’re on a mission to revolutionize the construction industry by providing innovative data driven solutions that seamlessly layer across a contractor’s entire workflow from design, to fabrication, to installation.

The Role

This is a full-cycle, quota-carrying closing role for someone who loves to hunt. You’ll own your territory end to end — building pipeline, running discovery, making the business case, and closing $30K–$100K+ deals with MEP contractors across the country. You won’t wait on inbound leads or hand off to a sales team; you are the sales team, backed by a bench of five Solutions Engineers and a customer success org that sells alongside you.

We’re still writing a lot of our playbooks. If that excites you, you’ll thrive here. If you need a fully built-out process on day one, this probably isn’t your seat.


What You’ll Do

Own full-cycle sales in your territory — prospecting through close — and consistently exceed a ~$1M annual quota

Self-source pipeline through disciplined, multi-channel outbound: cold calls, personalized email, networking, and referrals (no SDRs here — you build it)

Run sharp discovery with operational buyers (CFOs, COOs, presidents) and technical champions (VDC/BIM leaders, VPs of operations), and translate their pain into a clear ROI and business case

Partner with Solutions Engineers to deliver demos and narratives that land with each trade’s specific priorities

Move fast — commercial cycles run ~45 days — and keep Salesforce clean, current, and forecast-ready

Sharpen competitive intelligence and articulate why Stratus wins where point solutions can’t


What You’ll Bring

2–3+ years as a quota-carrying, full-cycle AE with a documented track record of hitting or beating number (this isn’t a first-AE-seat role)

Experience selling operational, multi-stakeholder B2B software — think project management, manufacturing, or similar — where you built ROI cases and ran a real value-selling motion (not high-velocity, single-tool transactional sales)

A genuine hunter’s mentality and comfort self-sourcing pipeline

Success in an early-growth environment (think Series B/C) — scrappy, coachable, and comfortable with ambiguity and change

A data-driven approach and enthusiasm for using AI to work smarter (it’s core to how we operate and what we sell)

Strong discovery, presentation, and business-case skills; familiarity with a methodology like MEDDIC/MEDDPICC is a plus

Proficiency in Salesforce (or similar CRM) and a knack for picking up new tools quickly

Open to ~40% travel


Bonus Points

Experience selling into construction, contractors, or the built environment

Prior quota-carrying success at a Series B/C SaaS company


Why Stratus

At Stratus, you'll elevate your sales career in a supportive and dynamic environment. This fully remote opportunity lets you balance work and life while making a tangible impact. You'll get a fast ramp and high deal volume — reps here get a lot of at-bats, and several have closed in their first month. As a Commercial Account Executive, you'll play a crucial role in helping drive our mission to transform the construction industry. Grow with us as we make an impact!
