About the team

T:0s mission is to make finance run itself. We are turning accounting into autonomous infrastructure that closes the books reconciles and reports continuously so the people who own the outcome can stop worrying about busy work and start focusing on strategic decisions. Were a small elite builder-focused team inside Airwallex moving at startup speed with a scaled companys infrastructure and distribution behind us.

What youll do

Youll be our first GTM hire. Theres no playbook to hand you - building it is the practice it looks like sending the outbound yourself working inbound lead that comes in getting a founder from first call to paying customer in one conversation and figuring out which channels actually produce before we spend real money on any of them. Youll try a bunch of things every week most wont work and youll find the couple that do and go hard on them.

This role is based in San Francisco.

Responsibilities:

  • Build the GTM engine from scratch. Stand up and personally run our outbound motion lists sequences messaging follow-up. Triage and prioritize inbound. Youre not managing this work; youre doing it.

  • Own the CRM and the sales process end to end. Define the stages keep the data clean and make the pipeline something the whole company can trust.

  • Sell to US startups fast. Our current ICP is US-based seed-to-Series-A companies. The motion needs to be high-volume low-friction and ideally close in a single call - with a clear path toward self-serve and PLG. Youll design for that from day one.

  • Expand where the business goes next. The ICP wont stand still. As we grow youll open new segments yourself - sourcing the leads running longer and more considered sales cycles and building that motion alongside the fast one. Experience with more complex multi-stakeholder deals is a real asset here.

  • Generate your own pipeline. In partnership with our Head of Marketing youre responsible for making leads exist - not waiting for them to arrive.

  • Work closely with Airwallexs Startups team to keep the two motions aligned and compounding.

Who you are

Were looking for people who meet the minimum requirements for this role. The preferred qualifications are great to have but are not mandatory.

Minimum qualifications:

  • Youve been the first (or only) GTM person somewhere before and you liked it. You have a 0-to-1 mentality and real early-stage startup experience.

  • Youve built a sales motion not just operated one someone else already proved out.

  • Youre comfortable selling to founders and operators at small companies - quick calls quick decisions high volume - and youve sold across deal shapes including longer multi-stakeholder cycles.

  • Youre the person who books the thing instead of just suggesting it. If you can get a stranger on a call and leave with a yes and youd rather do something scrappy today than something perfect next week we want to talk.

Preferred qualifications:

  • Experience selling fintech products especially in accounting bookkeeping or the founder finance stack.

  • Have built out and managed a CRM

  • Have utilized AI to automate sales outbounding
