Federal Account Executive (DC Metro)

SentiLink provides innovative identity and risk solutions, empowering institutions and individuals to transact confidently with one another.

By building the future of identity verification in the United States and reinventing the currently clunky, ineffective, and expensive process, we believe strongly that the future will be 10x better.

We’ve had tremendous traction and are growing extremely quickly. Already our real-time APIs have helped verify hundreds of millions of identities, beginning with financial services. In 2021, we raised a $70M Series B round, led by Craft Ventures to rapidly scale our best in class products. We’ve earned coverage and awards from TechCrunch, CNBC, Bloomberg, Forbes, Business Insider, PYMNTS, American Banker, LendIt, and have been named to the Forbes Fintech 50 list consecutively since 2023. Last but not least, we’ve even been a part of history -- we were the first company to go live with the eCBSV and testified before the United States House of Representatives.

As a Federal Account Executive, you will be responsible for selling SentiLink solutions to Federal Agencies. You’ll do this by helping them solve their fraud and identity problems using our products and developing long-term relationships with our partners. Because we are a startup, we expect you to help build our company by wearing several hats as we scale.

• Represent SentiLink in accordance with our corporate values at all times 

Requirements:

• 5+ years of successful experience in sales and business development

• Track record of successfully employing a top-down sales motion for complex technical products

• Experience selling into the Federal Government and or Department of Defense

• Familiarity with identity verification or other fraud detection solutions (or a strong willingness to learn)

• Self-motivated, detail-oriented, with a big appetite for winning and a hustling mentality

• Experience in fraud, identity verification, or another analytical discipline in program integrity is a plus

• Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States and must live in the United States

• $300,000/year - $350,000/year OTE

• Employer paid group health insurance for you and your dependents
