Founding AE
Why this role exists
Hellyeah is the performance-growth engine inside Final Round AI, a profitable AI company raising its Series C. We run and optimize paid media for AI and consumer-app companies with real budgets, and we win on value-based optimization that ties spend to retained customers and revenue.
Our deals close on live expertise and warm trust, and today that runs through our founders. The open gap is the top of the funnel: a repeatable way to source, qualify, and book the right meetings fast. That is your mandate. You own the top of the funnel, carry deals through discovery and the audit, and document what works so it scales past you. You operate like an early-stage founder with a product that already has proof.
What you'll own in the first 90 days
Build pipeline from day one across outbound to qualified advertisers, warm-network and agency referrals, inbound from our paid ads, and events (Tech Week, Disrupt, our SF office).
Run the full cycle to the line: qualification, discovery, and a value-based audit. On the biggest deals you bring in the expert to land the close, and you shadow, document, and start closing on your own.
Qualify against a real spend gate. We pursue advertisers who can move the number, and you protect your time by disqualifying fas
