We are hiring for this role in San Francisco (this is not a remote position)
About Ciro
Sales is about building relationships 🤝 — but you wouldn’t know it from watching most sales teams that sell to SMBs today.
Ciro’s on a mission to build the ZoomInfo and Apollo for companies that sell to SMB and Local businesses, like Dental & Medical Practices, Restaurants, and Construction. Our current customers love our data quality, and the industry’s competitors have been around for 100 years and have not innovated in decades.
We are backed by some of the best investors in the world, including Y Combinator, SV Angel, CRV, and the founders of Flexport, BuildZoom, and Tegus. The current team has experience at places like Google, Facebook, AWS, Zoom, and more.
The role
We're looking for a trailblazing first sales hire who can help us shape sales growth, team culture, and the company itself. Ciro is on a journey to building a large, category-defining company. We push and support each other daily to reach excellence. If successful, this individual will be first in line to become Ciro’s first AE. If all of this is what you're looking for, read on. We're excited to meet you!
You’ll report to Ciro’s President (Ross) and work closely with the entire team given our size.

Why you should join:
This is a unique opportunity to work directly with the founders and help build out the sales motion. We are in an opportune position, having found early signs of PMF through founder-led sales (2 of our 3 founders are former VPs of Sales/Revenue). We are looking for someone that is excited to build on our strong existing base and who is looking to be here for the long run.
We are looking forward to meeting you!
Sales is about building relationships — but you wouldn’t know it from watching most sales teams today. The average sales rep spends 1-2 days per week researching and list-building instead of spending time with customers.
We’re building the most comprehensive index of small businesses in the world, combined with elegant software that gives salespeople superpowers. Our stodgy competitors (e.g., Dunn and Bradstreet) have been around for 100 years and have not innovated in decades.
Ciro is a tight-knit team of engineers, sales execs, and product managers with experience from Meta, Stanford, Google and Bain & Co. Two of the founders served as VPs of Sales at high-growth SaaS startups and understand our domain deeply. We are cash flow positive and are backed by some of the best investors in the world, including Y Combinator, SV Angel, CRV, and the founders of Flexport, BuildZoom, and Tegus.
If our mission speaks to you, we’d be delighted to meet you. The only thing we love more than our customers is our people! Join us for the adventure of a lifetime 🚀
