Los Angeles, CA On-site Full-time $140K–$185K base ~$260K–$375K OTE Equity Vast.ai runs one of the leading GPU compute exchanges in the world, and we're moving fast in one of the most competitive markets in tech. Demand for GPUs is exploding, our product surface is expanding, and sales are on track to 10x. We're looking for a hands-on Head of Sales to seize that moment. This role reports directly to the COO. You will initially lead two quota-carrying reps across enterprise demand and strategic supply. Over the next 12–18 months, you will determine the appropriate team structure, hire against demonstrated capacity, and turn our early sales motion into a repeatable operating system. This is a player-manager role at an inflection point. You will spend the majority of your time coaching reps, running sales operations, and building the tooling and incentive systems that let us scale without breaking. The revenue engine and team already exist; your mandate is to grow them aggressively. As our product offerings and outreach expand, you'll be the person who scales the sales org behind it—growing the team, the pipeline, and the playbook in lockstep with the business.
