<p><strong>ABOUT BASELAYER</strong></p> <hr> <p>Every business in America needs a bank account to exist. The system that decides whether they're real, who's behind them, and whether they're a risk, runs on infrastructure from the 1980s. We're rebuilding that layer from scratch.</p> <p>Baselayer is the identity layer for institutions across the United States: the most complete business graph in America and every human tied to it. We fuse public records, IRS data, sanctions lists, web signals, and fraud telemetry from 2,200+ financial institutions into a single graph that resolves any business and the humans behind it in milliseconds. The legacy credit bureaus took 50 years to build something that gets 60% match rates. We've built something that gets 98% in under two years.</p> <p>Today we're trusted by over 20% of financial institutions in America including FIS, Rho, Socure and top five US banks. But the graph is becoming infrastructure for anyone who needs to know if a business is real and worth trusting: gig platforms, marketplaces, AI companies, and commerce infrastructure at scale.</p> <p>Trust is the substrate of every financial transaction. We're rebuilding it.</p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE TEAM</strong></p> <hr> <p>AI agents are starting to transact: opening accounts, buying services, moving money on behalf of the businesses and people behind them. Every one of those transactions has a counterparty asking the question banks have always asked: who am I dealing with, and can I trust them? Today's identity infrastructure wasn't built to answer it at agent speed.</p> <p>The Agentic Economy team is extending Baselayer's business graph into the trust layer for agentic commerce: verifiable credentials that bind an agent to the verified business and human behind it, a registry counterparties can query in real time, and verification APIs that plug into the networks, platforms, and protocols where agent transactions happen.</p> <p>We run like a startup inside a startup: a small senior team led by our GM of Agentic Economy, working directly with payment networks, banks, wallet providers, and agent platforms. The category is being defined right now; the standards, seats, and infrastructure decisions of the next 18 months will be consequential for a decade.</p> <p data-start="1226" data-end="1244"><strong>WHAT YOU'LL DO</strong></p> <hr> <ul> <li data-start="1247" data-end="1360">Own the full sales cycle including prospecting, qualification, discovery, demos, pilots, negotiation, and close</li> <li data-start="1363" data-end="1451">Build and manage a healthy pipeline across SMB, mid-market, and or enterprise accounts</li> <li data-start="1454" data-end="1524">Execute outbound prospecting sequences to generate new opportunities</li> <li data-start="1527" data-end="1631">Lead discovery conversations to deeply understand customer pain points and align Baselayer’s solutions</li> <li data-start="1634" data-end="1703">Run high-quality product demos and manage customer trials or pilots</li> <li data-start="1706" data-end="1811">Partner closely with Product and Engineering to share customer feedback and influence roadmap decisions</li> <li data-start="1814" data-end="1899">Collaborate with GTM leadership to refine positioning, messaging, and sales motions</li> <li data-start="1902" data-end="1995">Represent Baselayer with professionalism, credibility, and thought leadership in the market</li> </ul> <p data-start="2501" data-end="2535"><strong>MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS</strong></p> <hr> <ul> <li data-start="2538" data-end="2650">2+ or more years of experience in SaaS sales, fintech, financial services, or a highly analytical GTM role</li> <li data-start="2653" data-end="2720">A consistent track record of meeting or exceeding revenue targets</li> <li data-start="2723" data-end="2814">Experience running complex, consultative sales cycles with technical or analytical buyers</li> <li data-start="2817" data-end="2880">Strong discovery, storytelling, and objection-handling skills</li> <li data-start="2883" data-end="2949">Comfort operating in ambiguity and rapidly evolving environments</li> <li data-start="2952" data-end="3045">A proactive, self-directed mindset where you create momentum rather than wait for direction</li> </ul> <p data-start="3052" data-end="3075"><strong>WHAT SETS YOU APART</strong></p> <hr> <ul> <li>High intellectual curiosity and fast learning ability</li> <li>Strong desire for feedback, growth, and continuous improvement</li> <li>Ambition for equity, leadership, and meaningful ownership in the company you are helping build</li> <li>Ability to operate with urgency, accountability, and high standards</li> <li data-start="2002" data-end="2102">You are hungry, competitive, and motivated to win.
