This role is open to candidates based in LATAM, Africa, and Eastern Europe. Please note that as this role supports U.S.-based clients, candidates must be available to work during U.S. business hours aligned with the client’s time zone.

Scale Army is a staffing agency dedicated to connecting international talent with US-based companies. We cover a broad range of positions and industries, from customer support and sales roles to engineering and executive-level positions.

Role Intent

We're filling an internal role, and we're looking to hire an Account Executive to turn inbound interest into signed clients for our engineering staffing and technical hiring solutions.

Our AEs are slammed. Demand is high. We need more closers.

We help companies hire:

• Software Engineers
• QA Engineers
• DevOps / Cloud Engineers
• Data Engineers
• Technical operators

Most leads already know they need help.

Your job is to understand their technical hiring challenges, guide the conversation, and close the deal.

You will speak with:

• CEOs
• Founders
• CTOs
• Heads of Engineering
• Technical operators

Your job is to make technical leaders feel safe, confident, and excited about building teams with us — and then get them to sign.

You report to the Sales Manager and work closely with the CEO and senior sales leadership.

You are evaluated on revenue generated, not activity completed.

This Is Not a Typical Sales Role

You will not:

• Cold call
• Build lead lists
• Run outbound campaigns

You will:

• Think
• Ask smart questions
• Advise
• Challenge assumptions
• Close deals

This is consultative selling, not order-taking.

Who You Talk To All Day

Your buyers are typically:

• CTOs
• Heads of Engineering
• Technical founders
• CEOs of SaaS and tech-enabled companies

They come to us because:

• Hiring engineers is slow and expensive
• Their roadmap is blocked
• Their team is overloaded
• They need to scale quickly

They know the pain.

They don’t always know the best solution.

You help them figure that out.

What You Own

You own the journey from:

First call → Signed engagement letter

You are responsible for:

• Running discovery calls
• Guiding hiring strategy conversations
• Handling objections and concerns
• Creating urgency and momentum
• Closing deals

You do not “support revenue.”

You create revenue.

Core Responsibilities

Run High-Quality Discovery Calls

• Lead conversations with technical buyers
• Ask smart questions about:
• Engineering roadmap
• Current team structure
• Hiring challenges
• Delivery bottlenecks
• Diagnose what they actually need (often different from what they think)

A client may ask for “a senior developer.”

You may help them realize they actually need:

• Two mid-level engineers
• A QA engineer first
• DevOps before backend
• Or a technical project manager

You are expected to win those debates.

Technical Hiring Strategy Conversations

You will regularly discuss roles such as:

• Backend / Frontend / Full-Stack Engineers
• QA Engineers
• DevOps / Cloud Engineers
• Data Engineers
• Technical Project Managers

You don’t need to code.

But you must understand:

• How engineering teams are structured
• When companies need specific roles
• How technical hiring impacts delivery speed

We will quiz you on this.

Close Deals

• Guide prospects toward
