<h1>Account Director </h1>
<p>Location: Remote New York, NY, Boston, MA, Austin, TX, or San Francisco, CA</p>
<h2> </h2>
<h3><strong>About the job: </strong></h3>
<p>Testlio’s fully managed crowdsourced testing platform, powered by our proprietary intelligence technology - LeoAI EngineTM, integrates expert, on-demand testers directly into your release process.

<p>We are hiring an <strong>Account Director</strong> to focus on new business acquisition and open new enterprise logos across product-led companies. In this role, you will be required to be a hunter, to open doors, build a pipeline from scratch, and lead complex multi-stakeholder deal cycles with senior product and engineering executives. Joining our Growth team, you will act as a key revenue driver targeting $300K+ annual contract value opportunities. This is not an account management or renewal-focused role. </p>
<h2> </h2>
<h3><strong>Why will you love this job?</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Drive high-impact deal strategy:</strong> You will own complex, multi-threaded sales cycles from initial prospecting to procurement, closing six-figure deals ($300K+ ACV) with product and engineering leaders. Success here looks like someone who can navigate a real sales cycle — multiple influencers, a technical evaluation, procurement, and a business case — not a transactional, single-call close.</li>
<li><strong>Autonomy to build from scratch:</strong> You get to operate as an entrepreneurial hunter in a defined territory, using your market knowledge to build and execute your own pipeline generation strategy.</li>
</ul>
