THE ROLE
We’re hiring a GTM Strategist to help scale Unit’s revenue engine at a pivotal inflection point. This is a hands-on, high-impact role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, is excited to build the systems that drive revenue from the ground up, and wants to help shape the future of embedded finance.

This is a full-time role based in our New York office (Tribeca), with 5 days/week in person.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Own the full commercial lifecycle — from sourcing and discovery through solution design, negotiation, and close — with a strong bias toward outbound execution and strategic dealcraft.
- Act as a trusted advisor to founders, CEOs, and product leaders at vertical SaaS and fintech companies, helping them reimagine their product roadmap and monetization strategies through embedded finance.
- Design and iterate on the sales process and playbook, shaping everything from messaging and qualification criteria to tooling and pipeline infrastructure.
- Partner cross-functionally with Marketing and Product to develop and test demand generation strategies, customer narratives, and outbound motions.
- Translate market insights into product direction by delivering structured, high-signal feedback from customer conversations to Product and Engineering teams.
- Represent Unit in the market by leading prospect briefings, partner sessions, and speaking at key industry events and ecosystem gatherings.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
- 6–8 years of experience in a consultative B2B sales, founder, or strategic advisory role (e.g. investment banking, private equity, consulting, or GTM at an early-stage startup).
- Proven ability to work cross-functionally, influence without authority, and operate with ownership in ambiguous situations.
- Excellent storytelling and communication skills—you can simplify technical ideas and tailor them to diverse stakeholders.
- Deep curiosity about fintech and excitement about how infrastructure businesses can reshape industries.
