Many owners already run Toast, Square or Clover, so a big part of the job is showing them, in their own language, why switching is worth it.

What You'll Focus On

Build your own pipeline across Seattle's Thai restaurants through cold calls, walk-ins and referrals

Run demos with restaurant owners in Thai or English and close deals, often against Toast, Square and Clover

Hand signed restaurants to our technicians for installation

Self-directed and organized enough to run your own territory

Lives in or near Seattle; valid driver's license and reliable transportation

What We Offer

Target first-year earnings (OTE) for this role are $120,000 – $160,000, made up of a base salary of $50,000 – $80,000 plus uncapped commission. Base salary depends on experience; commission depends on results, and top performers earn above the target range.
