Job description
# Account Director
Location: Remote New York, NY, Boston, MA, Austin, TX, or San Francisco, CA
##
### **About the job:**
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. Ship faster and more confidently with global coverage across 600,000+ devices, 800+ payment methods, 150+ countries, and 100+ languages. To learn more, visit [](https://testlio.com/).
We are hiring an **Account Director** 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.
##
### **Why will you love this job?**
- **Drive high-impact deal strategy:** 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.
- **Autonomy to build from scratch:** 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.
